The ending showed Nandini (Aish) choosing her husband, Vanraj (Ajay) over her love, Sameer (Salman). Nandini’s conflict and Sameer’s heartbreak were brilliantly portrayed by the actors.

Nandini chose duty over love and it shattered Sameer. You can’t imagine the movie any other way, can you?

If reports are to be belived, Salman was not happy with this ending. In fact he was vehemently opposed to it. How could another man walk away with the love of his life?

Salman, insiders say, was furious and frustrated. As his real-life love affair with Aishwarya Rai was at its peak back then.

Salman couldn’t bear to see his love walk away with another man, even if it was only for the camera.

Salman even told his director-friend Sooraj Barjatya to help convince Bhansali to change the ending.

According to a report in 2016, Sooraj spent a good 90 minutes convincing Bhansali as to why “prem” (love) should win over “kartavya” (duty).
