Did You Know Salman Khan SAVED John Abraham From Getting Removed By Katrina Kaif In ‘New York’? Here's What Happened! (Watch Video)

Conflicts and rivalries are widespread in the glamorous world of Bollywood, and one such story centres on Salman Khan, John Abraham, and Katrina Kaif. All of it allegedly began when Katrina was allegedly replaced in John Abraham's movie 'Saaya,' which led her to seek comfort in the arms of Bhaijaan. But things changed when Katrina became famous and got a part in the Yash Raj Films movie 'New York,' which stars John as the male lead.

In a recent interview, Salman Khan revealed the history of hostility between Katrina and John. He revealed that Katrina had been adamant that John wasn't chosen for 'New York,' harbouring resentment from their earlier experience. Salman counselled her to overcome the hostility and be the greater person, though. He even claimed that Katrina and he had a positive influence on how John was cast in the movie.

John Abraham spoke on Salman's 'Badappan' statement on Rajat Sharma's Aap Ki Adalat after hearing about it. He clarified that the movie in question was 'Saaya,' where he had filmed a scene with Katrina, but the next day, she had been enigmatically missing from the set. Later, he was told by the director that she had been replaced. John claimed he had no authority to choose or substitute heroines because his movie 'Jism' hadn't even been released at the time.

John meekly expressed his gratitude in response to the host's mocking over Salman's statement, recognising Katrina's star power and crediting her with providing him and Kabir Khan a successful film.

The group on Reddit received a video recording of this encounter, which led to dark humour and amusing digs about this childish feud. Commenters on the matter couldn't help but make fun of the trio's acting abilities and the claimed lack of professionalism throughout the casting and replacement fiasco.

Some fans bemoaned John's supposed haughtiness, citing instances of his interactions with them, while others bemoaned the music industry' propensity to elevate celebrity offspring over deserving up-and-comers.
