Salman had to put on hold many of his films

Actor Salman Khan's legal hassles and constant trysts with trouble have begun to take a toll on his career.

Apparently, Raj Kumar Santoshi's wanted to cast the actor in his magnum opus Ramayan. According to informed sources, "Salman was Santoshi's first choice for the part of Lord Rama. Salman on his part, had always expressed a desire to play Lord Rama in the movie adaptation."

"Unfortunately at this stage of his career when things could go either way for Salman's court proceedings, playing Rama would've een suicidal to Santoshi's project. He opted for a safer bet, Ajay Devgan," says our source.

That's not all. A large portion of Jaan-E-Mann had to be delayed or re-shot when Salman's hair went awry. "In fact, the first twenty minutes of Jaan-E-Mann had to be shot three times over," reveals the source.

And now, just when things appeared to be turning to normalcy, Salman had to proceed to Jodhpur on Thursday for a court hearing, thereby leaving the unit of Rumi Jaffrey's God Tussi Great Ho with one sudden, though welcome, holiday.

The actor had to put on hold many of his films like David Dhawan's Partner, Shirish Kunder's Jaan-E-Mann, Ravi Chopra's Baabul, Nikhil Advani's Salaam-E-Ishq and Rumi Jaffrey's God Tussi Great Ho.

One of Salman's delighted co-stars says, "This is one reason why I truly enjoy working with Salman. One can always count on unscheduled holidays."
