The report quoted the source as saying, “Sajid promised his old friend Sunil Shetty that he would give Ahan a second shot at success after Ahan’s debut film Tadap did not work at the box office. Hence, he roped in his Housefull 4 star Pooja Hegde to star opposite Ahan in Sanki, which he was confident would revive Ahan’s career.” ‘It made no business sense to produce this project’ The report went on to add, “Sajid is having second thoughts about the film. Ahan’s staff costs -, which were billed to production, were so high that Sajid threatened to pull the plug on the film, adding that it made no business sense to produce this project.” Apparently, Suniel Shetty had to step in to request Sajid not to let go of the project, and even offered to help in the costs.
