Contrary to reports Salman is not leaving his shooting in Dublin to return to Mumbai for Bigg Boss and to participate in an item song for Joker.

The Yashraj spokesperson confirms that there will be no break in the shooting in Dublin.

“Salman is not taking a break from the shooting in Dublin. He will, however, be returning to shoot for Bigg Boss between two schedules of Ek Tha Tiger. ”

It was planned by director Shirish Kunder as the big surprise for the Dabangg girl.

An item song for Dabangg’s Rajjo with Chulbul Pandey for Joker had been elaborately planned for Sonakshi. And everyone in the unit was under an oath of secrecy regarding Salman’s flash appearance.

Says a source, “Farah Khan had rehearsed Salman’s steps for the item song in Joker before he left for Dublin to shoot for Ek Tha Tiger. But Sonakshi had not been told about it.

Ever since Dabangg where Malaika did Munni badnaam with the superstar Sonakshi had been craving to do an item number with Salman.

So Shirish and Farah went through a great deal of drama of concealment to make sure that Sonakshi did not know that Salman would join in the item song.

Salman’s grand entry was planned like Amitabh Bachchan in the iconic Salaam-e-ishq song in Muqaddar Ka Sikandar.

But here in Joker Sonakshi’s surprise on suddenly seeing Salman would have been real. ”

Alas, all these elaborate plans have come to nought. Salman would now be unable to be part of the item song.

Because of Salman’s illness and the botched schedule, the superstar is unable to spare time for the number.

Says the source, “Now Farah had to change the choreography for the item song overnight. Sonakshi has also been told that her intended surprise has fallen flat. ”
