Mumbai: A strong rumour in film trade says that that the shooting of David Dhawan’s home production Partner starring Govinda-Salman Khan has been delayed. It is said that the shooting is likely be pushed to next year, since Salman Khan is too pre-occupied with his backlog blockbusters like Jaan-E-Mann, Babul, Salaam-E-Ishq etc. In the meantime, David is supposed to embark on a fresh project.

But David Dhawan denies the news. “How can Partner be delayed? It is my first own home production. Salman has given me confirmed dates in August, October, November and December. The film will be completed in December.” However, Dhawan did not want to talk about the budget of the film. “It is a big budget movie. That is all I can say now,” he says.
