Pragya added that Salman was unhappy with the decision, and tried till ‘the last minute’ to keep her in the film.
Main Chala is sung by Guru Randhawa and Iulia Vantur, who also feature in the music video, alongside Salman and Pragya. The song released on Saturday. Pragya joined him and Iulia on the Bigg Boss 15 stage on Sunday to promote Main Chala. She also said she wanted to do everything right and even asked Salman’s permission before she could touch him during the shoot. “I was just being extra-sure and I asked him on the first day, ‘Can I touch you?’ It’s a romantic song, it has cute moments and you have to have good chemistry to be comfortable. I wanted to make sure that sir is in a good mood. I didn’t want to do anything which would make him say, ‘She is doing too much.’ So I asked for permission, especially on the first day, but then after that, I got comfortable. Sir said, ‘No problem, you can touch me’.”
Antim: The Final Truth, featured Aayush Sharma as the primary antagonist, and Mahima Makwana.
