As the song was long, Piggy Chops suggested that it would be great if she wore several layers of clothing so that there won’t be much skin show but the director refused.
Priyanka Chopra writes, "The director suggested me to speak to my stylist, so I called him and briefly explained the situation, then passed on the phone to the director. Standing right in front of me, the director said: "Jo bhi ho, chaddiyyan dikhni chahiyen. Nahi toh log picture kyun dekhne aayenge?”
Chopra then confessed that after what the director said she decided to quit the film the very next day. The producer got to know about her decision to quit the film and confronted Priyanka about it when Salman Khan intervened between.
The actor further wrote, "My co-star Salman Khan, who was and is a huge star in India, understood the situation immediately and intervened on my behalf...when the producer arrived, he had a conversation with him that defused the conversation. I'm not sure exactly what he said but the producer was in a much calmer state when he spoke to me."
