Katrina Kaif was later re-cast in her role. Salman and SRK have previously shared screen space in the 2002 movie Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) and Karan Arjun (1995). Salman also appeared in a  special song sequence in Shah Rukh Khan’s latest film  Zero. Baiju Bawra was directed by Vijay Bhatt, which made Meena Kumari  the recipient of the first-ever Filmfare Best Actress Award in 1954. Set in Mughal Emperor Akbar’s court, Baiju Bawra follows Baiju, a young musician who challenges maestro Tansen to a musical duel in order to avenge the death of his father, which he holds Tansen responsible for.
