Amaal Mallik has publicly defended his assertion that his father, Daboo Malik, was replaced by Salman Khan in the iconic film 'Maine Pyaar Kiya.' Amaal claims that Daboo shot for the first two schedules of the movie but was later replaced without being informed. In response to Daboo's denial, where he clarified that Amaal was mistaken and that he was actually working on a different film titled 'Sawan Jhoom Utha,' Amaal suggested that his father's reluctance to speak candidly stems from his respect for Salman Khan. This family disagreement has attracted considerable attention on social media, with Amaal stating, “He is just being respectful coz he can’t speak the truth out of respect for his friendship with Salman sir.” Despite the controversy, Amaal remains focused on his work and creativity.
