Pukar

Earlier Rajkumar Santoshi was to make the film with Sunny Deol and Meenakshi Seshadri as " Ajay" in 1991. When Meenakshi and Santoshi had a fallout, the film was shelved. The script was put on hold because Santoshi decided to make Ghatak instead. In 1998 Boney Kapoor offered a good financial deal to Santoshi and he opted to make the film "Ajay" with Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit. The title Pukar was chosen for the project . This angered Sunny Deol as the idea behind the script had come from him. He felt betrayed by Santoshi. Sunny decided to make another film titled "Ajay" with Suneel Darshan instead.
