Director Anubhav Sinha turns down Salman's request to cast Sooraj?

It was recently informed that Sooraj Pancholi has walked out of Anubhav Sinha's Tum Bin 2, a sequel to his 2001 hit movie Tum Bin but, now we hear that it was the latter, who didn't want the Hero star as his film's male lead.

Seemingly, despite being heavily recommended by Salman Khan, the director declined to cast Sooraj in his film. We hear that he wants to rope in fresh faces for the film.
