If
there
is
one
guy
out
there
in
the
entertainment
industry
who
can
put
an
end
to
all
the
speculation
on
the
status
of
the
Salman-Govinda
relationship,
it
is
David
Dhawan.
David
who
has
been
closely
associated
with
both
Salman
and
Govinda,
has
done
the
maximum
number
of
films
with
the
two
stars.
He's
now
in
the
process
of
bringing
them
together
for
the
sequel
to
Partner.
But
the
problem
is
with
the
stories
about
the
Partners'
real-life
rift.
They
are
taking
a
toll
on
David.
And
he
has
decided
to
do
something
about
the
crisis.
He
is
toying
with
the
idea
of
hosting
a
party
to
celebrate
the
Salman-Govinda
friendship.
"And
why
just
the
Salman-Govinda
friendship?
It
will
be
to
celebrate
the
Salman-Govinda-David
friendship.
I
get
very
disturbed
when
I
hear
about
their
so-called
rift.
Arrey
yaar,
both
are
far
above
such
bickering.
Look
at
Govinda's
track-record.
He
has
been
at
the
top
for
decades.
As
for
Salman,
with
Dabangg
he
has
proved
he
is
beyond
all
competition.
I
hate
to
see
people
talking
about
two
of
my
closest
friends
in
this
negative
way.
So
yes
a
party
celebrating
Salman
and
Govinda's
friendship
and
my
friendship
with
them
seems
a
good
idea," says
David
emotionally.
Says
David,
"I'm
committed
to
direct
a
film
Rascals
for
Sanjay
Dutt
Productions
from
next
month.
Dutt
is
one
of
my
oldest
and
closest
friends.
The
first
film
I
directed
had
Sanju
in
it.
Then
I'm
committed
to
directing
Partner
2
for
Salman
Khan
and
Govinda.
So
my
career
is
devoted
to
friends."
Family
would
naturally
have
to
look
elsewhere.
David's
younger
son
Varun
is
being
launched
as
a
leading
man
by
Karan
Johar.
Says
David,
"All
I
can
tell
you
at
the
moment
is
that
my
elder
son
Rohit
is
directing
his
first
film
Desi
Boyz
and
my
younger
son
Varun
is
going
to
be
an
actor.
I'd
have
liked
to
launch
both
in
their
respective
careers.
But
I
am
committed
to
making
films
with
my
friends."
Rascals
will
feature
Dutt,
who
is
one
of
David's
oldest
and
dearest
friends,
with
Ajay
Devgn
and
Kangna
Ranaut.
It
will
be
a
typical
David
Dhawan
comedy.
Argues
David,
"Why
not?
Why
open
the
car
bonnet
to
check
the
motor
when
the
vehicle
is
running
just
fine?
When
others
are
copying
my
style
why
should
I
move
away
from
it?"
