Salman Yusuff Khan has walked out of the upcoming new dance show Honhaar Dancing Star as a judge as he got really ticked off with the unprofessionalism of the production house - Rubycon (which comprises of 2-3 partners).
They had no system in place leading to a lot of confusion and shooting delays as well as they were shooting without a creative head. They also had a change of authorities and decision makers, in between the schedule. Salman got even more furious when he came to know that the contestants were being made to sleep in the make-up room, which was totally not acceptable to him as he has been a contestant before.
The show was to be aired on E24 (which is now part of Star).
The other judge was Saroj Khan who is still part of the show.
Prateik Mehta (manager of Salman) said, “Salman is one of the brightest stars we represent and when things were not going the way we were promised in the first place, we realized the producers had no idea of what they were doing. I've never seen a show without a creative head and a director. We kept calling them for costume trials, dance rehearsals and other coordination but we got no concrete reply from them. But the biggest surprise was when the cheques given to us got dishonored because of insufficient funds. That's when we put our foot down and told them to get their act in place which never happened, that's when we decided the show was not for Salman and we walked out of the show.”
