‘He has never questioned me’Reacting to claims that Salman can be difficult to work with, David told Bollywood Hungama, “Everybody goes through this.

Speaking about their equation, he added, “He and I—we are fire together. We love to work.”
Recalling a recent interaction, David said, “I was shooting and he came to meet me and said, ‘Yaar, let’s do something right now.’ He’s always like that.”
