In an interview, Salman had shared that he didn't agree with the climax of this love triangle and wanted a different ending. 

"I did not agree with the ending in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. Sanjay Leela Bhansali told me that he wanted a depressive high. But frankly, I feel that love is above all traditions. But if you are making a traditional film, then f*** love" Salman said.

Salman Khan wanted Nandini to leave her husband (Ajay) and reunite with lover (Salman), "Nandini should have left her husband and gone with the guy she loved. Her husband was like God to her for what he did. If I had made Hum Dil Chuke Sanam, I would have let her go with the guy she loved,” added Salman Khan. 

Not just that, in the same interview, Salman talks about love and how a girl feels about love and how she uses it in her way, "I don't think that there is a word called love. There is a word called need'. 

Salman also talked about the movie Devdas and the love story depicted in the blockbuster, "That is not love. It is a film about a loser. The writer of the book himself realised that he had destroyed an entire generation," stated Salman Khan.
