No, the whistle does NOT stop the play or the try. The try continues until it ends. See R6-7EXCEPTION3. As BBRef said, the play and the try "stopped" or ended when it is certain that the try would be unsuccessful- Rule4-40-4. The first try was unsuccessful when the shooter grabbed the ball again, and then started his second try.
