Salman versus Shahrukh – the chill continues

Once a foe always a foe’ is not exactly the code that Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan live by. They have fought in the past (on the sets of Chalte Chalte when Ash was breaking off from Sallu) but they made up at Farah Khan ’s wedding over four years back. New cracks appeared in their friendship last year when Sallu and SRK had a big fight at Katrina Kaif ’s birthday party. The two haven’t talked to each other since then.

So it was with bated expectation the media, and presumably the guests, too, waited when Salman and SRK attended the sangeet of actress Amrita Arora who got married to boyfriend Shakeel Ladak last week.




Of course, one did not expect SRK and Sallu to walk out arm-in-arm like some long lost buddies, but one did anticipate that either of the two would break the ice with the other, just like it happened at Farah Khan’s sangeet ceremony.

Alas! Such a reunion did not happen this time. Far from breaking the ice, the two stars did not even say ‘hi’ to each other and avoided each other like bad news. SRK stuck to a small group of his friends at the party while Salman chilled out with his buddies.

Later, SRK left the party alone while his wife Gauri Khan stayed back. Salman, too, walked out alone. When he was questioned by mediapersons whether he had patched up with SRK at the party, Sallu shot back: “Why do you care?”
