For probably the first time since their infamous fight at Katrina Kaif’s birthday party more than 5 years ago, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan spoke about his one-time good friend Shahrukh Khan.
On the opening episode of Karan Johar’s popular television chat show Koffee with Karan, there were moments when Salman got emotional while talking about Shahrukh – the relationship that they once shared, the time they spent while shooting for films like Karan Arjun and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and their famous hug at Baba Siddiqui’s Iftar party.

Salman also said that he was always the first to try and patch up with Shahrukh.
Here’s what Salman had to say.. excepts from Koffee With Karan.
There was never a war. Two guys got along fine, and one night they didn’t get along . It was something that hurt me, he could have come the same night and finished it off. He chose not to and I thought let it be.
There was Shahrukh, me and three or four other people (at Katrina’s birthday bash). I dont know how it got out (to the media) so quickly. So fast, that the first thing in the morning there was this big war. Camps were being formed.
After that, he came on to your show. He spoke about that. He passes my house 4 or 5 times a day. Why this show, he could have come over to my house, rung the door bell.
Even the earlier time, when we had a issue, it was me who went up to him and said forget it its all over. It was me. Perhaps, he didn’t know what to expect from me. My reaction. Sohail also said this. I am ok with that.
(After the Eid hug) I messaged him once, he messaged me once.
He has got his own life, I’ve got my own life. I am 100% sure that we won’t be best of friends again. There is a lot of respect that I’ve had for him and I’ve loved him over the years.
When people bitch about him and say shit about him, they think they can earn brownie points from me. They are very wrong, because I hate that. I’ve spent a lot of time with him. I may not see eye to eye, I may not like him that much or whatever. But I’ve spent a lot of time with him, at my house, on the sets, on Karan Arjun, we’ve partied together and I really like the guy.
If people come and talk bad about him, I don’t permit that.. at all! I don’t encourage it at all. I’ve loved the guy, I really like him as a younger brother.
He was my sisters friend and Sangeeta’s friend. We’ve known each since the longest time. So I’ve those memories and I’ll keep those memories. The way he has grown, God has given him a lot, so has he given me. He has got his family, he has gone his way and I’ve gone my way. He doesn’t need me, I don’t need him. It’s all good.
From what i can remember, each have played thier own part. One thing i know, Srk has never badmouthed salman not even once even smetyms when he had an opportunity to do so to save his image. Salman on the other hand said many terrible things to srk even threatened to do him harm when thier fight were hot then. Sallu was really pissed off. Like what he(sallu) said above, he’s may be to hard to approach. Maybe srk didn’t knw how to come to u becos of unsteady mood swing. So sohail might be right. No one what started the fight except this two. Some of u says srk takes a jig on aamir, slaman, etc so has other entertainers & comedians & he did so even when he was friends with this actors & also made fun of himself & family & also his closed ones. But when he is asked abt his fellow actors he always says good about them even when he had oppourtunity to badmouth them. He would rather say good abt ppl rather than say evil. Many ppl dislike surider farah’s husband, he cld hve said bad about him n anyway he’s a nobody but he has respect on his friend & refuse to stoop low & still helped to promote his movie.
Salmn-Shahrukh jodi i like, Salman-Aamir jodi i hate. Aamir came into salman’s life when he knw Srk was out of the picture.
I don’t thing it will be a wise idea for both of them to work together, because now fans of both fight on cyber but then they will fight in halls.
@anand,why do u take jokes so serious?
Salman also jokes on srk. Neither u nor I should get offended about it.but during god tussi great ho promotion, what salman said that was pretty much on serious note.he said,only god can make them friend after oneday of their fight.then how he can expect srk come and say let’s finish it.he also said something not in good note about srk’s struggling career period .that’s what I didn’t like about him and I wrote about it. I know what salman said about srk in kwk form his heart and appreciate it,but he and his fans should have appreciate srk’s feelings too when he said those things about salman in kwk last season .he himself knew that it’s not for publicity or trip. i think u will also agree with me if u have watched that episode too with the eyes of affection that’s it.Thank god ,they both have learned to be mature man.
Those who are talking about arrogance of srk,with out that little arrogance srk will not be the srk.had rather u don’t like him.but plz don’t tell him to chance.
Sachin………….11………
Where are u ?……are u ok?…..I mean this the first time u haven’t comment yet on srk ‘s article or salman’s article.
U always bad mouth about srk,so salman hates u….. …..too.
Lynda,I want to give 1000000000…….like.I like who likes srk,u are sweet too.it’s amazing to know that all srkians think the same way.I don’t like amir.. to me amir was the one,Jo aag mein ghee Dala and it was surprising to see amir becoming so friendly with salman because.before the fight,amir ‘s equation with salman was not as good as now.
Though salman is unpredictable but good at heart,but amir is as a person too calculated and I think he is one who is taking advantage of salman like katrina.srk-salman have so much common but sad it’s probably too hard to handle so much good ness.inko Bura nazar lagi,…he…he..e
It is proved that SRK fans are cheap-stars & they can’t digest the fact that how wonderful Salman Khan is. The problem with SRK is that he is insecure & arrogant! Salman was the one who helped SRK during his struggling days but SRK went on to become an arrogant star later on ^ started snubbing Salmna. LOVED SALMAN FOR WHAT HE SAID ABOUT SRK. THAT WAS GENUINE & TOTALLY FROM HEART! THAT’S WHY HE IS THE MOST LOVED SUPERSTAR OF INDIA.
Joke of the century! Rakhi Sawant is also a virgin! Salman had/has no girlfriend and Sunny Leone had no boyfriend either. From his expression, it was 100% sure that he was lying for good and to avoid controversy OR Virgin Ka Matlab Bol Gaya Unko. By the way, Shaheen, Sangeeta, Somy, Aish, Kat and even Zarine and Lullia will be laughing their ass off.
@Laila : I have said before n repeating it again
that either you are blind or illiterate. Yes, I am
saying this despite i dont know you personally. You
are asking Sachin 11 what about an idiot called ‘ @
beingsallufan’ who always comments bad on Salman
articles? that loser cant even afford his own id n
needs Salman n his fans name even to abuse
Salman. Cant believe ? go n check all the latest
Salman pages. FYI, he is a srk fan !!!! there are
haters on both sides. Dont behave as srk fans are
saints.
I think srk shld go to salman house n bury d difrnces n gives a movie like kkhh people r waiting to c a good wrk togethr again we all r grwn people shld act like one they call bollywood as family bt nvr belv in that hope dey read my msg
KRRISH 3 is India’smovie No.1 and Hrithik Roshan – the Living LEGEND is the New Box office KING…..Kisi ki AUKAT nahi jo Krrish 3 ke 245 Crores Nett ka record tor sake…Haters take a chill pill.
i hope that they they may be friends agian but not as they were 5 or 6 years ago
