SRK and Salman Khan's friendship
The friendship between Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan has been one of Bollywood’s most talked-about bonds. Both of these superstars, often referred to as the "Kings" of Bollywood, have shared a deep and complex relationship spanning decades.
In the 1990s and early 2000s, SRK and Salman were known to be very close. They starred together in multiple films, such as 'Karan Arjun' (1995), which was a massive box office success and showcased their on-screen chemistry. Their camaraderie extended beyond the screen, with the two often seen at parties and public events together, solidifying their friendship.
However, their relationship hit a rough patch in the mid-2000s. Their infamous fallout at Katrina Kaif's birthday party in 2008 made headlines, and for several years, the two kept their distance, leading to rumors of a bitter rivalry. During this period, fans and media speculated on their professional competition, often pitting the two actors against each other in terms of box office numbers and film successes.
Despite the publicized feud, both actors always maintained a certain level of respect for one another, with neither speaking ill of the other in the media. The tension eventually thawed, and the two reconciled in 2014 during Arpita Khan’s wedding, where they were seen embracing each other, much to the delight of their fans.
Since then, their friendship has strengthened, with Shah Rukh and Salman publicly expressing their admiration and support for one another. In fact, they’ve gone on to make cameo appearances in each other’s films, much to the joy of Bollywood enthusiasts. Their bond has evolved over time, and today, they stand as pillars of the Indian film industry, representing mutual respect and camaraderie.
On the work front, Shah Rukh Khan will next be seen in 'King' which will also star his daughter Suhana Khan. On the other hand, Salman Khan will be seen in 'Sikandar' opposite Rashmika Mandanna.
