In one of the most memorable throwbacks, Salman Khan once revealed the pain he felt over his past fallout with Shah Rukh Khan when he said that despite the public rift, he has always loved SRK like a younger brother. Their friendship, which has since become iconic, faced a significant setback at Katrina Kaif’s 2008 birthday celebration, reportedly causing a prolonged silence between the two superstars.
Years later, in a candid moment on Aap Ki Adalat, Salman expressed lingering hurt over the split, describing a brotherly bond that had been deeply impacted. “I have loved Shah Rukh as a little brother. Somehow, I am hurt.” He was sharing the heavy emotional load that their bond carried.
On Koffee With Karan in 2011, Shah Rukh Khan confessed how hard it has been for him to preserve close friendships.
He expressed remorse over any tension that he may have created in relationships with Salman and others while taking responsibility for his share of the misconceptions. “I sometimes disappoint people I care about,” Shah Rukh admitted, explaining that the reason he finds it hard to express regret was personal and not due to problems with others.
After years of tiff, the two superstars publicly reconciled at Baba Siddiqui’s 2013 Iftar party, giving fans a heartwarming moment that marked the return of Bollywood‘s beloved duo.
On the work front, Salman is now preparing for Sikandar with Rashmika Mandanna, while Shah Rukh remains focused on upcoming ventures including ‘King’ alongside his daughter Suhana Khan.
