After their much publicised fallout, the reconciliation between Salman and Shahrukh Khan took a few years. At an event held last year, Salim Khan (Salman’s father) had said that they were both mature enough to befriend one another and that if they wished, they would resolve their misunderstandings. It appears he was right. SRK and Salman’s relations seem to be peaceful now, and they are frequently seen sharing screen space these days.
Since he has made up with Salman, we asked SRK if he would resolve his issues with others too, to which he retorts, “Yaar, mein sabse ladta nahin hoon! I cannot hold a grudge against anyone. Life has given me so much that I always love everyone. It’s just that I am an emotional person. The names you’re talking about — Pritish Nandy and Arjun Rampal… mera kissi se jhagada nahin hua hai. I have no idea what you are talking about unless something of that sort is written in the media.”
He adds, “Just recently, while Salman and I were shooting for Tubelight, we were feeling ashamed of whatever was published about us over the years. When not-so-good things happen with us stars, it is blown out of proportion. We are also like common people. Even today I may disagree with Salman or anyone else. At times, we may like or dislike someone’s actions. It’s just the point of view that varies.”
Shahrukh says stardom comes at a price. “Having achieved stardom, there are a few things which I do not like but I can’t fight against that. For instance, if I am with my family and children and do not want photographers to click their photos, I still have to patiently find my way out. I can’t just enjoy stardom, I also have to take care of other things. But being a public figure, I can’t complain. Over the years, I have learnt to be patient and manage my public life as well,” he says.
