Nobody can do it better than SRK, says Salman Khan

For the first time after their public falling-out last year, Salman Khan has praised Shah Rukh Khan. The accolades were for SRK's professionalism and his intense performances in romantic roles.

Salman had walked out of friend Katrina Kaif's birthday party on July 16, 2008, after a spat with Shah Rukh. The actors have not been on the best of terms since then.

But in the yet-to-be-aired episode of his reality show 10 Ka Dum, Salman heaped praise on the other Khan. The episode features Riteish Deshmukh and Govinda, who were promoting their film Do Knot Disturb.

Salman asked Riteish, who is known for his mimicking talent, to imitate someone, a source working on the sets of the show told DNA. After Riteish mimicked Shah Rukh, Salman complimented him and said: "When it comes to romantic scenes, Shah Rukh is outstanding. Nobody can do it better than Shah Rukh Khan. He has the intensity in his eyes and is utterly romantic."

Salman went on: "Professionally, Shah Rukh is simply great." DNA has a copy of the taped transcript of Salman's comments.

The source said that Salman knew that Riteish's favourite scene was from Shah Rukh's Dil Toh Paagal Hai, but he still asked him to imitate it.

Anita Basu, the producer of 10 Ka Dum, said: "Salman has been very gracious in his compliments about Shah Rukh. No snide remark was passed. Salman is a thorough professional who likes SRK's work and he acknowledged it when people asked his about SRK."

But an industry insider said just because Salman has complimented SRK's professionalism does not mean "they are best friends". "That cannot happen quickly as they have drifted apart. But never say never -- we have seen many professional rivalries wash away with time. As of now, let us wait and watch," he said.

SRK, Kajol back in Fashion

Bollywood’s golden couple that sets the screen on fire, a couple who brings smile on millions of people and raise their heart beats, and a couple who's always in fashion...king of khan’s Shah Rukh Khan and beauty queen Kajol.

The chemistry of the Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge couple is back and they personify the power of two. No other couple could have been more perfect for appearing on the second anniversary cover of Vogue magazine in India.

King Khan said it is a 'relief' that he was finally picked to be on the cover of Vogue. He told that, "I'm very excited I'm the Vogue cover. My wife was on the Vogue cover when it started off, and that's something everyone in the house teases me about that I have not made it to a cover that my wife did. So this is my claim to fame and optimistically now I'll be looked up in my house."

Despite the different camera, Kajol too had a good time, she said, "I expected it to be a lot tougher than it actually was, but everybody really convention together and made us look fashionable, so we didn't have to try too hard."

It definitely is a cast coup- in more ways than one, because however it is hard to believe this, neither of the two fit comfortably into their modeling shoes. They both insist that the differences between the still and moving camera are manifold and needless to say, in front of the movie camera, they are nothing short of perfect.

And a modest SRK said the reason he doesn't do too many cover shoots is simply because, "he's not good at it."

Both swear the differences between still and moving camera are manifold, so do they have a few fallback faces when faced with a lens they do not love?

Says SRK, "We are not the best people to be posing, we don't pout, we don't know how to smile, we don't know which side to look. We do silly things, we laugh, we joke, and we kept looking in the wrong direction."

And what makes them the hottest couple? Well they are hardly in the mood to deliberate on that. Kajol said, "We have done so many films together that have done well, and they happen to be love stories...I think it is great. I don't understand it myself so I can't explain it."

There are still many months left for the release of My Name is Khan, their comeback movie as a couple, and till then, this will have to do for the fans.
