Joker will now no longer have SRK in the superhero avatar

Enough trouble is brewing on the home front to keep Farah Khan busy before the release of her film, Om Shanti Om.

First, her husband Shirish Kunder parted ways with her best friend Shah Rukh Khan because of irrevocable creative differences, and the ambitious film, Joker will now no longer have SRK in the superhero avatar.

Later, her brother Sajid Khan’s film, Heyy Babyy didn’t showcase trailers of Om Shanti Om at the special screenings organised for the high-profile industrywallahs across the city.

Farah is yet to break her silence over tabloid reports of Shirish and Shah Rukh’s showdown at Mannat, but she is making efforts to get her husband and SRK back on talking terms. With SRK opting out of the film, his production company Red Chillies Productions will no longer produce the big-budget film.

Clearly, Shirish may not be at an advantageous position; but he claims that he has a bunch of financiers ready to back his project.

A source close to Farah reveals, She is in a tight spot, as the two people closest to her are at loggerheads. Neither Shah Rukh nor Shirish are talking about it. Despite all differences, Shirish is still editing the film and there are no fights in the edit room yet.

In circles where it really matters, the buzz is that she is extremely upset with brother Sajid Khan now, over the trailers getting snipped off. Given the extreme closeness of the siblings, this leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

A source close to Farah informs, She feels that Sajid could have avoided that ugly episode. Shah Rukh wanted the trailers to be aired so that he could get instant feedback from actors, film-makers and producers. It wasn’t an unreasonable demand.

Besides, it was because of her that SRK agreed to do a cameo in Heyy Babyy.
Sajid feigning ignorance about the ugly episode to certain sections of the media only worsened the situation. Farah has been quiet as it’s her brother’s film. But she felt betrayed when Sajid told some media persons that everything is hunky dory and that Om Shanti Om trailers were aired at all trial shows, says another source.
