Shahrukh Khan patches up with Sunny

Bollywood actors Shahrukh Khan and Sunny Deol took 16 years to patch up. What took them so long? Their fight during the making of Yash Chopra's Darr was so fierce that they stopped speaking to each other since then. The good news is that they have finally patched up.

The person responsible for the patch up was Subhash Ghai, who hosted a party on Saturday night. Shahrukh arrived early for the party and was with Karan Johar and friends in one of the private sections. He took Sunny to the private section, headed straight to Shahrukh and reintroduced them.

The actors shook hands and ended up chatting for a long time as if nothing had happened in the past. Sunny left the party early while Shahrukh's friends gather to celebrate his wedding anniversary when the clock struck midnight.

All is well that ends well!

Subhash Ghai on SRK

Reportedly, Ghai's Mukta Arts has had a 3-film deal with SRK, of which TRIMURTI and PARDES have already released. What about the third project? Ghai pauses for a while, before answering this, "It's a tricky question. I had approached Shah Rukh for MOTHERLAND. We also started working on the script, but the project didn't materialise for two reasons. One, the subject bore an uncanny resemblance to VEER-ZAARA and two, the role demanded heavy-duty action and stunts and SRK's back problem didn't allow him to perform those stunts. I am sure, if an opportunity arises, SRK would definitely accept the offer," Ghai says.

SRK postponed BILLOO BARBER due to Ghai!

There have been different reasons attributed to the postponement of Shah Rukh Khan's home banner productions, BILLOO BARBER (BB), starring Irrfan Khan in the title role and SRK in an extended special appearance. Some say that Shah Rukh postponed the film as he feared a clash with Salman Khan's YUVVRAAJ. Others were of the view that the flopping of KUSELAN (remake of KADHA PARAYAMBOL of which BILLOO BARBER too is a remake) led to its delay. Well, we can only laugh at the propagators of the above illogical reasons, as these can only be termed as canards and we bring you the real reason straight from none other than Subhash Ghai, the director of YUVVRAAJ.

Says Ghai in his latest interview to a leading bi–monthly, "My distributor called me to say that he wanted to release YUVVRAAJ on November 21. So, I messaged Shah Rukh and he immediately called me back. I told him – Since BILLOO BARBER was supposed to release around Diwali, I had planned to release YUVVRAAJ three weeks later. But now I hear you are releasing your film on the same date. Shah Rukh assured that there would be no clash saying – Subhashji, your film is my film and my film is yours. And very gracefully I think he has postponed the release of the film for me."

So, that is the exact situation and in a way it has given SRK and Priyadarshan additional time to add the condiments in forms of additional dance numbers featuring top Bollywood hotties, as we have already told you.
