A-bout time!

For those still interested, there’s more news coming in from the most glamorous fight of the week. An eyewitness who was within earshot, told us the real story of how the Salman Khan-Shah Rukh Khan fight sparked off. The three Khans, Salman, Shah Rukh and Aamir, were sitting together and chatting amiably enough, when SRK came up with the idea that the Khan should now act in a film together.

Sallu didn’t agree, he said getting a suitable script and a director would pose problems, for making a film with the three Khans isn’t easy. Instead, Sallu suggested that the three Khans should do a stage show together and send the money in to the Prime Minister’s fund.

SRK then joked that Sallu was becoming very conscientious these days, first he got someone operated, now funds for the PM’s fund! Sallu took the joke gamely enough, and said, “Now that we’re all above 40, let’s stop talking about films, etc, and do something that will stun the whole nation. Kuch mardonwali baat karen (let’s do something really macho).”

SRK didn’t take to the comment kindly, in fact he took to it rather unkindly. And that’s where the off-colour joke about Aishwarya Rai popped up. Which angered Sallu, who went all out to abuse. From here the fight went from bad to worse, until the two had to be dragged off to different corners. And SRK left with Gauri and Karan Johar.
