First they fight, then they patch-up. We are talking about the biggest superstars of the Hindi film industry-Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh
Khan.
In an interview to Mumbai Mirror on March 12, Aamir had openly spoken against Shah Rukh's self-professed No 1 star status, and how he has lost his sense of humour since his films aren't doing well. All that is now in the past. On Sunday night, Aamir and Shah Rukh met at Karan Johar's Khar residence to settle their differences and work together to fight the current problems the industry is in due to the multiplex issue.
Aamir's spokesperson confirmed the meeting but was unable to give details. Karan Johar confirmed and said, "Yes, we met but it was an official meeting regarding the situation the industry is in. I would not like to discuss anything further till I can."
However, a source said, "Aamir and Shah Rukh have been at war from some time now. The war became public once Aamir became the most powerful man in the film industry according to a (Filmfare) poll. That's when Aamir took the opportunity to give Shah Rukh a taste of his own medicine. Aamir openly made his displeasure clear about all the digs SRK has made against him publicly over the past few months."
Commenting on what made them bury the hatchet on Sunday night, the source said, "Now that the industry is in trouble with no film releasing in multiplexes, producers wanted both SRK and Aamir to work together to sort out the strike issue. While both the actors sent a letter of consent to show their support, they did not attend the meeting. However, as an afterthought, Aamir decided to take matters in his hands. They finally met at Karan Johar's house. Karan, who has been a silent spectator ever since the star fight started, is extremely close to SRK as well as Aamir. He was the only one present at the meeting where both the superstars came to a conclusion to put their differences aside and work together for the sake of the industry. Karan was also of the opinion that both the stars should make an appeal together. Both the stars will now be seen working together for a common cause."
According to the source, both the actors thought that there is no point in having personal differences as they have to first think about the industry.
The source said, "The fact that a calm and dignified person like Karan was present during the meeting only helped things. SRK and Aamir jointly decided that together they can do a lot for the industry. After the six-hour long meeting concluded, SRK and Aamir decided to have a press conference where they will be on the same platform to resolve the multiplex issue. The press conference will be held today at 4.00 pm at a suburban hotel wherein a settlement will be worked out between multiplexes, producers and distributors. That the biggest superstars of the film industry will put up a united front will only help matters. SRK and Aamir standing together will send across a very strong message to the entire industry."
