Looks like Shah Rukh Khan is neither in a mood to forgive or forget nor does he want to create controversies.
Recently, Anil Kapoor with who Shah Rukh has not had the best of relations, claimed that the credit of creating the stardom of actor Shah Rukh Khan indirectly goes to him. Anil revealed on Preity Zinta's chat show that Shah Rukh was offered Baazigarafter he had rejected the film.
"If it had not been for me, today Shah Rukh wouldn't have been where he is," said Anil as Preity looked at him in amazement. Anil indicated that he couldn't spare the time for Baazigaras he had other projects to complete.
As we all know, Baazigar (1993) played a big role in establishing Shah Rukh as the next big star in Bollywood in the anti-hero mould. Shah Rukh followed up his Baazigaract with a few anti-hero roles like in Darrand Anjaamwhich garnered a lot of critical acclaim, before Aditya Chopra's Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayengechanged that and established him as the quintessential lover boy. Baazigarwas the first film to mark his pairing with actor Kajol.
And when Shah Rukh was asked to react on Anil's statement, he simply avoided taking any names and replied: "It is not just one person, but there are billions of people in the country who are responsible in making me successful. Then I have worked with the nicest of people in my career my directors, technicians, actorsthey are all responsible for me being where I am," said SRK.
Further, Shah Rukh again avoided taking the name of his arch rival Aamir Khan when asked to comment about Aamir's "nice" gesture. Aamir had lauded Shah Rukh's efforts in making Ra.One and had further called the Ra.One jokes to be in poor taste. "Yes, it was nice" Shah Rukh, who is usually ready with witty words, merely mumbled.
How can the badshahforget the verbal volleys that he and Aamir had had in the past? Remember Aamir wrote on his blog few years back about 'a certain Shah Rukh licking his feet and he (Aamir) feeding biscuits...' Probably, Shah Rukh must be doubting Aamir's intentions in being so nice to him this time.
