Now it seems the equation between Sid and Asim is more on equal footing. Maybe Sid also got bashing from Salman, which was edited out and hence I found that both Sid and Asim were now talking as equals. If not, then hats off to Asim that he managed to get Sid talking to him on his term, in spite of WKW.
Asim is holding his ground. Also he and Sid have reached an unspoken understanding about having their individual games and individual equations with respective HMs. Here Asim was wrong in the beginning by being friends with Sid friends and being enemies with Sid's. But now that seems to be changing.
