Shah Rukh Khan forgot his rivalry with Salman Khan on the occasion of Eid, and wished the 'Dabangg' star a speedy recovery.

Salman is in the US for the treatment of a nerve problem that has been causing excruciating pain in his head, cheeks and jaw. Shah Rukh hopes his 'Karan Arjun' co-star feels better soon.

"When anyone is unwell, we all feel unhappy. We all feel bad. I always pray that they get well very fast. It's a tougher time for the family than the patient. So I wish Salman a speedy recovery and I wish him all the best. He should come back soon," Shah Rukh said.

SRK, who underwent knee surgery recently, compared Salman's situation with his own.

"I've been injured three times. I know how it feels. It's not nice when you lead an active life inactively. Never in my life would I want that anyone gets hurt or stay unwell," he added.

Salman and Shah Rukh were known to be very good friends until 2008 when both got into a tiff at Salman's then girlfriend Katrina Kaif's birthday party. Ever since then, things have soured between them.
