A spat between actors Shah Rukh
Khan and Salman Khan at actor
Katrina Kaif's birthday party a
few years ago clearly polarised
the industry into two Khan
factions. If Salman had actor
Aamir Khan on his side, then
actor Hrithik Roshan clearly
seemed to prefer to be with SRK.
But those close to the warring
Khans insist that the lines
between the two camps are now
becoming hazy.
Says an insider, "While Salman
has the support of actors who
have been his pals for years, SRK
has had the support of his
director friends. But of late,
Salman is becoming quite
popular amongst SRK camp
members.The reasons could be
anything. The fact that his
reputation as a loyal friend
precedes him, or it could be the
fact that he's reigning at the box-
office in a big way. But as things
stand now, Khan camps may
soon be a thing of the past."
Industry experts feel that
industry equations are ruled by
the BO figures. "It's becoming
very commercial, and everyone
wants to make money. The
competition has hotted up with
the inclusion of ' 100-crore-plus
club. And who would want to get
on the wrong side of its
members? Actors are therefore
playing safe by not being part of
any certain camp," adds a trade
pundit.
Another school of thought
stresses that the industry is not
just about the Khans. "Actors like
Hrithik, Akshay Kumar and Ranbir
Kapoor have their own standing.
They are in the race too, and
would want to strengthen their
positions in the industry as well,"
they say.
Seconding that the lines between
the Khan camps are blurring, a
source close to one of the Khans
says, "Times change, situations
change, people change. What's
wrong with that? Besides, there's
a popular saying in the world of
films —there's no room for
permanent friends or enemies."
So, if Salman's protegee Katrina is
acting opposite SRK in Yash
Chopra's next, then SRK's find
actor Deepika Padukone has
evinced interest in doing a film
with Salman. Does that mean the
day is not far when Shah Rukh
and Salman too bury their
differences and move on?

ofcourse...its safe to be neutral... you never know who will be required when!

there's a popular saying in the world of films —there's no room for permanent friends or enemies."

Yep. Those rooms are booked for the starlets. 😆
