While the world touts them as rivals, Shah
Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Salman Khan
share a different equation with each other.
Their camaraderie is hard to understand
and SRK himself states this. In an interview
with a daily, when the actor was asked
about it, he elaborated on the same.
"I wish everyone well, and I am sure they
wish me well too. We (the Khans) have been
doing this [acting] for too long. Initially, for
the first 5-6 years, when there are new
actors, such things (competition etc.) might
happen, especially when people around you
talk on those lines but when you have been
there [in the industry] for so long, two
things become very clear firstly, if people
say that you are done with when a
newcomer is making his/her debut, it's not
true. I have seen enough of that, and
secondly, if someone says, you are
competing with your contemporaries,' then
that's not true either since the
contemporaries' have known each other for
very long," states Shah Rukh.
Quiz him if he considers them as rivals or
vice versa and SRK admits, "If anyone saw us
[contemporaries] the most of us sitting
together, they would be surprised. I am not
extremely friendly with some [actors] as we
don't know each other personally. But if
Aamir, Salman and I specifically sat down
and chatted, you would see a very different
relationship. So, for instance, Aamir can say,
yaar, tune abhi tak Dangal (2016) dekhi
nahi (you haven't watched Dangal till now).'
And I will tell him, I will watch it when I am
free.' So, he will say, You call me up; I will
come over.' In fact, I had called him the
other day but he was leaving for a foreign
country. We don't talk work at all. In fact, we
have never done it. So, our equations are on
a very different level. We never sit together,
gauge and judge that, accha, meri film nahi
chali (oh, my film didn't do well).' It's not like
Salman will ever sit with me and say, oh,
your film didn't do very well. What have you
done?'"
He concludes, "I think the three of us know
that we have something in us that makes us
think on similar lines. So, if I say something,
Aamir will understand and if Salman has to
say something, Aamir and I will understand,
and that's how it goes. There might not be
any fourth person in the world who has
been doing it for so long and will
understand the same things. Even we don't
understand or try to understand that
camaraderie. We know about each other's
feelings."
