Salman has several records of ruling the box office with his movies and especially those released on Eid. However, recently few of his movies are not doing well. After Jai Ho, Race 3 and Dabangg 3, Radhe is being counted among the flop movies of the 'once upon a time' box office ruler.
Movie watchers have lashed out at Salman for wasting their money and time and blamed him for being overconfident with his projects. Taking some online reviews into account, it seems the film lacks a story and the entire script is inconvincible.

However, things didn’t go well and Salman denied the offer after which the Om Shanti Om actor bagged the role and the rest is history, as they say. As per a report published in The Indian Express, Salman had said, “I left it because even Shah Rukh Khan should be part of a few great films.”
He later added that “When I was offered Chak De, my image was totally different as I was doing Partner and all those kind of films. My only thing in Chak De was that my fans would expect me to wear a wig and win the match for India which would not go for the film. That was not my genre at that point of time. It was a more serious kind of film.”
Well, SRK didn’t leave any comments over such a statement.

The duo claimed there was no issue between them and they share a good bond till date.
