Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan's fight: Co-star recalls lesser-known side

In the world of Bollywood, where stardom often builds walls around celebrities, actor Vishal Malhotra experienced the opposite: genuine warmth and humility in his interactions with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. From an unforgettable first meeting with the ever-charming SRK to witnessing the dynamic between the two superstars during their rumored fallout years ago, 

Vishal offered fans a rare, heartfelt glimpse into the personalities of Bollywood’s biggest icons.

Vishal recalled his first meeting with Shah Rukh Khan during the post-production of the 2008 film Kismat Konnection, where SRK had recorded a special narration. The moment he says, left a mark on him forever.

“There’s a studio run by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy where we were dubbing,” Vishal said. “Shah Rukh sir came in to do his part. Within just 30 seconds, he made me feel like I had known him for years. He made me feel special — like I was the superstar, not him.”

Witnessing the Salman–SRK Equation

Vishal also shared a memorable instance when he saw both Shah Rukh and Salman Khan together at Riteish Deshmukh’s birthday party, a time when the two actors were rumored to be not on speaking terms. “Watching them together, even during that phase, was fascinating,” Vishal revealed, hinting at the mutual respect that still existed despite their differences.

Salman Khan’s Everlasting Stardom

Speaking of Salman, Vishal praised the actor’s unparalleled popularity and connection with fans. Salman Khan, fondly known as Bhaijaan, continues to dominate hearts and headlines. As the actor celebrates 37 years in Bollywood, fans flooded social media, especially X, to celebrate his incredible journey marked by back-to-back hits and a legacy that makes Eid synonymous with a Salman Khan release.
