As per a report in Mumbai Mirror it was the same venue, the same host and the same photo opportunity. Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan had famously buried the hatchet at Baba Siddiqui's Iftaar party at a Bandra hotel last year and the twain met again last night. SRK was the first to arrive at the gathering and the Khan family, including Salman, brothers Arbaaz, Sohail and their father Salim Khan walked in half an hour later. Salman and Shah Rukh posed together with their host and then retired to two corners for the rest of the evening. While Salman sat with his brothers, his former rival took a seat with Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan and Salim Khan.
But let's take a detailed look at the entire episode once again. Baba Siddiqui played a warm host, shuffling from his main door to the grand hall, accompanying all his guests one by one to the main hall where the Iftaar dinner was served. As soon as Salman Khan entered, sporting a casual look in a blue shirt and jeans, the entire hall echoed 'bhai' and 'bhai saalam walekum'. Salman looked his usual self, confident and not bothered by the media. However, this time he posed happily for the shutterbugs.
A few minutes later, the King Khan of Bollywood entered. Making a style statement with his ponytail, Shah Rukh met everyone warmly and entered the hall. As Salman shook hands with Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan and Salim Khan, Shah Rukh made way for himself amidst the crowd towards the main table. Salman, who was standing right in front of Shah Rukh, moved to the other side and went on to meet other guests completely ignoring SRK behind him. Shah Rukh came forward and took his seat next to Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan.
As soon as SRK took his seat, Baba Siddiqui was seen asking him to come and stand next to him. Everything was exactly the same this year, the same venue and same set of guests but what took us by surprise was how unlike last year, Salman and Shah Rukh completely ignored each other. Shah Rukh and Salman posed for the sutterbugs with Baba Siddiqui standing between them but not even for once did they look at each other.
Though both the stars were very well aware of each other's presence, it was very obvious how they were constantly trying to avoid one another. Media persons again asked Shah Rukh and Salman to hug and after their continuous request, Shah Rukh and Salman finally hugged. In what looked like a nano seconds hug, Shah Rukh and Salman again continued ignoring one another throughout the evening after.
Salman also spoke to media persons about his upcoming movie Kick for sometime. Going by the entire episode, it looks like, neither of the stars were interested in hogging the limelight with their hug this time. But it was just the continous pressure from everyone around them that forced them for the 'hug'.
