Long long back, when Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan fought at Katrina Kaif's birthday party, it made national headlines. Salman and Shah Rukh Khan are good friends, but they were once bitter foes a few years ago.
Many know that at Katrina Kaif's birthday party, which was held in 2008, the two Khans had a heated argument where Gauri and Katrina had to get involved, allegedly, to stop the two from hurting each other.
During the fight, it was said that Shah Rukh Khan allegedly made an improper remark on Salman's ex girlfriend Aishwarya Rai. And Jaya Bachchan, who is Aishwarya's mother-in-law, was upset with his comment.
Jaya Bachchan had once spoken about her displeasure and anger over Shah Rukh Khan's comment on Aishwarya to People magazine. She said she would slap him then and there if King Khan made such remarks at her home.
Jaya Bachchan had told the People magazine, "Of course, I do. I haven't had the opportunity to discuss it with him, and I am going to speak to him about it. If he was at my home, I would have slapped him, just as I would my own son. But I have connected with him in my soul, and that's it."
Jaya was so upset with King Khan that she called his film Happy New Year a nonsensical film. To which Shah Rukh reportedly called Big B's popular film Amar Akbar Anthony a nonsensical film. Later, it was reported that, Abhishek Bachchan apologised to Khan on his mother's behalf.
Cut to present, Both the families are very close to each other; Jaya calls Khan her son, and both represent West Bengal on many occasions. Both are also very close to the Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee.
