Dainik Bhaskar has brought a new series- ‘Light, Camera, Controversy.’ The story of Shahrukh and Salman Khan in the first episode. There was once a strong friendship between the two like ‘Karan-Arjun’, but the wheel of time turned and the matter reached ‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun’. From pushing and shoving to hugging each other and crying, their story has everything – love, romance, suspense and high-voltage thriller. So let’s start… the year 1995… the shooting of the film ‘Karan-Arjun’ was going on. A small party was thrown for the unit during the break. Light tunes of music. There was laughter and laughter. Just then Salman approached Shahrukh smilingly and placed his hand on his shoulder. ‘Come on Shahrukh, let’s dance a little.’ Salman said laughing. Shahrukh nodded, ‘No brother, not in the mood at all.’ Salman’s facial expressions changed. Anger flashed in his eyes. He put his hand in his pocket and took out a gun. The entire unit stopped breathing. Before anyone could understand anything, Salman aimed directly at Shahrukh and pressed the trigger. Dhayam…. Shahrukh placed his hand on his chest and fell on the ground. The face of the film’s director Rakesh Roshan fell flat. The music stopped. Everyone was shocked – one hero shot another hero. Then Salman started laughing. ‘Hey don’t be afraid brother, it was a prank, the gun is fake.’ But Shahrukh remained unconscious on the ground. There was no movement in his body. Salman’s laughter slowly started disappearing. He called out in panic, ‘Shahrukh? Get up brother, the prank is done!’ But Shahrukh did not budge. Now Salman’s heart started beating fast. Sweat appeared on the forehead. He looked at the gun again and again and started wondering, ‘Has someone handed him the real gun?’ Salman ran to Shahrukh lying on the ground. Saw that Shahrukh was snoring. He was in deep sleep. Actually, Shahrukh had fallen while pretending to be shot, but due to the fatigue of shooting, he fell asleep as soon as he fell on the ground. ‘Karan Arjun’ was a hit. After this, both of them worked in ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ in 1998. Salman’s role in the film was small, but their friendship grew stronger. A glimpse of it was seen on the stage of ‘Lux Zee Cine Awards’ in the same year. Shahrukh and Salman were sitting together in the audience gallery. Then Kajol’s voice echoed from the stage, ‘Best Actor Award goes to Mr. Shahrukh Khan.’ Shahrukh reached the stage and after receiving the trophy said, ‘I have a close friend who often says that Shahrukh, it is you who always gets the awards, I do not. I want that same friend of mine to come on stage and thank you all on my behalf… Salman Khan, Sallu. Salman reached the stage. Saying ‘Salaam Valekum Bhai’, Shahrukh hugged him and said, ‘Say something, a few words…’ The mic was now in Salman’s hand. He smiled and said, ‘Oh my God, I can’t believe it… I want to thank Shahrukh’s cook, Shahrukh’s goshtwala and Shahrukh’s driver. Thank you very much Shahrukh for this award, and I love you. Shahrukh immediately handed over the award to Salman and said, ‘This award goes to Salman Khan.’ Time kept passing. Their friendship kept making headlines in the corridors of Bollywood. This friendship was so deep that in an award show, Shahrukh even called Salman ‘Ullu ka Pattha’ from the stage itself. But soon this friendship got noticed…the reason became a heroine. In 1999, a film came – ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’. Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai were in the lead roles. Both came close on the set and the matter reached the point of affair. Meanwhile, the film ‘Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam’ came, in which Aishwarya did a small cameo with Shahrukh and Salman. She was in the role of Salman’s girlfriend in the film. After this, Shahrukh did films like ‘Mohabbatein’ and ‘Josh’ with Aishwarya. In this way, Aishwarya also joined Shahrukh-Salman as a link… then the film Devdas entered. Aishwarya was playing the character of ‘Paro’ in Shahrukh’s film ‘Devdas’. During the shooting, Salman would often reach the set and leave taking Aishwarya with him. Both would remain missing for hours, due to which the shooting would come to a halt for six hours each. Many times the entire set would be ready, lighting would be done and all the actors would be standing at their places, but Aishwarya would be found missing. Shahrukh was very upset, but at that time he did not say anything to his friend Salman. Shahrukh has a dialogue – ‘Time also changes, humans also change.’ Film- Devdas and the same thing happened… This was the period when Shahrukh started his production house ‘Dreams Unlimited’ with Juhi Chawla. The first two films, ‘Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani’ and ‘Ashoka’, proved to be flops. Shahrukh was worried about the continuous losses. To compensate for the losses, he started work on a new film ‘Chalte Chalte’. Once again Aishwarya was his heroine. In the year 2002, the shooting of the film ‘Chalte-Chalte’ was going on in the hills of Malshej in Maharashtra. Then suddenly a car stopped in front of the set, raising dust. The door opened. Salman Khan came out. They were drunk. As soon as he stepped on the set, he started creating ruckus. Got into a fight with Aishwarya. The argument escalated so much that Salman slapped Aishwarya. Now Shahrukh’s patience ran out. He went ahead, ‘Salman, what a way this is, don’t create drama here.’ ‘Don’t interrupt, Shahrukh.’ Salman shouted and pushed Shahrukh back. Seeing this, both their bodyguards took out their guns. The breath of everyone present there stopped. Seeing the situation worsening, choreographer Farah Khan came forward to intervene, ‘Salman, calm down.’ But Salman pushed him also. Seeing all this, director Aziz Mirza ran away from there. A few days later… Shahrukh was sitting in his office typing a letter asking Aishwarya out of the film. Just then Salman came there. ‘Where is Shahrukh?’ His voice echoed in the office. He went straight inside the cabin, held Shahrukh’s hand and took him to the terrace of the fourth floor. Salman said in a very harsh tone, ‘Don’t remove Aishwarya from the film, Shahrukh. If you take it out, the entire bill will be on my shoulders.’ Salman left from there. Shahrukh returned to his cabin. He took the chair, took off his glasses and looked at the assistant director Vivek Sharma sitting nearby and said, ‘He is a very shallow man…’ After this, Shahrukh threw Aishwarya Rai out of the film. Rani Mukherjee was cast in place of Aishwarya in the film ‘Chalte Chalte’. Aishwarya was very angry with this. When the film Chalte Chalte was released in theaters in 2003, it proved to be a hit. Due to Salman’s attitude, Aishwarya also started avoiding him. Salman also started a fight with his friend and on the other hand, Aishwarya was also moving away. He wanted to fix everything. With this thought in mind, one day he reached Mannat. Shahrukh was in the house, but Salman’s first encounter was with Gauri Khan. Gauri did not want any new trouble. He made Salman leave from there in anger. Salman did not accept defeat. As soon as he got the chance, he met Shahrukh and clearly said – I love Aishwarya, want to marry her. Shahrukh was upset, but he melted after seeing his best friend like this. He promised to go to Aishwarya’s house with Salman and ask for a relationship. Soon the date came when Shahrukh, Salman reached Aishwarya’s doorstep. As soon as he was about to enter the door, he encountered Aishwarya’s younger brother Aditya Rai. Aishwarya’s family was also aware of the loss of Aishwarya’s career and image due to Salman’s deteriorating attitude. As soon as Aditya saw Salman, he became angry and raised his hand. Salman was not ready to stop, he removed Aditya’s hand and due to this he stumbled and fell down. Now Aishwarya’s father had also reached. First the defamation of the daughter and now seeing the son on the floor, his temper rose. Here Salman also resorted to misbehavior. Shahrukh stood silently nearby. Shahrukh was with Salman even after the fight, but then something happened that Shahrukh chose self-respect over friendship. The conversation between the two stopped again.
