Since the release of Om Shanti Om, legendary actor Manoj Kumar was not on talking terms with SRK for making him a laughing stock in his flick. He even dragged SRK and Farah Khan to the court. But all is well now with the two actors making up.
SRK recently gave a visit to Manoj and spent a lengthy four hours with his family. He joked with his grandkids and enquired about the health of Manoj’s mom-in-law.
Manoj Kumar says, “Look, there wasn’t ever an epic war between us that we wouldn’t meet again. He made a mistake and apologized for it. My 94-year-old mother-in-law had to be recently operated upon, and Shah Rukh wanted to meet her. My mother-in-law used to make khakras for Gandhiji. She is a former MP from Congress and Shah Rukh’s mother was a social worker, that’s how they met.”
Manoj further adds, “Shah Rukh asked me why I was not making films anymore. I asked him what his problem was if I don’t make any and just rest at home. We joked about it. It was nice to meet him, I hardly interact with present day stars. I’ve just spoken to Aamir Khan over phone. And imagine, I haven’t met Salman since the last 19 years, despite his father, Salim Khan, being one of my closest friends.”
However SRK was unavailable for a comment on this visit.
