SRK reportedly extended the olive branch and patched up with the Bachchans at the premiere of 'Drona' recently.
The buzz is that nobody expected to see SRK there and that too with his entire family- wife Gauri and kids in tow! He warmed up to Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan and even Aishwarya Rai Bachchan!
Now everybody knows how things between SRK and Ash turned bitter six years ago when he replaced her with Rani Mukerji in his movie 'Chalte Chlate' after her then boyfriend Salman Khan( with whom she was breaking up) created a ruckus on the sets?
The buzz is that during those days SRK and wife Gauri were also pleading Salman's case with Ash and her parents after she lost all interest in him!
Shah Rukh and Ash didn't work together or publicly acknowledge each other thereafter!
And now here King Khan was at the premiere hugging Big B, laughing and talking with Abhishek and Aishwarya and posing for photographs. He also didn't forget to tell people that the war between him and the Bachchans is only media created.
Looks like SRK's is in the serious need of friends after his recent big fight with Salman Khan. The Bollywood bad boy started shunning him completely after that, almost creating a divide in the industry.
Moreover his 'King' status has been challenged big time with the rise of the box office king, with a new name King Kumar being coined for him (we mean Akshay Kumar).
The Bachchans who have their own insecurities (which now also includes their over ambitious 'Drona' biting the dust) must have been happy to oblige.
Wonder what happens to the new found Abhishek - Salman yaari ( or it also another illusion) now? Even if it goes for a toss, who cares? Friendships and enmities in B-town are fragile and inconsistent and it's been so for years, after all!
