SRK on Salman: We have been very close for 20 years

At the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit 2012, Shahrukh Khan on Friday said, his differences with Salman Khan won’t be resolved on a public platform. “My thing is that we had a little bit of personal issue. This is not the first time. It was four years ago and it had been before. We have been very close for 20 years and even more. From the time I came, I respect his family and the fact that they gave me so much of love. I can never be disrespectful about that. Having said that, we have grown together. We have certain things similar and certain things which we completely disagree on. So, at this point of time we are at that plain of disagreement and there might come a time when these things will get resolved,  but it will never be on a public platform. It will be a personal thing,” Shahrukh Khan said here on Friday. Reacting to Katrina’s comment recently that she hopes to produce a film with Shahrukh and Salman, SRK said “It will never get resolved if two or three people came in between and say ‘resolve it’. I don’t think a film is going to bring us together and resolve anything. It will not be if a producer, director casts me in a film, even if it is Katrina Kaif.” “It can be that we board the same plane and start chatting, but not for a film. But I don’t think it will happen now. We don’t really sit and think of it” SRK added.
