Juicy Mausi has a great piece of gossip from the 25th wedding anniversary bash of Ramesh Taurani (TIPS Films head honcho) at a suburban five-star hotel last night in Mumbai. It was a grand A-list affair with the who’s of who of Bollywood and the music industry coming in to greet the Taurani couple. However, what left me amused was how Salman Khan avoided coming face-to-face with Shah Rukh Khan.What’s more, as soon as Salman arrived, Vivek Oberoi slipped out immediately.Shah Rukh arrived driving his car, puffing his cigarette.
Sohail Khan was already present when he went in. King Khan didn’t hang around much and left after greeting the Taurani couple.Just minutes after SRK left, Salman Khan arrived from the back door entrance of the hotel. Now I don’t know if Sohail called up his elder brother to tell him the ‘coast is clear’, or whether he kept Salman waiting to arrive to avoid a face off with SRK.But funnily as soon as Salman made a back door entry, Vivek Oberoi who was present at the party immediately rushed to the front door to make an exit. He was in such a hurry that he told his driver to shift to the next seat and he himself took to the wheel.
Salman, too, left in exactly five minutes from the front gate. Luckily, Vivek’s car was out of the hotel premises by then. Incidentally, SRK and Salman stay just few metres away from Taj Lands End. Well, here’s hoping that both do better than Khan’s last effort Billu!
