Camps in Bollywood are common place. Salman’s friends are not close to Shah Rukh Khan and vice versa. Any attempt by any member of such a camp to appease the rival celebrity is seen as a turncoat. TOI has learnt of one such improvement that is raising eyebrows in tinseltown. Kunal Kohli is known to be an Aamir supporter and not mostly close to SRK. In fact, we know that the filmmaker hasn’t even met SRKin a couple of years. But rapidly, his upcoming film Break Ke Baad, is looking like an unofficial tribute to SRK.
Imran is not only mouthing dialogues and matching dance steps that we have seen SRK do and glide into the hearts of billions but Deepika is also trying to be like SRK in the film. She even has a dialogue in which she declares that she is like SRK. Curious, we called on Kunal to find out if he has switched sides. He says, “I know people are saying this because I’m Aamir’s friend. The film is about two people who grew up in the times of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Dil Toh Pagal Hai and some of the memorable romances that SRK has given to the audiences.
The characters are inspired by his movies. The film is a tribute to SRK no doubt, but I hope that people are not reading too much between the lines. I am not trying to do a movie with SRK as of now. If the industry is gossiping that I’m trying to win SRK to my side with this movie, I haven’t met him in a long time now.”
