The on-screen rivalry and off-screen friendship between Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan is a phenomenon that has captivated audiences for decades. Actor Arshad Warsi, who has collaborated with both stars in various films, sheds light on the striking differences in their temperaments. In an exclusive conversation, Arshad praised Shah Rukh Khan, calling him a 'gentleman' and 'one of the most polite and giving actors.' He shared that Shah Rukh knows his craft, has a 'theatre vibe,' and is always prepared with his lines. Arshad also commended Shah Rukh's family, particularly his children, Suhana and Aaryan, praising them as 'great kids.' When asked about the contrast between Shah Rukh and Salman's personalities, Arshad described Salman as a 'bad boy' with a 'quintessential good-looking, bad boy' image. However, he emphasized that Salman is a different person in private, often cracking jokes and being funny. Arshad attributed this difference to Salman's 'aura in public' versus his 'personal life.' Arshad is set to star alongside Shah Rukh Khan in the upcoming action drama 'King,' which is currently in production and expected to hit theaters in 2026. The film also features Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, and Suhana Khan in key roles. Meanwhile, Salman Khan is gearing up for the release of 'Battle of Galwan,' a film based on the 2020 Galwan Valley clash between Indian and Chinese troops. Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, the movie is scheduled to release in 2026 alongside Arshad's 'Welcome To The Jungle,' which stars Akshay Kumar and Sanjay Dutt in key roles.
