Salman, SRK show up at Siddiqui's Iftar party, but separately

June 25, 2017 09:17

Bollywood superstars Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, known for their bitter-sweet rivalry and Iftar party hugs, attended Mumbai Congress leader Baba Siddiqui's Iftar party on Saturday, but made separate appearances.

While Salman attended the ceremony with presumed girlfriend Iulia Vantur, Shah Rukh made a solo appearance.

Child actor Matin Rey Tangu from Tubelight, Salman's recently-released movie, also attended the party, while director Kabir Khan came with his wife Mini Mathur.

Sohail Khan, Huma Qureshi, Sonu Sood, Sooraj Pancholi, and Ileana D'Cruz among others were also in attendance.

For the uninitiated, Baba Siddiqui's 2013 Iftar party was the event that brought together friends-turned-foes-turned-friends Shah Rukh and Salman even as they hugged and made up, ending years of bitter enmity that had split Bollywood down the middle.

The 2014 Iftar party seemed like a repeat of 2013's where the two warring Khans again hugged each other.

Meanwhile, Tubelight managed to gross Rs 21.15 crore on its opening day, becoming the second highest opener of 2017, but the lowest opening for a Salman Khan movie that released around Eid in the last five years.

Tubelight, set against the backdrop of the 1962 Sino-Indian war, has received a mixed response from film critics and audiences so far.

Shah Rukh Khan makes a special appearance in the movie.
