SRK once broke the silence on the rumors, and below are all the details you need to know.
Both Shah Rukh and Big B are quite sorted in their respective lives. They’re always respectful towards their colleagues and co-actors, regardless of age and gender. But their paths have crossed on multiple occasions. SRK took over the Don legacy and portrayed the leading role in Farhan Akhtar’s Don (2006) and Don 2 (2011). On the other hand, he also replaced Amitabh Ji for one season in Kaun Banega Crorepati (2007).

In a 2007 interview with Rediff, Shah Rukh Khan addressed his alleged rivalry with Amitabh Bachchan. Asked if the silent war was ‘completely media generated, SRK said, “I think so, absolutely. They have been trying it for a long time, and finally they have had some sort of success. So my congratulations. But as far as I am concerned, and I am sure Mr Bachchan is concerned, we have no issues at all.”
Just not that Shah Rukh Khan also confessed that he was embarrassed by the negative reports about him and Amitabh Bachchan. “I think I have said this before, we are quite educated, cultured, graceful, doing well in our lives and professions kind of people. We worked together in a huge amount of successful films, and some really nice, enjoyable work together, as recently as KANK (Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, 2006). You know, it’s very strange, it does get a little embarrassing more than anything else… You know, entertainment has become part of news, and news has become part of entertainment now,” said the Dunki actor.
