Looks like the Baadshah is hell-bent on refreshing his friend-list so that it has no ‘old friends’ in it. But why, we wonder…

Shahrukh Khan is in the news yet again for the famous cold vibes he loves to send out to the people who have once been close to him. And the latest bakra of SRK’s cold-shoulder syndrome is Hrithik Roshan. Well, we’ve talked about that, haven’t we? And we’ve also talked endlessly about how Shahrukh has distanced himself from Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Arjun Rampal, Salman Khan, Karan Johar, Farah Khan and Priyanka Chopra.

The reason why the cold-shoulder syndrome takes over the Baadshah are many. Right from the fight over screenings, to brawl with a dost’s husband, to the alleged kissa of the other woman. For all those who have lost track, Shahrukh Khan’s first big brawl happened during a night where his dear friend Farah Khan’s husband Shirish Kunder managed to irk him and earned a resounding slap in return. After that, we heard Shahrukh’s ‘bessht’ friend Karan Johar cutting ties with him due to Baadshah’s alleged proximity to Priyanka that had miffed Gauri Khan. Then we had Shahrukh and Akshay Kumar locking horns over the copyright issues of Dhanush’s Kolaveri Di. We were also privy to Shahrukh’s dear friend Arjun Rampal getting pally with SRK’s arch rival Salman and facing Shahrukh’s cold-shoulder. And the list goes on with Hrithik joining the stay-away-from-Shahrukh club. But in the end, while SRK’s fans or no-fans just devour the details of those tussles and move on with their lives, Shahrukh is left with one friend less on his list.

So where is all this leading to? Is Shahrukh Khan steadily moving towards a lonely future? And if so, doesn’t it worry King Khan? From outside, it surely looks like Shahrukh has enough in his life to take the focus away from these breaking friendships. Even so, can Shahrukh function in an industry that’s now filled with his frenemies? Or perhaps, SRK is confident that his ever-smiling and socially active wife Gauri Khan will take care to mend the fences with the people he has distanced himself from.

But here, we would like to know from all you SRK lovers: Do you think Shahrukh Khan is too caught up with himself to value age-old friendships?

    WE,THE FAN OF SHAHRUKH KHAN, NEVER ABUSE OTHER ACTORS & THEIR FANS. THEN, WHY THE FAN OF OTHER ACTORS USES WRONG WORDS ABOUT SHAHRUKH KHAN?. ITS TOTALLY DUE TO WHAT THEY HAVE FOLLOWED & LEARNT FROM WATCHING THESE NONSENSE MOVIES OF THOSE OTHER ACTORS. BE FANS OF SHAHRUKH KHAN & STOP CRITICIZING ANY ACTORS.KING KHAN YOU KEEP YOUR WORKS. WE ARE WITH YOU ALWAYS. “JAB TAK HAI JAAN”

    SRK is cerebal. Are these so called friends really his or Gauri’s? He still maintains a business relationship with some of them like the visual effect for Krissh 3, Adjay doing some scenes in Chennai Express. BFF should accept you for what you want and not be judgemental nobody is perfect

    Srk girlish type actor usne pure jindgi koi worthful movie nahi banaya. Usne romantic,dark ke alawe sale ko mardo wala acting aata hi nahi.romance to sabhi movie me hota ha magar srk ke movie me love hi sb kuch hota hai.uske acting me dam kaha jo-singham,gangajal,wanted,dabang,dilwale,diljale jaise worthful movie banaye.

    He is a egocentric thinking man. Who takes himself more important than any others including his Family and friends. That´s a fact. And he will notice someday the sentence on the way down you´ll meet them all again.

    The only mistake of SRK is that he doesn’t like buttering others. It is due to the fact that he is self-made celebrity with having huge fan following worldwide. What he is today is due to his immense handwork and commitment to his work. Obviously he should be proud of himself.I know industry is totally changed, comedy and masala movies are liked more than the serious,romantic and others.But it does not mean that we should underestimate the king khan, he is the still same but the taste of people have changed.

    Srgay ka halat sap-chuchundar jaisa hai.hakla ko romantic ur dark movie ke alawe koi acting aata hi nahi sala khud ko king samjhata hai,jabki ajay,salman usse her area me better hai like-100cr.club,more hit movie,and all over acting ye to sari dunia janti hai ki ajay jaisa acting koi nahi kr sakta ur usse jyada present me kisi ka v hit movie nahi hai ur ajay big award winner actor hai like-dada saheb falke and 2 time national award.
