Bollywood Controversies which stunned every body:
1. Shah Rukh Khan vs. Aamir Khan
Going by the popular belief, two great stars should be friends. But that is not true with Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan. Amongst the biggest celebrities of Indian film industry, these two have been in a cold war for eternity. In recent past, Aamir wrote on his blog, “Shah Rukh is licking my feet and I am feeding him biscuits every now and then. What more can I ask for? Now, before you jump to any conclusions, let me add that Shah Rukh is the name of our dog.” In retaliation came King Khan’s reply, “Aamir has lost two of his fans as both my children loved him as an actor.”
There were attempts to seek peace, when a humble Aamir apologized at an event. However, Aamir’s statement “I haven’t apologised to Shah Rukh. But yes, I have apologised to his children,” did not appease much to an offended Shah Rukh. Apparently, the two biggies of Bollywood have been keeping it low and do not display any annoyance in public.

A slightly terrified Kareena was reported to hire two bodyguards besides tightened security. While the VHP’s joint general secretary Surendra Jain quoted, “The magazine is for internal circulation of VHP in Himachal Pradesh. How girls are lured by ‘Jihadis’ has been highlighted through the article.” Her further added, “It also highlights the issue of Bangladeshi infiltrators coming into Himachal Pradesh and causing law and order and communal violence issues.”
