Abhijeet Bhattacharya says he is upset with Shah Rukh Khan 

Abhijeet Bhattacharya opened up about his rift with actor Shah Rukh Khan and said, "This is something Shah Rukh Khan knows very well. There's no difference between us; our birthdays are just one day apart. We have the same nature."

He further added, "we both know what we're going to be. If I go to him today, I can tell him, as his senior by 6-7 years, Enough of the drama, you are a star and always will be. But if I come back into the picture, then it will be me, not him. Sometimes it feels like he is the type of person who shows off... or maybe he just doesn't have any time. But he isn't like that. I know myself very well, and I know him very well too, even though we don't have a close bond. He knows that I have been hurt".

Shah Rukh Khan on the work front

On the work front, Shah Rukh Khan was last seen in Rajkumar Hirani's Dunki alongside Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, and Boman Irani among others. The movie opened to rave reviews from fans and critics alike. 

Up next, the actor is all set to share the screen space with his daughter Suhana Khan in a movie titled King. Pinkvilla revealed that Khan will portray the role of a 'Don' in King, a character that will feature certain morally ambiguous traits.

The sources indicated that SRK is attuned to his audience's desire to see him in nuanced roles, particularly ones with shades of grey.
