The stars have finally aligned: Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Salman Khan recently came together to record a special episode of Aap Ki Adalat to celebrate 21 years since the show made its debut.
The three Bollywood supremos – who are yet to star in a film together – got along famously, joked around with the host Rajat Sharma – SRK and Salman even going as far as to kiss him soundly on both cheeks – and even synched steps to Sallu’s towel dance.
There was absolutely no sign of their much-talked about rivalry (such an important topic of discussion in Indian media!).
The episode, which was filmed in New Delhi’s Pragati Maidan on a stage hung with a banner proclaiming “Khan Ki Adalat”, was obviously important enough to be attended by the Indian president Pranab Mukherjee and prime minister Narendra Modi. Other guests included Bollywood’s glitterati, among them Rani Mukerji, Anil Kapoor, Sonakshi Sinha, Ajay Devgn, Shilpa Shetty, Anupam Kher and Kirron Kher, and the cricketer Gautam Gambhir.
The episode will be broadcast on Star Plus on Sunday, December 7, at 10pm UAE time. Don’t miss it. Who knows how long it will be before the stars deign to align again?
