Friendship Day 2024 is trending all across social media platforms and this is also the best time to revisit some close Bollywood friendships that went kaput due to reasons best known to those very stars. The examples are aplenty so let’s dive into the names.
Revisiting Shah Rukh Khan-Arjun Rampal’s bond on Friendship Day 2024
Shah Rukh Khan and Arjun Rampal worked together for the first time when SRK did a cameo in Rampal’s home production I See You, and Rampal too had a brief role in Karan Johar’s Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. And in the same year the duo was seen in Farhan Akhtar’s Don (2006). They did many films together and were spotted way too often at events and IPL matches.
But it’s said during Ra. One, Arjun wasn’t too happy with his screen time which led to the rift in their friendship. Some people also say the Crakk actor asked Khan to distance himself from Priyanka Chopra which was the last nail in the coffin. These were just speculations and the two today are busy in their own lives.
Rani Mukerji-Aishwarya Rai- Bond Number Two on Friendship Day 2024
Once upon a time in Bollywood, Rani and Aishwarya were close buddies and exchanged multiple laughs at events and award ceremonies. So what happened here? It was reported Aishwarya was upset when she was replaced by Rani in Shah Rukh Khan’s 2003 romantic drama Chalte Chalte. There were rumors of Rani and Abhishek Bachchan’s relationship as well but when the Guru actor got hitched to Aishwarya, the friendship faded away. It’s been a while since the two were spotted together.
Sanjay Dutt and Sanjay Gupta
The duo made many films together under their production house White Feather Films. They have done films like Aatish, Khauff, Jung, Dus Kahaniyaan, Woodstock Villa, Kaante, and Zinda. Neither of the two ever spoke about what exactly went wrong but did speak about being upset with each other due to issues best known to them. Let’s see if a reunion happens or not.
Kareena Kapoor-Esha Deol: Looking at their close relationship on Friendship Day 2024
Kareena and Esha have been childhood buddies. In fact, in a throwback interview, when asked about her social circle in Bollywood, the Refugee actress had this to say- “do go out but my social circle is restricted to four or five close friends like Karan Johar and Manish Malhotra. I’m very fond of Abhishek Bachchan and Akshay Kumar. I’m comfortable with them. And of course, Esha Deol. She’s one of my closest friends.”
She added, “I’m already six films old…or young, I treat her like a younger sister. I teach her the do’s and don’ts. She’s as excitable and temperamental as I am. We like and dislike the same things. We’re quite sure our friendship is envied by everyone.”
Why Kareena skipped Esha’s wedding ?
The actress said in a statement, “I’m on an outdoor in Thailand shooting for Heroine and will only be back on July 5 so I am unable to attend Esha’s wedding events. Yes but I’m traveling now. I do wish Esha a happy married life always. Esha invited me and my family for the wedding. She told my friend Reenaa and her secretary sent the invite but Saif and I were away.”
She added, “I haven’t been home in a month as I have been traveling all over London, Turkey and now Thailand.”
The hushed whispers in the industry suggest Esha’s close proximity with Zayed Khan was the reason why her friendship with Kareena ended as the Good Newwz actress asked her to not get romantically involved with him at the behest of Hema Malini. Again, nobody knows what happened.
