Sajid Khan and Shekhar Suman end cold war
Says Sajid Khan, "Earlier, Shekhar Suman and I would be known as the Amitabh Bachchan and Vinod Khanna of the TV industry. We never went on any show together. He considered himself the No 1 host because of Movers and Shakers while I did the same because of my show on Zee.
There
was
an
unspoken
cold
war
between
us.
We
would
never
speak
at
events.
And
if
we
bumped
into
each
other,
we
would
look
through
each
other.
There
was
a
hidden
rivalry
and
deep
animosity
between
us."
Sajid says the ice was broken last week. "I went up to him and said it was amazing the way he kept himself fresh and fit even at 6.30 am. That broke the ice. Shekhar said he loved Heyy Babyy and we became friends. Shekhar and I have spent four days cracking jokes and discussing body building. I am amazed how he maintains himself so well being in his mid-40s."
Shekhar Suman adds, "People also created a lot of mischief between Sajid and me. We had pre-conceived notions of each other each thought the other was an arrogant, pretentious creep!"
According to Shekhar, the cold war intensified because they were never at the right place at the right time. "We never interacted with each other.
Sajid and I connected in a big way while doing the show together. When we broke the ice, it was like 'hey buddy, you're not like that at all as a matter of fact, you're worse!' Just kidding! It's so important to have a wicked sense of humour that both Sajid and I have. He has promised me that he will ensure that I get my due share in films and the right breaks as an actor. He wants me to do negative roles. This was destiny. A show became an occasion to get on with the larger things in life."
