Directors Farah Khan and Shirish Kunder patched things up with actor Shah Rukh Khan on Tuesday following a scuffle between Kunder and Khan during a party at a posh Juhu nightclub in the wee hours of Monday.
Farah and Kunder met up with Khan and his wife Gauri at the latter's house Mannat in Mumbai and settled their differences. Sajid Khan, Farah's brother was instrumental in bringing both parties together.
"They hugged each other and made up, it's a relationship of 20 years," Sajid Khan told CNN-IBN over the phone. "Farah and SRK have patched up, I took the initiative, Gauri is my 'rakhi sister'," he said.
The reunion was emotional.
"We hugged, cried, laughed and made up," Farah said. "SRK, Gauri, Shirish and I were all unhappy about it; things had gone out of hand; now everything is sorted out ; SRK and Gauri had done my kanyadaan (gave her away at the time of her marriage)."
Kunder tweeted: "Shahrukh and I just met, had a heart to heart chat and have resolved all misunderstandings. All animosity is now sorted for good."
Both Shirish Kunder and Khan were nonchalant following the altercation. Khan made an indirect reference to it in a tweet and Kunder kept his sense of humour on Twitter despite nursing a swollen face. In a cryptic message on his Twitter page, Khan described the whole incident as a Shakespearean farce.
According to eyewitnesses, an inebriated Kunder followed Khan around the lounge and bar and even entered the bathroom with him. Kunder, who was once a good friend of Khan following the actor's close friendship with Farah, had recently fallen out with the superstar. Their enmity stems partly from the fact that Khan refused to appear in Kunder's film Joker and partly from Kunder's sarcastic asides at Khan on Twitter over his mega-budget film RA.One.
