MUMBAI: Salman Khan, the macho man of bollywood who plays the main lead in upcoming flick ‘Wanted Dead and Alive’, has once again created a stir by referring his character in the film as Kutto Ka King Khan(Shah Rukh Khan is generally referred to as King Khan).

As only Shah Rukh Khan is addressed by that title of King Khan in the industry due to his supreme hold at the box office, the eyebrows are being raised at the intention of Salman Khan in choosing this name for making the King of dogs. Sources say that the dog topic is especially sensitive for Shah Rukh Khan camp due to its earlier association with Aamir Khan episode of calling his dog ‘Shahrukh’. Aamir had written on his blog that Shahrukh was licking his feet, but later clarified that it was the name of his dog.

And now, Salman Khan openly says at the music launch of his film ‘Wanted Dead and Alive’ that he had become King Khan of dogs. The industry watchers say that it is certain to worsen the already strained relationship between the two superstars.

Sources say that Salman Khan even elaborated on this ‘Kutton ka King Khan’ thing by saying that whenever he went for jogging in Greece during a schedule, several of dogs would follow him. This made him think of himself as ‘Kutton Ka King Khan’.

Industry insiders say that everybody knows that Salman Khan does not forget or forgive easily and this was his way of getting back at Shah Rukh Khan by making himself ‘Kutto Ka King Khan’.

This is not for the first time that Salman Khan has lashed out at King Khan. Recently, when Shah Rukh Khan had been detained by the US authorities at Newark airport in that country, Salman Khan did not express any sympathy for him.

Instead, Sallubhai praised the strict checking and detention of Shah Rukh Khan in the US by saying that it was such thorough frisking that had prevented the reoccurrence of events like that of 9/11 bombing in New York.

It seems Salman Khan has yet not forgotten or forgiven Shah Rukh Khan for the ugly fight that had taken place between them at Katrina Kaif’s birthday bash, last year. Sources say that Shah Rukh had said some nasty things about Salman’s ex-girlfriend Aishwarya Rai and Salman lost his cool.

Salman Khan plays the character of a hit man in Boney Kapoor’s upcoming flick ‘Wanted Dead and Alive’, which is being directed by southern dancing sensation Prabhu Deva. Ayesha Takia plays the female lead opposite Salman Khan in the flick.
