When Aamir Khan is around, everybody plays second fiddle. Even Shah Rukh Khan. The latter found himself on the same Los Angeles to Mumbai flight that was bringing the Lagaan hero back from the world`s movie capital. Thousands of people had gathered at the Chhatrapati Shivaji International airport to welcome Aamir.

When the actor arrived through the exit gate, the crowd was in for a surprise. Accompanying him was Shah Rukh in an Armani suit. But the day obviously did not belong to Shah Rukh. Members of the Bharatiya Yuva Janata Party garlanded Aamir, completely ignoring the other Khan. Putting up a brave front, Shah Rukh smiled and put his arm around his "friend" Aamir and even flashed "V" sign at the cameras.

C`mon, Shahrukh. When did you become Aamir`s best pal? And if our memory doesn`t fail us, weren`t you the one who rejected Gowarikar`s script when it was offered to you? Or were you actually looking for `reflected glory`?
