Salman Khan and lafdas are never far apart. When he is in a foul mood, he bangs on the door of Aishwarya`s house. When he feels overly protective, he makes a statement of his love for her by kissing her in public. Before his recent Landcruiser fiasco took place, Salman had hit the headlines for going to Aziz Mirza`s sets where he is said to have abused Shah Rukh Khan too. Poor Shah Rukh. Not only did he listen to his gibberish, but he also tried to play the peacemaker albeit unsucessfully.

This is not the first time that Shah Rukh has been trapped unaware because of Salman`s verbal gunfire. A couple of years ago, a few media persons had gone to meet him. But Salman walked in and created a nuisance because he did not want to see the media persons around. Shah Rukh is said to have intervened, and what he did after that was truly remarkable. He approached the media persons with utmost humility and grace so that they could feel a little better after suffering Salman`s verbal onslaught.

After the episode in Aziz Mirza`s sets, many are full of sympathy for Shah Rukh. Said an insider: "Roughing up people is just another day in the office for Salman. But poor Shah Rukh. Nobody is even talking about him because he is not Aishwarya Rai!". We agree. For, let us face it. Salman was a superstar but is nothing more than a superbrat now. Shah Rukh, on the other hand, continues to be a major box office draw. Perhaps, he deserves his due for being decent to a guy who is decent to none.
