In the year 2007, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Saawariya released with Om Shanti Om on November 9. It was Ranbir opposite SRK and Farah Khan opposite a serious director like Bhansali.
ShahRukhs funfilled comedy was an opposite to Ranbir's serious depressing love story resulting in OSO becoming a mega hit and Saawariya became the biggest disaster of 2007.
Another example was of the film Don with Jaaneman,Farhaan Akhtar with Shirish Kunder resulting in another failure in front of SRK. Shah Rukh's stunts, dance and style and topping it all the amazing twist in the plot made it a hit while Jaaneman the musical entertainer couldn't make its way to the BO.
The viewers just couldn't understand what Preity, Salman and Akshay are up to. Therefore SRK and the entire team of Don had a mind-blowing Diwali while the team of Jaaneman had an annoying Diwali.
The year 2004 also saw the same fate of the films that dared to release with SRK. It was Yash Chopra's Veer Zaara with Ram Gopal Verma's Naach and Abbas Mastaan's Aitraaz.
Once again Veer Zaara came out with flying colours. SRK's and Preity's love undying love story and the melodious music of the film left the others far behind in the race.
Aitraaz came behind it at No2 with good music and an exciting plot. Akshay, Kareena's and Priyanka's performances were appreciated by the viewers but the biggest disaster was Naach. Abhishek and Antara Mali couldn't dance their way to the viewer's heart.
