When Sharma asked whether he would

release Chennai Express, Shah Rukh said
this may happen in future.

"Even I am not watching Chennai Express this Eid as I am celebrating
the festival... but actually most certainly, if there is an Eid

everything would be fine." Shah Rukh, who worked with Salman in films
like Karan Arjun, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam and Har
Dil Jo Pyar Karega, said he respected Salman as an actor and star.

"I have great respect for him, not only as
a friend and as a family but as a star and
as an actor. They helped me when I first
came to Bollywood though I am the
senior."
