Shah Rukh-Shirish patch up courtesy Sajid Khan and Gauri

After a tumultuous day of muck-flying and titanic tweeting, battle-scarred party-bashers Shah Rukh Khan and Shirish Kunder called it a truce on Tuesday afternoon, courtesy Shirish's brother-in-law Sajid Khan and Shah Rukh's wife Gauri Khan.
Apparently, Sajid and Gauri called for a meeting at Shah Rukh Khan's residence Mannat between the two warring parties. Over a hot meal and cool discussion, the acrimony was wiped clean.
Shah Rukh and Shirish have decided to start their rapport all over again. Confirming the reconciliation at Mannat, Sajid Khan said, "Yes, I felt terrible about the ugly turn that the whole affair took. Shah Rukh and Shirish had a fight, agreed. But the media didn't have to play it up to the point of making it on the front of national newspapers."
Getting sentimental, Sajid Khan says, "Do you know when my sister Farah and Shirish got married, there were only three witnesses. Me, Sajid Nadiadwala and Shah Rukh. We're family and there are bound to be differences between family members. Yes, Gauri and I took the initiative. All of us met at Mannat over a meal. And it was all sorted out."
Adds Farah Khan, "I can't begin to tell you how relieved I am. This had turned really ugly. And before it got uglier, my brother took matters into his hands. Full credit to Gauri for making the reconciliation happen. When my brother asked her where we should meet she said Mannat because she said it's Farah's home. I am so moved."
Farah says this is not only the end of the ugly spat between her husband and Shah Rukh, it is also a new beginning for her and Shah Rukh. "I really liked what he said. He made us promise to wipe out all the bitterness of the last two years and start afresh. I feel like a big burden is off my back."
All is well that ends well.
