Shahrukh Akshay Rivalry | Shahrukh Khan Akshay Kumar at Preity Zinta's Birthday Bash

According to the eyewitness, the 'king' Akshay Kumar and 'badshah' Shah Rukh Khan shared some serious cold vibes. The eyewitness said, "Twinkle and Akshay arrived before Shah Rukh and Gauri.

While Twinkle and Akshay acknowledged all the guests at the party, it was pretty obvious that the two did not have any intention of staying there long."

The undercurrent of rivalry between the two stars was apparent when Shah Rukh arrived at the party. According to our source, Akshay wanted to leave before Shah Rukh could arrive.

"The minute Shah Rukh stepped in, Akshay chose to leave. The few minutes that the two were together, they avoided each other.

They greeted one another very reluctantly but after that no word was exchanged between the two. Since there were only few guests present at the party at the time, the awkwardness between Akshay and Shah Rukh was very obvious."

It may be recalled that Akshay's rising stardom had made SRK pretty insecure and the latter made no bones about it.

Shah Rukh even made digs at Akki at a private show organised by Reliance at Jamnagar where SRK was the host - he had said 'so what if he is the king, I am the badshah'.
