Salman Khan picks Priyanka and Shah Rukh, Katrina for UAE concerts

It’s almost like they’d never tire from getting even with each other.

Just days after Shah Rukh Khan made a public announcement about how he wouldn’t patch-up with one-time friend Salman Khan publicly, the actors are now deploying silly tactics to get back at each other.

The battleground for their next, supposed ‘face-off’ is going to Dubai.

While both the Khans have been slotted for stage shows in the desert city, it’s their female company that’s caught our attention.

Just after Salman chose to take SRK’s alleged 'friend' Priyanka Chopra for his show, King Khan has hit back with a decision to team up with none other than Sallu’s pretty “ex-lover” Katrina Kaif.

It’s strange how the Khans are now indulging in inane, “girlfriend-swapping” tactics.

Although there has been no official confirmation about either romantic pairings, with Salman-Katrina or Shah Rukh-PC never publicly acknowledging their true feelings for one another, it’s Bollywood’s open secret.

The Salman, Priyanka and singer Sophie Choudry show will be part of the UAE National Day celebrations on December 2. Organised by Creative Hub Events, this event will also host performances by Katrina-lookalike Zarine Khan.

Although a date for the SRK-Kat show is still not finalized, a few organisers in India have confirmed to the media that the final talks are on to seal the deal.

In fact, it is believed that when the show organisers asked Shah Rukh to suggest a B’town beauty for his Dubai show, he instantly picked Katrina.

The Khans’ famous tiff, which ticked off in 2008 at Katrina’s birthday bash, has been revisited time and again. With the conflict attainting much attention recently over SRK’s on-screen romance with Katrina in Yash Chopra’s ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’.

Although it was reported that the two Khans did appear at the ‘JTHJ’ premiere, sparking rumours of a patch-up, Shah Rukh quashed those speculations by proclaiming that a public reconciliation with Salman is highly unlikely.

Even during the promotion work for ‘JTHJ’, Salman made his preference evident after teaming up with the rival film ‘Son of Sardar’ for an item jig.
