Sunny Deol says he’s over the Darr fight with Shah Rukh Khan and Yash Chopra because ‘everyone knew who was right, who was wrong’ | Bollywood News

Actors Sunny Deol and Shah Rukh Khan were in a decades-long cold war after the two worked together on Yash Chopra’s 1993 film Darr. Nearly two decades after the film’s release, the two buried the hatchet as Shah Rukh went to support Sunny at the success party of his film Gadar 2. Now, it seems like the two have made up, as Sunny has expressed his desire of working with Shah Rukh. He also hinted that they have moved on from that fight as “everyone knew who was right and who was wrong.”
Sunny shared at News18 Summit that he would love to collaborate with other stars in a multi-starrer film, and said, “There are so many stars, I can work with any of them. I recently said that I worked with Shah Rukh in Darr, so I wouldn’t mind doing another film with him. Let’s see what we can do now,” he said. The actor was then asked about their infamous fight during Darr, and he said, “Fights keep happening, then people make up as well.”
Asked if he was still upset with Shah Rukh, or the late director Yash Chopra, Sunny said, “I wasn’t upset as such. Whatever happened then, it happened, that time has passed. After that, everyone knew who was right and who was wrong, so it makes no sense to repeat it all over again. Otherwise, how will we move on?” The differences reportedly crept up between Yash Chopra and the two actors because he narrated different versions of the script to them. Sunny didn’t know that his role wasn’t as significant as Shah Rukh’s. Sunny carried that grudge for a long time and never worked with Yash Raj Films.

At the time, Shah Rukh’s role was offered to actor Aamir Khan, who requested that Yash hold a joint script narration, so that everybody is on the same page. Yash Chopra refused to do so and so Aamir was removed from the project. “Yash ji did not feel that he should give a joint narration. On that basis, I was removed from the project,” he told journal Sushma Dutt at the time.
During filming, Sunny was deeply upset with how the shoot was progressing, and at one point, he ripped his pants with his bare hands. “I had a heated discussion with Yash Chopra regarding that scene. I tried explaining to him that I am a commando officer in the film. My character is an expert and fit, then how can this boy beat me easily? He can beat me if I can’t see him. If he can stab me while I am looking at him, then I won’t be called a commando,” Sunny said in an appearance on Aap Ki Adalat. He added, “Soon, out of anger, I didn’t even realise that I had ripped my pants with my hands.”
