Is Shah Rukh trying to avoid clash with Salman?

likely to see the box office clash of his Raees and friend Salman Khan’s Sultan, Shah Rukh Khan feels it would be logical to shift their release dates so that both the films do not eat into each other’s business.
“I think logic will be to shift (release dates of both Raees and Sultan). We will try and figure out a way so that it doesn’t eat into each other’s business. It is awkward… it’s like what are we doing. I don’t think we like to have it (box office clash),” Shah Rukh told PTI.
The 50-year-old star said he will talk to his friend Aditya Chopra, who is the producer of Sultan, and Salman regarding the box-office clash of both the films.
“Adi (Aditya Chopra) is my family and so is Farhan Akhtar (producer of Shah Rukh’s Raees). With all due respect I will speak to Adi, Salman (about avoiding the clash). I have spoken to Farhan already. If we have to change, one of us will move on,” Shah Rukh said.
“If they are adamant or fixated that somehow due to some sense of righteousness Eid belongs to Salman Khan so be it,” he added.
