Kabir Khan brings Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan together in Tubelight!

Mumbai: From hosting an award show to appearing on the Bigg Boss, superstars Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan shared stage together on various occasions after ditching their infamous rivalry but for the first time, the two mighty Khans will appear in a film together.

Shah Rukh is all for his friends and this was once again proven when he, without giving a second thought, gave his nod for doing a cameo in Salman's upcoming war thriller 'Tubelight'.

All thanks to director Kabir Khan who suggested Shah Rukh's name for the role. Salman said, "So, when I called him and I told him that there is a small role in 'Tubelight' which I would like you to do it, before completing my sentence, Shah Rukh said, 'I will do it'. That's how he made his entry into the movie."

The film is based on 1962 India-China war.

When asked if the film will have positive impact on the people, Kabir said: "War and problem are always created by politics. There can never be any hostility between people. This is something we explored in 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' and now in 'Tubelight'. Whenever there is people-to-people interaction, there never can be hostility."

In the entire promotional event, Matin Rey Tangu, the child artist in the film, was seen showing his funny antics, and seeing him, Salman along with rest of the cast couldn't stop themselves laughing.

When asked about his working experience with Matin Rey Tangu, Salman said, "What should I talk about Matin? Matin is born star of Itanagar. He is a superstar. You have seen his energy here at this event and he was the lot more than this while we were shooting for this film. I have never come across funny child like him in my entire life".

"Tubelight" is slated for June 23 release.
