This year’s IIFA awards in Colombo may see a face-off between actors Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, who are not on talking terms with each other for two years following a bitter argument.



Both have confirmed their presence at the event, to be held between June 3-5. While Salman will perform at the gala, Shah Rukh is planning to show the rushes of his sci-fi superhero flick Ra.1 .

“I will perform at IIFA. Why else would I go there?” said Salman in a press meet on Wednesday. When asked how he would react if he bumps into Shah Rukh backstage, Salman shot an angry glare at the reporter.

Asked repeatedly, he left the presscon midway, a fact later denied by his spokesperson saying, “The organiser said it was over”. Shah Rukh, too, in an earlier interview had said, “If we do meet what are we going to do?”
