Manoj Kumar still peeved with SRK

Kumar is still hurt by Shah Rukh Khan not keeping his promise of deleting the scene in Om Shanti Om in which he was spoofed. “When he came to my house with Farah Khan and Yash Chopra, he told me he’d edit it. But he hasn’t. I haven’t been in touch with them after that. I don’t need them, and they don’t need me. I’m very notorious for my sense of humour, but people shouldn’t hit me below my belt,” he maintains.

But wasn’t all well between SRK, Farah Khan and him after they visited his place to apologise? “If someone comes to your house, you have to be courteous. So, I never gave them the opportunity to apologise. When I was asked about the OSO incident at an awards function, I said they made fun of me and the film became a hit. So, I’m lucky for OSO. In response, SRK told the media, ‘Is umar mein aadmi jo kehta woh 15 minutes bad bhul jaata hai’. We’re not used to such comments. We are used to being treated affectionately,” he laments.
