If Karan Johar has decided not to let his production We Are Family clash with Salman Khan’s Dabangg it is because Shah Rukh Khan advised Karan to avert a clash.

Apparently, Shah Rukh felt doubly protective towards We Are Family since it involved two of his closest friends Karan and Kajol. In fact, when Shah Rukh came to know Kajol was expecting he went out of his way to accommodate his dates for Kareena in Ra.1 with We Are Family.

Says the We Are Family director Suddharth Malhotra, Dabangg and Shankar’s Robot are releasing on Eid. So we have Bollywood’s Rajnikanth (Salman) and Rajnikanth on the same day. It just made no sense for us to release with them. We are coming a week earlier, araam se.

It’s not just Karan Johar who has gone out of his way for Shah Rukh Khan by doing a bit of shooting for SRK’s Ra.1 in London. SRK too has gone out of his way for his buddy Karan’s film We Are Family.

Throughout the making of the film Kareena’s dates collided with Ra.1. Every time Shah Rukh relented and let Kareena get on with Karan’s picture show.

Says a source, When Shah Rukh got to know that Kajol was expecting he understood that Karan and his director Siddharth Malhotra’s film needed to be shot with as much speed as possible. He repeatedly let go of Kareena’s dates for Ra.1 for the sake of We Are Family. In fact, he will now let go of Kareena’s dates for the promotion of We Are Family, since Kareena will not have Kajol to support her in the marketing. So grateful and happy is director Siddharth Anand that he wants to show the first print to Shah Rukh.

Says Siddharth Both Karan Johar and I are very eager to show We Are Family to Shah Rukh, who proves that he is indeed part of the family. We also want to show it to Soorajji (Barjataya) as soon as the print is ready.

Sooraj, who has become ultra-reclusive in recent months, has agreed to watch the film next early next month. Says Siddharth Soorajji will be the first to watch We Are Family. My film is just 1 hour 55 minutes long. I hope I make him proud.
