Mushtaq Sheikh denies fallout with Shah Rukh Khan, appears in 'Ra.One'

Author-scriptwriter and Shah Rukh Khan’s close friend Mushtaq Sheikh, who makes a cameo appearance in Ra.One that released on Wednesday, has shot down rumours of a fallout.

Rumours were rife of a fallout between the two friends.

"Can you imagine, we're supposed to have fought over a legal problem that has cropped up over Ra.One. If we go by rumours then Shah Rukh and I have fallen out any number of times in the past few years," said Mushtaq, a former journalist who appears in the second-half of Ra.One as a gun-toting goon.

“It is my chance to intimidate Shah Rukh, something I can never do in real life. So I’m playing out a fantasy and loving it,” he added.

This is Mushtaq’s third cameo in a Red Chillies production with Shah Rukh. He played similarly aggressive cameos in Main Hoon Na and Om Shanti Om.

“I’ve very clearly told Shah Rukh when Ra.One becomes a blockbuster, I want my solo posters all over Bandra. He has agreed. But then Shah Rukh never says no to his friends,” he said.
