The Bollywood actor Sunny Deol made a great comeback with “Gadar 2” which shattered many records at the box-office and many people were shocked to see Shah Rukh Khan in the success party of the movie because they both didn’t talk to each other for nearly 16 years after working in Yash Chopra directed movie “Darr”.
“Darr” which got released in 1993 also starred Juhi Chawla, Anupam Kher, etc in important roles and it was a blockbuster at the box-office.
During the shooting of the movie, Sunny Deol had some argument with Yash Chopra and Shah Rukh and the action hero did something in anger which made everyone afraid of him.
Action director Tinu Verma recently appeared in a podcast and talked about that incident. He said, “Sunny said he (Shah Rukh Khan) can’t attack me from the front because I am a naval officer. Sunny was right in his logic. Shah Rukh said I am not Shakti Kapoor, Prem Chopra, Gulshan Grover that I will attack on the back.”
The video clip was posted by an X user with caption, “Shah Rukh Khan said, ‘I’m not Shakti Kapoor or Gulshan Grover who will attack with a knife from behind.’ Sunny Deol was already angry, he tore his Pants in anger and I realized his power. The shoot was packed up and SRK was first to run away – Darr Action Director Tinu Verma”

Tinu Verma stated, “Sunny got so angry eventually that he had his hands in his pocket, and he ripped his pants with his bare hands. Everybody was shocked. Shah Rukh was also there. And then pack-up was announced.”
Few years back, when Sunny Deol was asked about this incident in Rajat Sharma’s Aap Ki Adalat, the “Ghatak” actor stated, “I had a heated discussion with Yash Chopra regarding that scene. I tried explaining that I am a commando officer in the film. My character is an expert and fit, then how can this boy beat me easily? He can beat me if I can’t see him. If he can stab me while I am looking at him, then I won’t be called a commando. Soon, out of anger, I didn’t even realise that I had ripped my pants with my hands.” Sunny also dismissed claims that he stopped talking to Shah Rukh after this. “It’s not that I didn’t talk but I just cut myself off and I anyway don’t socialise much. So we never met, toh baat karne ki baat he nahi hai.”
