King Khan&rsquo;s Slapgate The year began on a bumpy note for Shah Rukh Khan who was involved in a fracas with director Shirish Kunder at Sanjay Dutt&rsquo;s bash for Agneepath in January. Kunder had been provoking King Khan by making uncharitable remarks against his film RA.One. Later however Kunder and his wife Farah Khan along with Sajid Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala met SRK and sorted out the issue. <img alt="Shirish Kunder and Shah Rukh Khan" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/dec/Shirish-Kunder-SRK.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 610px;" /> In May came SRK&rsquo;s infamous squabble with the security officials at the Wankhede Stadium. The actor, who owns Kolkata Knight Riders, was allegedly accused of misbehaving with the security personnel for not allowing his entourage to enter the ground. However, SRK defended himself saying that the security personnel manhandled the kids with him, including his daughter Suhana, which led to the altercation. SRK was also linked with Priyanka Chopra. It is said to be the reason behind SRK&rsquo;s best friend Karan Johar and Chopra&rsquo;s cold war. <img alt="Akshay Kumar" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/dec/Akshay-Kumar_13.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 610px;" /> No more Tees Maar Khan Shirish Kunder&rsquo;s Joker had lead actor Akshay Kumar missing from its film promotions.
