We have been waiting for a while to see who will blink first in the ongoing filmi battle between Shah Rukh Khan and Ajay Devgn. Looks like we’ll have to wait longer, because neither SRK nor Ajay wants to back off from releasing their films simultaneously during Diwali.

The Oberois are expecting a baby boom of sorts early next year. “It isn’t just Vivek’s wife who is pregnant, even his sister is expecting. Both the babies are due just one month apart around February and March. So the preparation for the twin celebrations have already begun,” says a family friend.
