Have the battle lines been drawn?

That's the question on everyone's lips ever since the recent developments over the week gone by as per which Salman Khan would be taking Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif heads-on with his next release. Come 27th May and Salman's 'Ready' would be clashing with Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif starrer 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' at the box office. This recent development had shocked the industry as one had never expected this 'once in love' couple to be fighting it out commercially.

"Moreover, it is not just Katrina with whom Salman has continued a cordial professional relationship despite an apparent turbulence in their personal lives", says an industry insider, "Even Hrithik, who doesn't affiliate to any camp per se, has been on a friendly terms with Salman. After 'Guzaarish' and 'Kites', he would have opted for a solo release, especially so since Salman would now be having a heads-on collision with his film right after 'Dabangg'. This is one clash that everyone would pray gets averted."

Yes, we are praying too!
