      Friends once, foes now, Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan are two stars who stand in a league of their own. However, a factor that still remains common between them is their appreciation for cars and their collection of wheels. So, which of the two is the better Khan in terms of the car collection it is indeed an arguable topic.

      Controversy's favourite child in Bollywood, Salman Khan is the proud owner of some of the best known premium cars in India. Salman seems to be in love with the German brand BMW, as he owns not one or two but four vehicles offered by it. His collection further extends to a Lexus, a Land Cruiser and a Mercedes Benz. The actor recently bought himself the coveted Audi A8, which costs a whopping Rs. 71 lacs to 1 crore in the country and is the biggest luxury sedan offered by the company.

      On the other hand, Shahrukh Khan owns an enviable fleet that includes Mitsubishi Pajero as well as Audi, BMW and Rolls Royce cars, a far cry from the Maruti Van he used to own in his school days. His tryst with cars also extends to his position as the brand ambassador of Hyundai India.

      In fact, SRK, as he is popularly called, is a huge fan of BMW cars too. Adorning his huge collection of imported luxury cars are the most expensive BMWs in the world, such as the BMW 7 Series, costing more than Rs. 1.25 crores, and the 6 Series, which bears a price tag of close to Rs. 85 lacs. Apart from these, his impressive line-up includes the super luxury sedan Audi A6, a Land Cruiser, a blue coloured Rolls Royce, a white coloured Bentley Continental GT and a white coloured BMW convertible.

      Apart from being an avid car aficionado, Shahrukh is also big on gifting luxury cars. Director cum choreographer Farah Khan received a Mercedes Benz S350 from the generous actor for the success of Om Shanti Om. Later, it was the turn of his kids Aryan and Suhana, who were gifted an Audi A6, costing Rs. 38 lacs, by the doting father.

      However, this big-hearted actor cast aside his good side as he got involved in a brawl with Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) on 17th May. A complaint has been lodged against the actor with Mumbai Police. According to the officials at association, King Khan misbehaved with the security guards when he was stopped from entering the stadium after the KKR and Mumbai Indians match.

      Treasurer, MCA, Ravi Sawant, said, “The MCA security personnel told them they cannot do so as the match was over which led to Shahrukh abusing them as well as the MCA officials. There was manhandling too by his people. We have decided to ban him from all future matches at the stadium. We are also going to lodge a police complaint against him.”

      Commenting further on whether the actor will face a ban, Sawant said, “He misbehaved and abused the MCA security personnel as well as MCA officials, including our president Vilasrao Deshmukh, after the IPL match (between KKR and Mumbai Indians). We have decided to ban him for life from entering the stadium in future.”

      President, MCA, Vilasrao Deshmukh, considers the issue to be top priority case and has decided to debar the actor, who is also the owner of IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders, from entering the Wankhede Stadium for the next 5 years.
