Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have proven they are the best of friends. They broke box office records when Salman made a cameo appearance at SRK's spy thriller "Pathaan", which became blockbuster worldwide. 

While Salman didn't appear in Atlee's "Jawan", he made sure to post a special shout-out to his dear buddy and longtime co-star SRK on his Facebook post. 

"Absolutely loved 'Jawan' prevue. Our 'Pathaan' has become Jawan. Now this is the kind of a movie we should see in theatres only. I will for sure watch the first day screening of the movie. It was superb Shah Rukh Khan," read his post. 

Salman and Shah Rukh have been friends since the early 1990s and have had a complicated relationship ever since. They are most known for their roles as the titular brothers in Rakesh Roshan's 1995 reincarnation film "Karan Arjun."

While they've appeared in each other's films on a frequent basis since then, their most recent collaboration was in "Pathaan," when Salman recreated his character as Tiger from his own espionage thriller trilogy to help Pathaan (Shah Rukh) in a massive train scenario.
