Mumbai: A cold war between Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan is sure a thing of the past.

The director of Bhoothnath Vivek Sharma revealed that the two stars were busy being boys with toys on the sets of his film.

"Shah Rukh would come to the sets at Mehboob studio every second day, Shah Rukh would give Amitji DVD of games and they would play trivial pursuit and Amitji would know all the answers, Juhi and Raviji were one team and Amitji would be the other team, Shah Rukh would ask the questions and Amitji would get it all right, and Shah Rukh said "sirf aap hi kar sakte the KBC!" said Sharma.

Another co-star who befriended the Big B on the sets of the film was child actor Aman Siddique.

"When Amitji met Aman he was like hey buddy how are you? You are in so many ads and I am not doing so many ads now!” said Sharma.

Bachchan and Shah Rukh come together on the big screen in Bhootnath for the first time after Karan Johar's 2006 release Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna.

In the film Big B plays a ghost who befriends a boy called Banku, while Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla play the boy's parents.

Touted to be a family entertainer, the film hits theatres on the 9th of May.
