Senior NCP leader Baba Siddique, who was shot dead in Mumbai, had played a part in ending the feud between Bollywood stars Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, which had infamously started at Katrina Kaif's party in 2008. In 2013, Siddique hosted an iftar party and ensured SRK and Salman came face-to-face. Pictures from the party were widely shared.
