SRK vs Sirish Kunder, January 2012: It all started at a high profile party at Mumbai nightclub Aurus hosted by Sanjay Dutt, fresh from the success of Agneepath where Sirish accused SRK of assaulting him. The hostilities then continued on Twitter.
Shirish: “Thanks for all your concern & wishes. We are very grateful. Contrary to rumours, we have no intention of filing a FIR or police complaint” SRK responded with: “Reading stuff and watching tv...Feel like I am the source & author of a Shakespearean farce...without the poetry or the prose of course"
As reports trickled in of a truce brokered by Sajid Khan at SRK's residence, the star came up with: "long satisfying day...dancing at filmfare...shoot with prabhuda..dinner with ritesh & genelia at 5am. Best was to meet friends at home again" -
Karan Johar vs Ram Gopal Verma, June 2010: There's never been any love lost between the two directors and things got particularly ugly after KJo released My Name Is Khan and Kurbaan.
RGV: "I (have) got a better idea... I will make 'My name is Raavan' and Mani should make 'Raavan Ki Kurbaan'." KJo hit back with: You have an amazing sense of humour Ramu (Varma)! Never shows up in your films though RGV's rejoinder: "Karan, because of the constant bashing I receive, I developed my sense of humour as a defence mechanism. And talking of my films not having humour, check out the great comedy I made called 'RGV Ki Aag'' He also said: "I hate I Hate Luv Storys for being a big hit and I love I Hate Luv Storys because its K. Jos's (Karan Johar's) film, who I love to hate and hate to love and that's our love-hate story." KJo's final word: "Superb tweet Ramu!!! You couldn't have worded our 'story' better!!" -
Sonam Kapoor vs Shobha De, July 2010: Actress Sonam Kapoor and columnist Shobhaa De locked horns when Ms De slammed Sonam's film I Hate Luv Storys in a newspaper article and blog post titled I Hate Dumb Storys.
Shobhaa De: "As for Sonam, the lassie lacks oomph, even if she does have a great smile and can act." Sonam promptly roared in, guns blazing, with: Guys please don't take Shobha De seriously. She's a fossil who's getting no action and going through menopause." But then apologized: Mrs de I owe you an apology for getting personal. I'm ashamed for my momentary lapse in judgement. And apologetic.. Every writer and journalist and audience are entitled to their opinion and I respect that.” -
Arbaaz Khan vs Anurag Kashyap, March 2011: Abhinav Kashyap shot to fame as director of the blockbuster Dabangg, but was replaced with Arbaaz Khan who produced and acted in the film as director of the sequel. This didn't go down well with Abhinav's more famous brother Anurag Kashyap.
Anurag: "Salman Khan thinks he made my brother's life. Hope he does the same for Arbaaz when he does Dabangg 2. All The Best." He further tweeted, "Abhinav Singh Kashyap, you rock... I love you... Show them what you are made off." Arbaaz's response: "Instead of GRATTITUDE some people show ATTITUDE. Wah kya zamana aa gaya hai. Time will tell. Kabhi asliat ko bahar aane mein time lagta hai." He had more to say: "Successful people always have two things on their lips. "Silence" N "Smile". Smile to solve the problem and Silence to avoid the Problem." Two days later, Anurag backtracked with: "i have a lot of respect for Arbaaz , and also sohail and his father..i will never abuse them.." -

She continued with a barrage of insults, "Be aware of Salman Rushdie! He wants to get girls in his 'whipped cream range'. "Ha ha, since there'd be no 72 virgins for him, he wants to make the most of it before he probably turns 72." Rushdie's retort:, "Somewhere in the distance I hear the envious miaow of #Taslima-Nasreen being catty about me. Tut, tut, Taslima. #Shame #Lajja," -

But, proving that girls do stick together, the warring singers made up as publicly as they had fallen out.
Rihanna: "Ciara baby, I love u girl! U hurt my feelings real bad on TV! I'm heartbroken! That's y I retaliated this way! So sorry!" Ciara accepted the apology with:"Pure comedy.

Perez Hilton vs everybody, September 2009: Gossip columnist Perez does nothing by half measures. He proved this by aiming for some big celebrity guns on Twitter - Demi More, will.i.am and Lindsay Lohan, among others.
Perez and Demi came to blows over a photo of Demi's daughter Tallulah. Perez: "Tallulah Willis, 15, dressing like a slut! Look at her boobs!" Demi's angry reply: "Clearly Perez Hilton isn't taking violating child pornography laws very seriously. He might not but there are alot of people who do! Anyone who advertises follows or supports Perez supports violating child pornography laws!" Perez's arsenal: "Expect another letter from my attorney, kitten. Xoxo"
"P.S. Bring it on, bitch!"
"That fine, upstanding, wholesome young lady is 15. Still waiting for you to retract your incorrect, libelous and defamatory statements"
"And thanks for drawing MORE attention to your daughter's behavior and your parenting skills (or lack thereof). U r real smart!" Demi responded with: "This is not a game. Children should not be exploited. They must be protected." Perez wouldn't stop: "Ur daughter has been an actress in Bruce's films. You 2 have been exploiting Tallulah for quite some time."
Perez accused Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am of assault at an awards party in Toronto. Perez's series of tweets: "oh my god you guys."

"ET AWAY FROM ME WILL.I.AM! YOU'RE A THUG AND YOU DREW BLOOD FROM MY FACE WITH YOUR MANAGER'S HAND!" will.i.am hit back in will.i.am style: "@perezhilton that's not an eye jammie, man. what is this, Wreckx-N-Effect and Q-Tip in '92? My manager was just swatting a fly away."
"you're lucky my man Taboo ain't jump in that ass. right, Taboo?"
Perez opened hostilities with Lindsay Lohan by goading her about her then-16 year old sister, Ali. Perez: "Don't you have more important things to do? You know, like being a good influence on Ali and taking her out to pAArty?!" Lindsay replied: "Humpty Dumpty fell of a wall, no WAIT… it's @perezhilton ! linking to a Twitpic of the nursery rhyme character. Perez responded: "Game on!" Lindsay volleyed with: "some that are as far under as he is, choose not to recognize when enough is enough… DENIAL and INSECURITY should be his blog," and "it's just a way of entertaining myself.. i'm home and with friends.. it's funny, THIS IS HIS LIFE!-how sad?"
