The Arab celebosphere might have seen more than its fair share of star feuds but one cat fight no one could have seen coming was between Saudi actors and former BFFs Abdullah Al-Sadhan and Nasser Al Qasabi. 

The duo might have seen each other through thick and thin over the years, starring alongside one another in hit Saudi comedy 'Tash Ma Tash', but vows of friendship were shattered this week when Abdullah hit out at his unsuspecting mate.

According to Saudi newspaper Al Sharq, Abdullah struck an unexpected blow to his pal, saying: “Nasser is my colleague and my lifelong friend, but his talent is imitating and not acting; a true actor is one that can master any character."

And as if that wasn't enough, Abdullah added salt to the wound, claiming: "95% of the success of our popular comedy “Tash Ma Tash” is due to me.”

"I am the one behind the success of Tash Ma Tash and I played many different characters in it that until today that are stuck in people’s minds. Naser would never have succeeded without me,” he said.
 

With TV fans across Saudi reeling from the comments, it remains to be seen if the famous pair can salvage their friendship.
