Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are both highly acclaimed actors in the Indian film industry, celebrated for their significant contributions to Bollywood. These two stars exhibit unique styles and have delivered numerous successful films throughout their careers. Aamir is renowned for his meticulous approach to script selection and his commitment to portraying diverse and challenging roles. In contrast, Shah Rukh is lauded for his charismatic on-screen presence and romantic performances. Although they are frequently compared and considered among the biggest stars in Hindi cinema, their friendly rivalry is well-known.
“It so happened that Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge’ was released in 1995, and Aamir Khan’s ‘Rangeela’ followed soon after.
Both films proved to be box office blockbusters. However, Aamir received more praise from the audience for his acting compared to Shah Rukh.
Aamir, beaming with joy, hoped that he would definitely win the Filmfare Award that year. However, it was not fair with him as Shahrukh won the award, due to which he was not happy and also got angry. A few days later, reports alleged that SRK had purchased the Filmfare Award, further stoking Aamir’s ire.
He openly opposed giving the award to Shah Rukh and not only raised questions about such award functions, but he also announced that he would never be a part of any award show in the future.
Shah Rukh and Aamir’s enmity increased even more when SRK made some sharp comments on the promotional strategy of Ghajini. Due to this, in anger, Aamir made some derogatory comments on Shah Rukh on social media. He wrote, “Mera kutta jiska naam Shah Rukh hai, mere talwe chatta hai, aur mein usse bread ka ek tukda dalkar puchkar raha hu.”
