Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are two of the biggest names in Bollywood and they are known to be each other's contemporaries. Moreover, fans even compare them on the basis of their stardom. In a previous interview, Aamir Khan finally ended the competition as he pointed out the difference between him and the “big star” Shah Rukh Khan.
In 2018, the Dangal actor spoke to Filmfare and shared that he doesn’t see himself ‘as a star’ and heaped praises on his colleague.
“I don’t see myself as a star. But I do see Shah Rukh as a big star and everything else about him… He’s so charming, he’s so handsome and so well-dressed. He adds, “I wore a three-quarter pant and a T-shirt during Diwali. Those pants are so old that even the straps are coming off now,” Aamir said.
The actor sounded impressed by SRK’s wardrobe and revealed that he was forced by his staff to wear a kurta on Diwali.
“I’ve been to Shah Rukh’s house when it was new. He took me to his wardrobe. His wardrobe is as big as my entire house. And the clothes are kept in such an organised manner, categorised to the tee. Suits, shoes, socks everything kept so well. I was like, ‘Wow! Yeh hota hai star ka ghar’. Mera aisa nahi hai, mera sab confusion hai,” he said.
For those unaware, Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have always pitted against each other in a rivalry that ages back to the time of their Bollywood debut. Following this both of them claimed a star status in their own sense.
However, it was Shah Rukh Khan who enjoyed fan attention and mass hysteria beyond imagination.
Aamir Khan’s cold war with Shah Rukh Khan came to the surface when he once wrote a blog saying, “Shah Rukh mere pair chaat raha hai” and later brushed it off, admitting his bungalow’s caretaker in Panchgani was a huge SRK fan and named his dog Shah Rukh, about whom he wrote in his blog.
The two superstars buried the hatchet when they were partying together in 2017, on Diwali, which was hosted at Mannat.
Unfortunately, the two have never come on-screen together, a dream that has always been a hope for their fans.
