Salman Khan jokes about Aamir Khan’s ‘Dangal’

We are aware that the two biggest Khans of Bollywood are set to don the pehelwan avatar for their next. Salman Khan would pack a punch as a wrestler in his Eid release ‘Sultan’ while Aamir Khan would beat the hell out of his opponents in the boxing-ring as a boxer in his Christmas release ‘Dangal.’ Even though both the characters of the Khans are different, the theme of the film looks similar. So when the trailer of Salman Khan’s ‘Sultan’ made it to the internet, a few reports started floating in that Aamir is a bit scared for his film, looking at how Bhaijaan has perfected his skill as a wrestler.

So in Salman’s latest interview, he was asked his take on Aamir being scared, to which he jokingly replied saying, “If Aamir is scared for his ‘Dangal’, then why do dangal? At first he smirked and questioned the authenticity of the reports stating that Aamir is scared and then he said this, leaving everyone in splits.

Getting a bit serious then, he said, “Why will he (Aamir Khan) be scared? Our films are very different. It’s like Shah Rukh is doing a romantic film, then I will not do. Aamir’s film is way way better.” Post this, he once again tried to tickle our funny bones stating that if given a chance, he would have done both, ‘Sultan’ and ‘Dangal’ and would rename ‘Dangal’ as ‘Sultan ki Dangal.’

On the same note, Salman was also asked whether he would like to play a role of antagonist in ‘Dhoom’ series just like Aamir did to which he said, “I don’t know, man. I don’t know why. Because they haven’t asked me yet.” He further joked, “If Abhishek and Uday hire all of those people to come and catch me then perhaps I might but then the climax would be very unfair. With me in Dhoom 4, I would not run away or get killed like other people.”
