Aamir Khan vs Shahrukh Khan
Everywhere anywhere, Salman Khan vs Shahrukh Khan’s rivalry is all over the Bollywood. Only a few people know that Aamir and SRK have an undeclared fight between them. Remember Farha Khan’s Om Shanti Om in which SRK stole the show and while also providing tremendous career growth to Deepika Padukone. Well, the trend has been adapted by our cute little Aamir. Having the film focus on him in terms of acting, story even songs! He has stolen the whole show and yet giving tremendous career growth to the south Indian actress Asin.
Of course how can we forget the six pack, we all can see the competition and Aamir really won that one flawless. One thing which no one realizes is that the competition between these two Khans is from the start. Yes, competition is healthy but we are talking about a personalized competition and it clearly shows when we see Aamir claiming in an interview that King Khan was “scared” to work with him.
“Fight! how can I dare to fight with Shahrukh. He is a very good friend and I have a lot of respect and love for him”. Aamir told the media while promoting Ghajini in Delhi and when he was asked about his views over SRK’s claim over the biggest screen star, Aamir took an indirect dig at the actor by saying, “People who are No 1. don’t state the obvious. For me Amitabh Bachchan is No 1. Does he ever claim about it. Does Lata Mangeshkar claim about it? Superstars don’t need to say anything about their status.”
From the very start SRK and Aamir have never shared screen space and even now. It is heard that they will make an appearance in Zoya Akhtar’s directorial debut ‘Luck by chance’ and guess what? SRK and Aamir will show up individually. This clearly shows that neither of them want eachothers A** to be bigger than theirs.
When Aamir threw the challenge to SRK by claiming that he is no. 1 Shah Rukh did not dare say a word against him. Instead he went on to say, “Aamir is a dear friend and if he says that I’m second to him then it’s a great compliment to him….oops that was a genuine slip of tongue (amidst peals of laughter)…I mean it’s a great compliment to me. We are complete opposites. He is an intelligent, intellectual person, I’m more physical. I do things. He thinks them out. I know his jokes, he knows mine. He is 100% No. 1…I just said Kkkk Kiran…he really loves Kkkkk Kiran”. Of course Aamir truly did himself with physical stuff so boo to SRK.
It is also true that Aamir named his dog Shahrukh. People think that Aamir admires Shahrukh so much that he named his dog after him but little do they know that what the real reason behind that is 
After a thrashing up from SRK’s fans Aamir apologized and said that he did not mean to offend but he thought that it would be a compliment for SRK (sure it was ).

shahrukh is more dissiplnate than the sick amir.srk is loved all over the world ;and amir is knowen only in india.he do that with king khan just using srk’s name so as to be known out of india .but what a pity now amir is known but as a jalous and a mad man sooooo negatif
March 5th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
Amir Khan is just very full of himself and has got a very low thinking, in regards to naming a dog after srk is just very pathetic, being done by a star like himself. And it is true he only wants to be known the way srk is known all around the world… (however we all know that isn’t going to happen with just ONE film through to the Oscars) it is right to say that he’s on could 9 at the moment only because of his film tare zameen par, even srk’s film Asoka went through to the Oscars but srk didn’t b**** about anyone (or look down on anyone) while his film got nominated. It just shows who’s more mature, about their status and who’s deserves to be at the top (i.e. SRK) and about Amitabh Bachchan … well yea he is (was) number one but srk is the top man of the Hindi film industry now, plus compared to some actors srk is much more down to earth than some top actors and he does NOT “state the obvious” it is evident that his status is much more higher than the other khans of bollywood ( and that’s is why the other khans (&others) try taking a dig at him because of the accomplishment of his career)

srk days are gone
March 12th, 2009 at 7:24 pm
who says that SRK’s days are gone that person must be totally sleeping. Because he is not ready to accept that SRK is the only one who rules Bollywood. Aamir always uses SRK’s name in his interviews to collect some cheap publicity, because he knows that without SRK’s name it is not possible for him to become famous. But poor Aamir he does not know that by doing such stuff he himself has made his character down. Talking about SRK he is very much down to earth and an IDEAL human being.

Shahrukh is no doubt the king of bollywood and he will always be. Aamir is a good actor but by claiming that he is NO.1 it shows how cheap he is and his jealousy to SRK sky touching success. Sorry aamir but u cannot become SRK
March 15th, 2009 at 9:51 pm
there is no comparison btw amir and srk coz if we talk about acting then shahrukh is not even near amir because amir khan puts himself in the character no matter what chafracter he plays now let me give you one example in main hoo na srk played a sipahi with long hair role now that is not a versality because fauji people dont keep long hair – and in the climax how can anyone chase a van with fucking rikshaw i think he was trying to become keanu reeves from matrix, he just knows one thing how to dance a sing around trees with girls in movies because thats what he has been doing for years, he needs some change now – he should do some different roles and on the other hand amir khan according to character chnages his hairstyles in almost evey movie. HE IS THE BEST “AMIR KHAN”

Both r diff at wht they do!!aamir can never romance like shahruk n shahruk can never bring the intensity aamir brngs!!period!!
April 2nd, 2009 at 3:29 pm
Aamir is a pro at romance Farah ji. QSQT, Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, Raja Hindustani, Dil etc. are cult classics and landmark hits! In fact, it is Aamir who started the trend of romantic movies in Bollywood, with QSQT!

both aamir and shahrukh are great actors and both have to work together in a movie to applaude the audience worldwide.Speaking of who is great,I think both are equally great in putting up a wonderful show.people say only aamir is versatile but SRK too is versatile and this is shown in films like darr,anjaam(negative roles) and aamir aacording to me has not even touched a negative role.SRK is pretty well versed with not only romantic films but films with serious attitude of the protagonist(Chak de india,swades,baazigar,don)and even has a comedy to his name(baadshah).Dear anuj what else do you want to show that SRK is equally versatile as aamir and even he has got his films to oscars(hey ram,paheli).okay anuj you cannot decide a hero based on a single film.as you say “he should do some different roles ” is wrong as he has done different roles.this proves the versatality of SRK.I dont say SRK is great but just sa that he to is versatile and dear ayush the trend of romantic movies was there from the begining of bollywood.Speaking of SRK and his romantic hits and classics there are many(dewaana,kbhi haan kabhie naa,DDLJ,DTPH,KKHH,DEVDAS,KKKG,KHNH,VEER ZAARA,OM SHANTI OM,RAB NE BANA DI JODI”.So this clearly shows SRK is a pro in romance.

I think Aamir is a sincere guy and choose his movies which has some messages for audience but if you say that aamir is better actor then SRK it is totally wrong.SRK is big performer. we can put SRK after Amitabh Bachan.I think aamir is not any where in this race.Hritik and many more actors comes before aamir in acting.Recently
aamir did some movies which has very good script but all these movies were not hit because of aamir acting they did well because of their script.What acting SRK did in Dar,Devdas,Kal ho no ho,mohabbatain,Swadesh,chak de india and many more was really appreciated by people which makes SRK No 1.SRK has its own class and great facial expression.Aamir is mile away in this race actually he is not any where in race of acting.
August 16th, 2009 at 8:20 am
Its just simple…Amir is jealous..No matter whatever he do…Amir can never be SRK….No one can be second SRK….SRK is the one who took bollywood outside india…SRK Movies now even give competition to hollywood movies. It is never possible for Amir to do that
And by the way if Amir+Salman+Akshay+Amitabh+Hritik and blah blah whatever, all come together, they all can never beat SRK. SRK RULES

If you are here and trying to tell the world that Aamir is not an actor I think , You better off in this blog. Becuase you have no sense that what you are saying. Let me tell you the story. All the major famous and legend actors said about aamir khan , that he is today Gurru Dutt or Dilip Kumar. This is not my words. This is what other Greate actors says about him. Take a look Kofee with Karan , Randhir Kapoor said , According to me Aamir is a great actor and I am seeing him in future Greater then Dilip Kumar or Raj Kapoor. Shah Rukh is popular but remember there is a defference between ACTOR and STAR. Shah Rukh Khan is a Star not an Actor , Aamir Khan is an Actor and he is also supper Star. So please dont say against Aamir becuase you dont like him, You can not ignore or hide the reality. I hope this will gives you the answer. If you have any question email me.

i think Aamir is greater then shahrukh khan i am big fan of shahrukh khan but that is the
reality which year both have came Aamir always beat shahrukh khan. what you see with gajni
and rab ne bna de jodi and lagan and kabhi khushi kabhi gham and shahrukh only do film for money
but Aamir always give to us a pure verity and true moment if you compare with movie i think
shahrukh khan can never give like Aamir(sarfrosh,lagan,jo jita wohi sikender, fanahh,rang de
basnti) his all movie is a trademark shahrukh khan only have a remarkable movie chek de india
which he dont want to do only he have done for his relationship with aditya chopra and second is
swadesh which is good movie but not hit becoz he have no ability like aamir khan

AAMIR KHAN RULEZ

Anuj, what Rashid was saying previously was 100% correct. Srk is very versatile (not to say that Aamir is not). Both are good (maybe not great) actors. I agree that Srk keeps going back to big commercial movies (i.e. Om shanti om, RNBDJ) but has many great critical performances such as Kabhi ha kabhi na, Pardes, Mohabbatein, Swades, and Chake de. However, what we are doing is we as bollywood fans are chiefly interested in legacy. In the biggest actors in terms of impact are 1. Amitabh and 2. SRK. Even Amitabh has stated that he could never accomplish what Shah rukh has done. He said that he “tried” but could never get people overseas to watch his movies-this has been Srk’s doing only. 50-70 years from now every body will remember Amitabh and SRK, but I think most people will not know who is Aamir. He will be somebody lost to history like Bimal Roy. Don’t get me wrong Aamir is a good actor (like SRK), if you like his “style” more than it has do with your preference in movies. Aamir simply does more intense types of movies with anger and guns as well as face offs. SRK, does broader medley of work (in my opinion)like commerical movies, comedies, dramas, sports, comming of age movies etc. Both are solid actors but no doubt SRK has the greater legacy.

both are big star but aamir is continuous performer than shah rukh khan. as compare to aamir srk movies are common romentic stories and other side the whole fans know aamir has great variety of films for his fans.

due to srk whole world thinks indians only make/wtch petty love stories…sharukh acts always as a distraught person with some problems..cheap gimmick
December 2nd, 2009 at 2:03 pm
I had to write here because this debate seems quite silly to me. It’s like comparing apples to oranges. SRK is a commercial actor,he is a Star, he likes to entertain people and give them a dream world to escape into. Aamir on the other hand is a serious performer, he likes to do thought provoking cinema, he wants you to continue to think about the subject of the movie long after it is over. SRK cannot and probably does not wish to do the type of roles Aamir does. Aamir views himself too mature to do the roles SRK prefers, he doesn’t feel fulfilled professionally with them. They are both great at what they do. I like both of them, if I had to choose between them, I would watch an Aamir Khan movie over an SRK movie because I am past the age of dreaming and prefer watching movies with substance. I am an overseas movie goer. I disagree with the notion that SRK brought Hindi movies to overseas audience, the reason for the change has more to do with the quality of the movies rather than who is in the movies. We just want to watch well made movies. My husband ans children who don’t understand Hindi do not watch SRK movies but they love Aamir’s movies as well as movies such as Company, Gangster, Kaminey. These movies don’t have either of the Khans in them but are great movies.

ofcourse srk is the king….heis the best and king ok…..acording to me srk is no. 1… and people from all cver the world like him … amitab bachan has also said gthat srk is the an people frm all over the world like him …..according to me amitab is no. 1 in his reign but today srk is the king and no. 1…..amir is far behind in this race of best actor and super star….and ………………………………….and randhir kapoor is a bastard actually he can never beat srk so thats why he said that i like amir…..when amitab bachan has said that srk is king than who is this ranbir…..ya tell me u dog
February 20th, 2010 at 1:23 pm
i’ve just read the comments from my friends…. my opinion is, Aamir is a better actor than shahrukh. shahrukh rules only with his star power. Aamir doesn’t need any star power, but he is also a super star. He is creative in thinking and he is a dedicated actor. Shahrukh may be the same but Aamir is ahead.When Shahrukh markets himself to gain star power, Aamir promotes his films. Most of the stars in bollywood is waiting for a chance to do a film with Aamir. This is not the case with Shahrukh. Shahrukh fears to act with Aamir because he knows very well that Aamir will outshine him. Great to see both of them together on screen.
