When Aamir Khan reacted to alleged fight with Salman Khan over Dangal and Sultan's similar wrestling theme

As a long-time admirer of Bollywood’s dynamic duo, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, I’ve always been captivated by their on-screen magic and off-screen camaraderie. However, the whispers of a rivalry between them due to their wrestling-themed films were a bit disheartening for this die-hard fan. But, as it turns out, those rumors were just that – mere rumors!


As a dedicated follower, I’ve always admired the legendary status of Bollywood stars, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan. Yet, whispers of a rift between these industry giants have been circulating, largely due to the apparent similarities in the wrestling themes found in Sultan and Dangal. However, Aamir himself has clarified these rumors, assuring us that there was never any hostility between them. In fact, he graciously acknowledged that Salman had a significant part in helping him secure the title for Dangal, thus debunking the feud speculation.

At a special event showcasing Dangal, Aamir Khan shared an intriguing backstage tale about how he managed to claim the film’s title, all thanks to Salman Khan. He disclosed that the title “Dangal” was initially attributed in the script, but the rights actually belonged to Puneet Issar.

Given his close bond with Puneet, Aamir Khan turned to Salman for assistance. Without a second thought, Salman picked up the phone and set up a meeting between them. Despite whispers of rivalry due to shared wrestling themes in their movies, Aamir revealed that Salman’s backing proved pivotal in clinching the title, with Puneet being gracious throughout the process.

I was over the moon when Salman himself reached out to Puneet, sharing that he desired our input for the title of his upcoming movie, Sultan. You see, there’s this rumor going around that we’re competing with each other on a wrestling theme, but let me tell you, it’s not as simple as that. Salman, in fact, sought our aid!

Later on, Aamir was told by Puneet Issar that he had given the title of the film to Aamir’s team at Salman Khan’s suggestion, as he wasn’t using it himself. This is how the movie Dangal came to be known by its memorable title.

In terms of work, Salman Khan is deeply involved in the filming of his upcoming action-thriller titled Sikandar, which is slated for release on Eid 2025. This movie is being produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and helmed by AR Murugadoss.

Currently, Aamir Khan, most recently starring with Kareena Kapoor Khan in Laal Singh Chaddha, is gearing up for the premiere of Sitaare Zameen Par, a film that also stars Darsheel Safary and Genelia Deshmukh.
