In a revelation that has reignited Bollywood’s most enduring dream, Aamir Khan has hinted at the possibility of a future collaboration with fellow superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. Speaking on Komal Nahta’s Game Changers podcast, Aamir shared that the trio is now more open than ever to working together—provided the right story comes along. For fans who’ve waited over three decades to see the three Khans share screen space, this update feels like the first real glimmer of hope.
Key highlights from Aamir Khan’s interview
1. The possibility of a three-Khan film
- Aamir acknowledged that while Salman and Shah Rukh have worked together in multiple films and he has collaborated with Salman in the cult classic Andaz Apna Apna, the three have never appeared together in a full-fledged project
- He stated that the trio is more ready now than ever before, emotionally and professionally, to consider a joint venture
- The only condition: a compelling script with strong roles for all three, one that resonates equally with each actor and with the audience
2. Audience expectations and emotional resonance
- Aamir emphasized that the emotional weight of such a collaboration is not lost on them
- He noted that the audience’s desire to see the three Khans together is something they deeply respect and identify with
- The challenge lies in finding a story that does justice to their individual legacies while creating something fresh and meaningful
3. The 50-50 chance
- When asked about the likelihood of all three agreeing on a single script, Aamir candidly admitted it’s a fifty-fifty chance
- Creative alignment among three distinct personalities with different cinematic sensibilities is rare, but not impossible
- The openness to collaboration marks a shift from previous years, where such a project seemed more like a fantasy than a feasible plan
4. Past near-misses and cameos
- Over the years, the Khans have appeared in each other’s films in cameo roles, but never as co-leads
- Shah Rukh and Salman shared screen space in Karan Arjun, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Tubelight, and Pathaan
- Aamir and Salman teamed up memorably in Andaz Apna Apna, while Aamir and Shah Rukh appeared briefly in Pehla Nasha
- Interestingly, all three have turned down roles that later became iconic for one of the others—Swades, Lagaan, and Chak De India being prime examples
5. Aryan Khan’s Netflix debut and the missed moment
- Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan recently directed The Bastards of Bollywood, a satirical action-drama series for Netflix
- While all three Khans were involved in the project, they did not share screen space, leaving fans yearning for a true ensemble moment
- The series, though well-received, only deepened the appetite for a full-fledged cinematic collaboration
6. What could make it happen
- Industry insiders suggest that a visionary director and a genre that allows for layered storytelling—perhaps a political thriller or a generational saga—could be the key
- With streaming platforms offering more flexibility and global reach, a limited series or anthology format might also be a viable route
- The trio’s mutual respect and evolving openness could finally align with the right creative spark
Final thoughts
The idea of a three-Khan film has long been Bollywood’s white whale—elusive, mythical, and endlessly speculated. Aamir Khan’s recent comments don’t confirm a project, but they do confirm a shift in mindset. For fans, that’s enough to dream again. Whether it’s a blockbuster film, a streaming series, or a surprise cameo fest, the door is now ajar. All it needs is the right story—and perhaps a little cinematic serendipity.
