Aamir hints at doing a film with Shah Rukh and Salman

Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Salman Khan -- the big 3 of Bollywood -- have been ruling the box office and shaping Hindi cinema for three decades. While Salman has shared the screen with both Aamir and Shah Rukh, the three Khans have never starred in a film together.

With past feuds, public spats and tensions now seemingly behind them, Aamir teased the tantalising prospect of a collaboration involving the iconic trio. A 'great script' is all that's missing, according to him, reports bdnews24.com.

In an interview with Indian news agency ANI, Aamir revealed that the idea of the three Khans working together on a project has been discussed, though the last conversation on the subject happened "about six months back".

Aamir, whose meticulous approach to filmmaking has earned him the moniker ‘Mr Perfectionist’, said, “I was the person who brought this up and told Shah Rukh and Salman that it would be really sad if the three of us didn't do a film together.”

"I think Salman and Shah Rukh were equally in agreement and were, 'Yes, we must do a film together. The three of us.' Hopefully, it will happen soon."

Asked about the roadblock to the dream collaboration, Aamir said, “It will need the right kind of story. So, we'll have to wait for the right script. We are all looking forward to it."

Last year, Shah Rukh and Salman appeared together in the blockbuster 'Pathaan'. While Aamir admitted he hasn’t watched the entire film, he revealed that the 'train track scene' featuring the duo left him in splits, the Hindustan Times reports.

 “I have found the scene really funny. I have not seen that film but I have seen that scene. You get clips nowadays on Instagram and all that so I ended up seeing that scene it's quite funny,” he said.

"I think all the young actors must have got really upset and you can't even get too upset with Shah Rukh and Salman. What can you say?"
