Aamir Khan Calls Salman Khan a ‘Better Actor’; AR Murugadoss Shares Insight on Sikandar Star’s Emotional Scene

Bollywood superstars Salman Khan and Aamir Khan recently had a lighthearted yet intriguing conversation with filmmaker AR Murugadoss. The interaction, shared on Salman Khan Films’ YouTube channel, featured fun banter, candid admissions, and some interesting revelations about their work.

During the chat, the two Khans playfully put the director in a tricky spot by asking him to choose the better actor between them. AR Murugadoss, who has directed both actors—Aamir in Ghajini and Salman in Sikandar—smartly avoided answering the question. However, Aamir took the moment to praise Salman, saying, “Sir, actor also, he is better. Have you seen Dabangg?” His statement left Salman grinning while fans loved the humble gesture from Mr. Perfectionist.

The discussion then shifted to emotional performances, with AR Murugadoss revealing that Salman can deliver crying scenes effortlessly without using glycerin. Aamir quickly interjected, clarifying that he too performs emotional scenes naturally. To this, Salman jokingly credited the filmmaker for making it possible.

Sharing his reason, the Maine Pyar Kiya star said, “Look at this guy; whole Sikandar’s bojh (weight) is on his head. He has to go back to his wife and child and then come back in the day again and tolerate me on set.” Aamir agreed with the director’s observation, admitting that Salman’s emotional performances are truly remarkable.

The conversation also touched upon Sikandar’s leading lady, Rashmika Mandanna. Aamir asked about her, and Salman called her “very hardworking and amazing.” He reminisced about their shooting schedule in Hyderabad, revealing that Rashmika was also filming for Pushpa 2 and Fever at the same time.

Despite her hectic routine, she managed to balance everything, often using her travel time between locations as her only break. Salman admired her dedication, saying it reminded him of his early struggling days.

The candid chat left fans excited for Sikandar, set to be a high-energy entertainer with powerful performances.
