Fakta2 menarik mengenai Aamir Khan
- Sebelum melibatkan diri sebagai pelakon filem secara serius, Aamir Khan merupakan penolong pengarah filem sekitar tahun 1983-1985.
- Aamir Khan digelar Mr. Perfectionist di India kerana sikap beliau yg amat berhati2 dlm memilih filem lakonannya. Beliau juga ingin memastikan semua hasil kerjanya berkualiti & berada di tahap yg terbaik. Sbb itu la bilangan filem lakonannya tidak sebanyak pelakon2 lain terutama sekali SRK & Salman Khan.
- Walaupun filem2 Aamir kebelakangan ini merupakan filem2 pecah panggung & box-office, namun Aamir hanya pernah menang Best Actor award sebanyak 3 kali sahaja melalui filem Raja Hindustani (1996), Sarfarosh (1999) & Lagaan (2001).
- Sejak awal tahun 90an Aamir enggan menerima apa2 award filem, apa lagi untuk menghadiri majlis2 tersebut. Aamir tidak pernah hadir ke pentas utk menerima award pelakon terbaik dan juga pengarah filem terbaik yg pernah dimenanginya.
- Filem pertama arahan Aamir ialah "Taare Zameen Par" (2007).
- Aamir pernah "bersara sementara" dalam bidang lakonan antara tahun 2002 sehingga 2004 disbbkan beliau mengalami masalah perceraian dengan isterinya, Reena.
- Aamir memiliki syarikat perfilemannya sendiri, iaitu Aamir Khan Production yang ditubuhkan pada tahun 2001 semata-mata utk menerbitkan filem "Lagaan". Filem ini merupakan filem terbitan pertama Aamir Khan Productions.
- Pada tahun 2012 Aamir menerbitkan sebuah rancangan talkshow "Satyamev Jayate" di mana beliau sendiri menjadi hos. Rancangan ini mengetengahkan isu2 sosial & masyarakat di India. Rancangan ini juga berjaya disiarkan sebanyak 3 season (yg berakhir pd 09 Nov 2014).
- Untuk persediaan berlakon dalam filem "Mangal Pandey"(2005), Aamir sanggup menunggu selama lebih setahun utk proses memanjangkan rambut. Beliau enggan menggunakan rambut palsu sbb x de feel katanya..
- Same thing utk melakonkan watak dalam filem "Ghajini" (2008), Aamir terpaksa melalui work out yg menyakitkan selama setahun bagi mendapatkan bentuk badan 6-pax. Hasilnya mmg wow walopun ketika tu usia beliau telah mencecah 43 tahun!
- Selepas habis shoot filem "Ghajini", Aamir terpaksa menurunkan berat badan beliau hampir 10 kg utk menyesuaikan watak pelajar berusia 22 tahun bagi filem "3 Idiots" (2009). Hasil yg ni pun wow!
- Bagi menjayakan watak dlm filem terbaru "Dangal" (2016) pula, Aamir sanggup menaikkan berat badan dari 60kg ke 90kg. Setelah selesai shoot watak versi 50an kelak, Aamir terpaksa menurunkan kembali berat badannya ke asal bagi memenuhi tuntutan watak versi 27 tahun pula. Yg ni lagi berganda2 wow! Adakah beliau akan berjaya melakukannya? Sama2 la kita tunggu & lihat...
- Setakat ini Aamir tidak pernah lagi berlakon bersama-sama pelakon no.1 Bollywood, iaitu Shah Rukh Khan.
- Aamir pernah berlakon dengan Saif Ali Khan sebanyak 2 kali (Parampara dan Dil Chahta Hai). Juga pernah berlakon bersama-sama ibu Saif, iaitu Sharmila Tagore (Mann) dan juga bersama-sama adik perempuan Saif, iaitu Soha Ali Khan (Rang De Basanti), dan juga isteri Saif, iaitu Kareena Kapoor (3 Idiots dan Talaash).
- Sebelum mengambil keputusan berlakon dlm filem2 tertentu, perkara utama yg perlu diambil kira oleh Aamir ialah skrip filem tersebut. Sekiranya jalan cerita filem tersebut menarik pada pandangan peribadi beliau, barulah ia akan dipertimbangkan.
- Aamir lebih menyukai filem-filem romantis & sentimental berbanding filem2 aksi yg biasanya digemari oleh kaum lelaki.
- Aamir akan berada 2-3 jam lebih awal dari jadual di lokasi shooting filem. Alasan beliau: " I am very slow".
- Sewaktu shooting filem Ghulam, Rani Mukerji (Ghulam merupakan filem ke-2 Rani) tak berani memandang ke wajah Aamir Khan & keep on pandang ke arah kasut Aamir sewaktu berdialog. Ini membuatkan Aamir rasa kekok & meminta Rani pandang ke arah mata beliau sewaktu berlakon. Alasan Rani ketika itu takut terjatuh cinta dgn Aamir (katanya you are so cute that time!). Dgn muka selamba Aamir kata kat Rani, "it's ok if you fall in love!" Baru ada feel katanya...
- Semua scene yg memerlukan Aamir mengeluarkan airmata, Aamir melakukannya tanpa bantuan airmata pelesu okeh, even bantuan bawang merah pun x diperlukan.. semuanya airmata original. Beliau sememangnya bintang airmata gituhh...
- Hobi Aamir pada waktu lapang? Membaca skrip2 filem. Boring, bukan? Tp itu la yg dia suka...
Aamir & co-star
- Juhi Chawla = 7 kali (termasuk 1 cameo)
- Rani Mukerji = 4 kali (termasuk 1 cameo)
- Kajol = 2 kali
- Madhuri Dixit = 2 kali
- Karisma Kapoor = 2 kali
- Kareena Kapoor = 2 kali
- Manisha Koirala = 2 kali
- Raveena Tandon = 2 kali
- Saif Ali Khan = 2 kali
- M. Madhavan = 2 kali
- Sharman Joshi = 2 kali
Aamir paling banyak digandingkan dgn Juhi, namun mereka tak pernah pun dikatakan pasangan yg ideal. Sebaliknya ramai org prefer Aamir dgn Manisha sbg pasangan yg ideal walopun mereka berdua hanya pernah berlakon 2 kali shj setakat ni.
khas utk peminat2 Aamir Khan sahaja...mari cuci mata...

Thanks! Ai memula try cari tp x de benang Aamir...sbb kekadang nk diskas gak pasal movie dia. Yg ada general info about Bollywood...so mcm x best sgt. Sbb tu ai bukak benang ni. Aamir mmg x byk hasilkan movie, tp ya... movie2 lakonan Aamir majority best2.
Tau gak pasal Jaan tuh. Tp Aamir x nk ngaku tu anak dia kan. So ai amik info yg official jah..
Kalo ikutkan Aamir ni byk gak kontroversi kat Bollywood tuh..anyhow ai just impress dgn movie2 lakonan dia.
Tang private life dia... bior le antara dia dgn Tuhan kan. Wife dia dedua pun Hindu, tp dia kata dia akan make sure anak2 dia follow agama Islam.
p/s: Penah tgk interview Aamir & Ira tahun 2014 lps (Aamir tolong promote charity project sekolah Ira kat TV yg melibatkan selebriti Bollywood)... Ira ada sebut nama2 kawan artis ayah dia...cth uncle Abishek..then Aamir kata x pyh la sebut "uncle", then Ira kata kan ayah yg pesan suruh panggil org yg lebih tua dgn panggilan "uncle".. Aamir gelak je & ckp kalo dpn public x perlu la sebut "uncle" tu... pastu bila ditanya Ira nonton ke movie lakonan ayah dia & apa pendapat dia ttg ayah dia.. Ira kata ya, ada..dia rasa ayah dia cool..tp adakalanya show-off...Aamir terus pandang Ira & tanya, "bila masa ayah show-off?"..Ira just gelak je... sweet la diaorg!

Boleh dikatakan gitu gak la kot... Salman Khan tu x pelik sgt sbb emak dia mmg Hindu... half2 gituh.
Harap2 dh lepas jadik pak aji ni, Aamir dpt kurangkan kontroversi2 (akhir2 ni pun dh kurang berbanding dulu) .. tp sygnya wife dia pun still Hindu. X paham la mazhab kat India tu mcm mana.. sbb membolehkan diaorg kawin campur walopun berlainan agama. Ramai jah artis Bollywood buat gitu. Praktis Islam sekular kekdahnya kot... 
Pandai2 la diaorg jawab akhirat nnt. Siapa la kita nk judge diaorg kan... Yg elok kita folo, yg x elok tu sendiri boleh fikir..

SynopsisThe film uses the familiar Bollywood theme of siblings separated by fate. Gangland killers assassinate an honest man who defied them, killing his wife as well. The couple's three sons flee the massacre and lose contact with each other. They grow up in entirely different circumstances and are re-united only when one of the sons, sings the song that their mother taught them at their father's birthday at the hotel.
Shankar (Dharmendra), Vijay (Vijay Arora), and Ratan (Tariq Khan) are three brothers. On their father's birthday, their mother taught them a song titled Yaadon Ki Baaraat which they held dearly to their hearts. As fate may have it, one day, the boys' father witnessed a robbery by Shakaal and his henchmen. To protect their identity, Shakaal decided to kill the boys' father before he could go to the police. So one night, he and his men storm into the boys' father's room and kill both their mother and father. Shankar and Vijay witness the act and flee. They make their way to a passing train, where Shankar is separated from Vijay.
Several years pass by and the boys have grown up. Shankar is haunted by the memory of his parents' murder and is now joined by his friend Usman on a crime spree around the city. Vijay was adopted by a fairly wealthy man who is the groundskeeper to the love of his life, Sunita (Zeenat Aman) and Ratan, was raised by the boys' maid, and changed his name to Monto. With his new identity, Monto started a band and does gigs at hotels for a living and is also in love with a co-singer (Neetu Singh).
The brothers meet several times, yet do not recognize each other. however, when they finally do, they cannot contact each other. Shankar will be caught by his boss, who is the real murderer of his parents. As the movie progresses, Shankar finds out and kills the villain.

Utk makluman uols, ai baru je mulakan aktiviti chasing semula movie2 Aamir Khan & the other Hindi movie nih, especially filem2 lakonan hero2 gen-X spt SRK, Salman Khan & Hrithik Roshan. My sister plak tumpang sekaki minta ai carikan filem2 lakonan Arjun Rampal & John Abraham...tp semua yg versi full HD 1080p atau 720p...baru gambar sharp gituhh..
Ekceli sejak tahun 2003 lg ai dh mula slow down folo filem2 Hindi disbbkan kebanjiran pelakon2 baru... pastu yg otai2 pun mcm dh slow blakon. Heroin2 yg ai suka pun ramai yg mcm slow down, esp. Karisma Kapoor, Preity Zinta, Rani Mukerjee, Manisha Koirala, Madhuri Dixit, Aishwarya Rai.. plakon2 baru menyeksi je lebih..tu yg buat ai tawar ati jap dgn filem2 Bollywood. Suatu ketika ai mcm anti gak dgn Kareena Kapoor tu sbb nyampes tgk dia blakon gedik! Kalo ada filem yg best & glemer mcm Fanaa atau 3 Idiots tu, ai pick up la satu2..baru ai layan. Selebihnya ai x amik tau sgt. Zmn2 dulu ai biasanya beli vcd filem Hindi..kat umah ai ada berlambak, kira mcm hobi la sbb ai suka nonton ulang2.
Just lately ai tertengok byk gak filem2 Hindi baru kat TV...after almost 10 years ai dapati kualiti filem Hindi mmg jauh beza & boombastik gituh... tgk cite Dhoom 3 tu..wow... terbaik la teknik CGI diaorg...setanding Hollywood. 
So ai tergerak hati utk mula kumpul semula filem2 Hindi dlm bentuk softcopy. Lgpun ai ada peluang utk menorrent filem2 Hindi ni... so far filem2 baru Aamir Khan ai dh berjaya dpt, hanya filem2 lama dia je yg ai tgh gigh cari..agak susah sbb ai try nk dptkan version full HD 1080p atau at least 720p... baru best nonton kat TV 60". Mlm td ai layan semula filem Raja Hindustani...mlm ni nk layan Mann plak.. Kira mcm ai tgh marathon la filem2 Aamir Khan la... Bestnya tetiap hari ai ada date dgn Aamir Khan..
Author: leon_mclaren78 Time: 26-8-2015 10:45 AM
Filem Ghajini best ea... ai dh ada dlm simpanan...just blum penah nonton je lagi...huhu... kalo ikut plan ai nk nonton lps abis layan cite Mann nnt..
filem dh lama tp ai blum penah nonton.....hehe...
Author: leon_mclaren78 Time: 26-8-2015 11:22 AM
Ai pun memula tkejut gak...nape Aamir tetiba jadik mcm belon, latest ni gambo dia Hari Raya lps...erkkk... ingatkan bhai mana la..leher pun dh x nampak, dgn x shave lagi..mcm bhai apa ntah...huk..huk...
[attach]155968[/attach]
Ingatkan dia sakit ke sbb org yg selalu bdn tetiba naik gini mesti ada mkn ubat apa2, esp steroid ke kan... rupa2nya ai baru terbace dia kena gemukkan bdn utk filem baru... pelakon sejati mmg mcm tu la kan..amik risiko sbb nk sesuaikan dgn watak. Jauh beza dlm filem PK tu dia nampak kecik je.
Ye...anak2 dia x mewarisi gen hensem/lawa mcm dia.. gen wife dia lebih dominan kot. Kalo ikutkan Aamir ni ada muka mcm arab-look sket kan..anak2 dia more to pure indian-look bila dh besar. Kalo Jaan tu plak, sbb emak dia minah saleh kan? Sbb tu good-looking gak.. tp ntah la...dari mata ai x de plak nampak Jaan ada iras2 Aamir. Anak2 dia yg 3 org tu walopun x de la selawa ayah dia, tp still nampak ada iras2 Aamir. Ntah la...maybe sbb mix dgn mat saleh + gen Aamir merupakan gen resesif (x kuat)..so x nampak sgt la. Apapun hanya Tuhan je yg tau kalo betul Jaan tu anak dia. Kalo nk lebih accurate, kena buat DNA test la (kompem Aamir x nk buat!).

hahahaha
Author: leon_mclaren78 Time: 26-8-2015 01:57 PM
Ai minat Aamir Khan x de la sungguh2 sgt...hehe... kalo ms zmn study dolu2 ai minat Salman Khan sbb suka tgk dia menari... tp lakonan dia mcm over acting sket kan..
Bila zmn Hrithik Roshan mula2 kuar dulu ai x suka sgt2 kat dia sbb ai rasa dia fofuler sbb badan sado jah...tak ensem plak tu. Tp lps nonton cite Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai tu, ai terus tersuka kat Hrithik sbb dia punya skill tarian mmg superb gituh.. lakonan pun x de la over acting, nampak pro walopun plakon baru. Badan dia mcm getah boleh lentur2 walopun sado, tarian yg susah2 gitu dia expert gile..kagum ai... start dari tu Hrithik naik carta ai mengatasi Salman kekdahnya. Tetiba je ai rasa Hrithik tu ensem... eh anak2 Hrithik semua ensem2 & comel2..ikut gen emak dia putih melepak kot..
Ms tu ai suka Aamir gitu2 jah... x semua movie dia ai tgk. Suka dia dlm cite Mann jah walopun ai ada jah beli vcd2 filem dia lyg lain (Raja Hindustani, Andaz Apna Apna, Rangeela, Akele Hum Akele Tum). Kalo movie Hrithik tu ai mmg beli semua..senang nk kumpul sbb dia boleh dikatakan plakon baru...senang nk kejar, semua filem fresh2, termasuk filem yg kena banned kat Malaysia (Fiza & Mission Kashmir). Just skrg je ai rasa filem2 lakonan Aamir lebih best walopun dia blakon x byk. Hrithik ai masih suka, just filem2 dia x semua yg best...cth mcm file Krrish tu mcm nonsense jah...kengkonon superhero tp sgt kartun...ai x suka la. Pastu byk sequel plak tu. Filem Koi Mil Gaya tu x perlu ada sequel sepatutnya.
About SRK, ai kumpul byk gak movie dia. Bagi ai, filem Dil To Pagal Hai merupakan pioneer kpd filem2 Hindi moden...sbb kalo sblm era Dil To Pagal Hai, mostly filem Hindi nampak mcm low-bajet, jln cerita klise, lagu pun mcm kolot jah. Ms tu gigih gak la ai kejar filem2 SRK.. filem KKHH mmg berhantu gituh.. jln cerita sgt unik, unexpected, lagu best2, nampak lebih moden. Berjaya gak la ai cari vcd filem2 lama dia mcm Koyla, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, etc. Bagi ai SRK ada aura tersendiri walopun tarian & body sado dia x dasyat Hrithik or Salman.. lakonan dia pun x se"feel" Aamir Khan, tp jln cerita filem2 dia majority best2. Ni pdpt peribadi ai je la..
eh...panjang plak ai mengulas...

Synopsis
In a typical college in a typical Indian city, the hostel boys Madan Sharma (Aamir Khan) and his friends including Ranjeet Prakash (Ashutosh Gowariker) are a rowdy and troublesome lot. But on one day, when Madan and his friends find out there will not be a holiday for them on the day of Holi, the festival of colors, the boys decide not to attend classes.
The hostel superintendent Professor Singh (Naseeruddin Shah), the only lecturer with some links with the students, watches with apprehension their growing restlessness. A notice announcing a further postponement of examinations adds to the bitterness. A fight erupts out of nowhere between principal Phande's (Om Puri) nephew and another student; the principal's nephew is hurt and the other boy is promptly rusticated. This is seen as a drastic punishment, and the news spreads like wildfire to all the students of the college. Resistance is organized in the library, in the laboratory, in the classrooms and the college grounds as the students rebel against the principal.

Synopsis
Dhanakpur village farmer, Thakur Jaswant Singh (Alok Nath) and Dhanraj Singh (Dalip Tahil) are brothers. They have a younger sister Madhumati, who was used, made pregnant and ditched by Ratan Singh (played by Arjun), the son of Thakur Raghuveer Singh from a big Rajput family. The family refuses Jaswant Singh's request to get his sister married to Ratan. Ratan's family refuses to accept that he is guilty, as they are interested in their status. Insulted, Jaswant decides to leave the village. Unable to tolerate the events, Madhumati commits suicide.
Frustrated, Dhanraj kills Ratan at his wedding and gets imprisoned. The two families are now bitter enemies. Jaswant moves to Delhi, develops his business, and reaches good status; he also raises Dhanraj's kids. Years later, Dhanraj gets released from the prison. Upon release, Dhanraj receives a letter from his son, Raj (Aamir Khan), an ardent music-lover, who completes his education in Rajput College. An emotional Dhanraj sneaks into Raj's college farewell party and is glad to see his son fulfill his dreams.
In a twist of fate, Raj and his buddy go to Dhanakpur to clear his family's land deal. While returning home, Raj falls for Rashmi (Juhi Chawla), a relative of Raghuveer Singh. Raj sneaks into Rashmi's birthday bash. The two meet again at a holiday spot. They become lost in the forest and fall in love while finding a way out together. Raj finds out about Rashmi's family but is unable to tell her the truth. When Randhir Singh, Rashmi's father, finds out about the affair, he immediately arranges Rashmi's wedding. The two lovers take on their families and elope, dreaming of an idyllic life together.
Furious, Randhir hires a contract killer to kill Raj. The lovers have a brief interval of happiness. They stay in a deserted fort, happy in their own paradise. When Randhir gets to know their whereabouts, he goes there to bring Rashmi home and ensure that Raj is killed. Randhir's mother does not wish for this so she goes to Dhanraj and tells him to save them. Raj leaves the fort to bring some wood for their house. While Raj is away, Randhir meets with Rashmi and tells her to come home; he has "accepted their love". Rashmi is overjoyed at her father's words, not knowing the truth. In the forest, Raj is chased by the henchmen.
Dhanraj reaches the fort and repeatedly asks him about his son's whereabouts. They get in a fight and a gunshot is heard. Rashmi leaves the scene to make sure that Raj is okay. He is just about to be shot, but on seeing Rashmi, the henchman shoots her instead. She is shot twice and rolls down the hill. Raj overpowers the henchman and reaches Rashmi's side, crying. They promise never to leave each other. On saying this, Rashmi breathes her last in Raj's arms. A grief-stricken Raj is devastated by Rashmi's death, and says that nothing can separate them. He commits suicide with a dagger given to him by Rashmi, and dies with his head on Rashmi's chest. The final scene is both families running toward them; the lovers are together, never to be separated, as the sun sets behind them.

Synopsis
As declared in the subtitles of the opening scene, the events of the film takes place in a big city in India. After the police riots of 1990, the State Forces were disbanded and replaced by a central one. The police now had more powers. The crime rate continued to escalate. In the wealthier quarters of the city though, life went on… but it was an uneasy calm.
Aamir (Aamir Khan) had just turned 21. He is from a rich family. The only colour in his otherwise mundane life was his obsession for Neeta, an older, more pragmatic woman, who likes him but does not share his plans for their future.
One night, on their way back from a party, Neeta is molested by a local crime boss, Hassan Karmali and Amir intervenes violently. On their way back home in their car, they are intercepted by Karmali and his goons and Karmali rapes Neeta, with Aamir watching helplessly. Unknown to Aamir, an off-duty police officer is a silent witness to the incident. Frustrated, possessed by impotent rage and a sense of injustice, Aamir has to find release. He leaves home... Ironically, he turns to Sub-Inspector Kapoor – the silent witness. Kapoor, pretending to be unaware of the incident agrees to help Aamir, as in spite of dancing to their tunes, Kappor hates the Karmalis and his inability to act against them.(Years ago Kapoor had taken on the Karmali clan, an unwise move that nearly destroyed his career.)
Aamir now feels he has a friend. Till one day, realizing the truth he is shattered. Soon after, S.I. Kapoor is suspended after he loses control in front of his superiors at a party thrown by Karmali and tries to shoot him. His life begins to spiral downwards. Now alone, frightened, without a job and with nothing to lose, he sees in Aamir the means to fulfill his dark, unresolved dreams which has by now taken the form of an obsession.
Together they set about eliminating their common enemy – members of the dreaded Karmali family. Kapoor the embittered cop becomes a dark mentor to the innocent but fearless Aamir. Neeta, unaware of the changes in Aamir’s life, has decided to put her past behind her. She begins, slowly but painfully, to reconstruct her life.
Meanwhile, Aamir slips into vortex of terrifying violence – a road to certain doom. While the first murder he commits drives Amir almost crazy with guilt, slowly he gets used to it and even starts enjoying it. Theirs is a war with no victors, a battle that has no glory. Amidst the lies of a logical life, sometimes the only truth is in madness, in losing control.Finally Kapoor and Amir manage to corner Karmali at his sister's wedding. As Kapoor shoots Karmali dead, he is shot at and killed by one of his corrupt ex colleagues. After Kapoor dies in his arms,Amir picks up his gun and supposedly shoots down the corrupt cop. The last scene once again returns to the opening sequence, where Amir, now on death row contemplates on the events of his short and poignant life.

Synopsis
Hazari Prasad (Anupam Kher) is a miser who dreams of finding a rich young woman for his only son, Raja (Aamir Khan), to marry. However, Raja is a spendthrift who is only interested in spending his father's money on wild parties.
One day as Raja is walking to his college, a passing jeep douses him with mud and the rude response of the beautiful Madhu (Madhuri Dixit) who is driving enrages Raja. He tricks Madhu into thinking that he is blind and then mocks her when the truth is revealed. The two quickly become enemies and play pranks on each other. Raja causes Madhu to trip during a dance rehearsal, and she forces him into a fight with the school's champion boxer Shakti (Adi Irani), which Raja wins.
Meanwhile, Hazari is looking for a bride with a large dowry for Raja, only to find that his involvement in the wastepaper business makes his son a less-than-stellar marriage prospect. While visiting a lavish hotel, Hazari accidentally runs into a rich man, Mr. Mehra (Saeed Jaffrey), who has one daughter. Hazari hires actors to pretend to be his staff and gives beggars large quantities of counterfeit money to masquerade as a wealthy industrialist. He quickly becomes friends with Mr. Mehra and the two agree to marry their children to each other. However, when Raja meets his prospective bride, she turns out to be Madhu and the two refuse to consider the possibility of marriage.
Madhu takes her dislike of Raja too far on a weekend school retreat when she falsely accuses him of trying to rape her. Raja is furious that his reputation has been ruined and reprimands her for her dishonesty and thoughtlessness, pointing out that many men would take their revenge, but he is different. Madhu instantly falls in love with Raja and kisses him in front of her entire class. The two enjoy an idyllic holiday. When they return to the city for their engagement party, Mr. Mehra discovers Hazari's true financial circumstances. Furious, he insults and strikes Hazari who immediately takes offense. Raja and Madhu are forbidden by their parents to see each other again.
Nevertheless, the two continue to secretly meet. When Mr. Mehra discovers this he arranges to have some thugs beat up Raja. He also decides to send Madhu away where she will not be able to contact Raja. Before he can do so, Raja sneaks into Madhu's house and the two are married on the spot. Mr. Mehra banishes Madhu from the house, declaring that she is dead to him. Hazari also disowns Raja when he discovers that he has married the daughter of his greatest enemy. The couple moves into a small shack and Raja finds work as a construction worker. Despite their poverty, they are happy.
Raja is hurt at the construction site. Madhu goes to beg his father for money to pay for an emergency operation. Hazari agrees, but only if she divorces him. He removes her wedding necklace and, in despair, Madhu returns to her father's house. Seeing her distress, he forgives her, but orders her to never see Raja again. When Raja recovers, Hazari tells him that Madhu returned to her father and never visited him at the hospital. Believing Madhu has deserted him to return to a life of luxury, Raja returns to his parents. Later, he discovers from his mother (Sarita Joshi) that Madhu did not come to see him in the hospital because of his father's blackmail. He rushes to stop her from taking a plane to London but arrives after it takes off. Luckily, Madhu did not take the plane, and the two manage to reconcile their parents.
Soundtrack
The soundtrack was very popular when it was released., especially appealing to the younger generation. Anand-Milind were nominated for best music direction, but lost to Aashiqui, that catapulted Nadeem-Shravan to the top spot. Dil is regarded as one of the best soundtracks of its time and most of its songs were instant hits. After the film released and was a success, the makers added a new song (a common trend back then), "Dum Dama Dum", which also became popular. Dil is one of the few films with all the songs being certified hits.

Soon the son passes away; his look-alike son, Devraj, comes to manage the estate. Devraj does not consider Bansiram's land a priority, and years go by. The aristocrat's soul wanders and waits in anguish and pain. When Devraj goes to see Bansiram, he finds an elderly semi-senile man and his grandson, Chotu (Aamir Khan), who wants to sell alcohol on the land. Devraj takes advantage of the situation with unpredictable results.

Synopsis
The movie is set in Dehradun in north India. The movie opens with the description of the various colleges in the city. The Rajput college has students from affluent backgrounds with each student being an heir to a multimillion fortune. In contrast, the Model college has students from poor local households. Other colleges include Xaviers college and Queens college, the latter being an all-girls college with the guys from all three colleges trying to woo them.
The highlight of the town is the annual inter-college sports championship with a marathon cycle race as the prime event. In the beginning of the film, the race is contested between Ratan Lal Sharma (Mamik Singh) of Model college and Shekhar Malhotra (Deepak Tijori) of Rajput college with the latter winning the race because Ratan had an inferior bike. After the race both are felicitated by their respective schools. Shekhar being rich and now the local champion is cocky and arrogant.
Sanju (Aamir Khan) is Ratan's younger brother and is everything that Ratan is not. He's a carefree youngster who is full of himself and is always in trouble with his father Ramlal (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) , who wants him to act more maturely and become responsible like Ratan. Sanju and his little gang, which includes Anjali (Ayesha Jhulka)) (who has a crush on Sanju), bunk sports to smoke cigarettes and roam around town. Anjali and her dad run a vehicle repair shop and Anjali's father asks his daughter to stay away from Sanju.
Ramlal and his family run a small cafe which is the hangout spot for most of the college students. A number of scuffles occur between Sanju and Shekhar because of Shekhar's attempts to humiliate Ratan and his dad. Enter Devika (Pooja Bedi), who immediately catches the fancy of both Sanju and Shekhar. Initially she leans towards Shekhar but one day she misses her bus on the way to a picnic to meet Shekhar. Meanwhile Sanju asks Anjali for a car so that he can roam around town. While on his way he spots Devika and leaves his friends at the paan shop and gives Devika a lift. Devika upon reaching her destination finds Shekhar with another girl and goes along with Sanju who, although not rich, brags about his wealth.
Sanju's lie is ultimately revealed when Devika sees him dancing in the Model college group during a dance competition. After the show, Sanju and Devika break up that evening and in heated argument, Sanju fights with Shekhar's friends. Sanju is almost overpowered when his brother intervenes and chases Shekhar's friends away. Ramlal asks Sanju for the money he had given him to deposit in the bank (which he spent on Devika) which leads to a heated argument between Sanju and his dad and Sanju leaves the house
Next morning, Ramlal leaves for town and Ratan is out cycling.While going for cycling Ratan tells Sanju that his Dad has forgiven him and asked him to return home which Sanju, in anger takes on deaf ears. A heated argument and fight ensue between Ratan and Shekhar, which end in tragedy when Ratan accidentally falls off a cliff. While Ratan is in hospital, Sanju recollects his childhood with Ratan. When his father returns, he reconciles with him. With Ratan in the hospital, Sanju becomes more responsible and starts to care for his father and bed ridden brother. He decides that he will participate in the race with the help of Anjali and give it his best for Ratan. During his training, he realises his true feelings for Anjali and the two accept each other.
A day before the race, Sanju finds out about the real cause of the accident and confronts Ratan who tells him that he didn't say anything because Sanju had become responsible and closer to all of them. Ratan asks Sanju to give his best in the race if he wants to do something for him.
With his new cycle, Sanju participates in the race. The race begins evenly with both Sanju and Shekhar going head to head. Somewhere in the middle, the two fall and a scuffle ensues between Sanju and Shekhar and his friends. During this, other cyclists take the lead. Shekhar heads back on track with his friends holding Sanju back. Sanju breaks free and joins the race, catching up with Shekhar during the final laps of the race and finally beating him in the closing moments, giving Model college, his father & brother their long awaited victory.
The plot has certain similarities to the 1979 American movie Breaking Away.

The music for the movie composed by Jatin Lalit and lyrics were penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri. It was nominated for Best Music at the Filmfare Awards 1993. The song "Yahaan Ke Hum Sikander" was inspired by The Who's Pinball Wizard. The soundtrack, their second collaboration, helped to launch their career. "Pehla Nasha" was the fourth film song in Indian cinema (the first one being "Jogi O Jogi" from "Lakhon mein ek" a 1971 movie followed by "Baare Baare" from Naagarahaavu a 1972 film starring Vishnuvardhan & Aarthi and the third one being Kamal Hassan starrer Tamil movie Michael Madana Kama Rajan in 1990) to be shot in complete slow motion and the trend caught up subsequently with many films and music videos. Pehla Nasha was the most popular track of the album and has become a cult song. Other popular tracks were Humse Hai Sara Jahan, Rooth Ke Humse and Arre Yaaron Mere Pyaaron.
All lyrics written by Majrooh Sultanpuri, all music composed by Jatin Lalit.

Synopsis
The wealthy Thakur Bhavani Singh (Sunil Dutt) lives in a remote region of India where he shares an intense rivalry with a local gypsy clan led by Gora Shankar (Anupam Kher). Parampara (tradition) dictates that differences are resolved with a single bullet pistol duel at the top of a hill. Years earlier, Bhavani Singh fought a duel with Gora Shankar's father and killed him.
Bhavani's son Prithvi (Vinod Khanna) returns from London and strikes up a friendship with Shankar and his clanmates, much to the dismay of his father. As Prithvi gets closer he falls in love with Shankar's sister Tara (Ramya Krishna). His father however has arranged Prithvi's marriage with the daughter of a fellow upper-class acquaintance. Prithvi is unable to make up his mind and ends up defiantly marrying Tara against his father's wishes - and subsequently marrying the girl of his father's choosing, Rajeshwari (Ashwini Bhave).
Later, Bhavani Singh discovers Tara has given birth to Prithvi's son and to his fury, orders his men to attack the gypsy colony and to kill Tara, her son and anyone who comes in the way. The Thakur's men set the camps ablaze, killing Tara but not her son, Ranvir. Shankar, who also survived the attack storms in to kill Bhavani Singh in revenge but he is arrested and imprisoned. Prithvi, tells his father that he will never acknowledge his presence again and despite living in the same house, his father will never hear his voice. Rajeshwari then presents him with the rescued Ranvir, earning the respect and love of her husband. Rajeshwari gives birth to a son Pratap, whom Bhavani Singh recognises as his true grandson. Both Ranvir and Pratap are brought up in the same household by Prithvi and Rajeshwari but both boys eventually realise that there is a difference between the two.
Gora Shankar is released from prison and returns to challenge Bhavani Singh to a pistol duel, but before the old man can respond, Prithvi intervenes and says the duel should be fought among equals and that Shankar should be duelling him, not his father. Shankar, who still sees Prithvi as his friend, reluctantly accepts and the duel is set for the next day.
Prithvi silently takes his father's blessing and heads to the hill alone. At the duel, both Shankar and Prithvi take their pistols and begin to pace away from each other. As the shot to turn and fire is heard, both men turn and aim - but only Shankar fires, shooting Prithvi in the chest. He runs immediately to Prithvi who reveals he never loaded his gun. As Prithvi dies, he tells Shankar to take Ranvir far away from his father, hoping no more blood will be shed in petty rivalry. At Prithvi's funeral, both Bhavani Singh and Gora Shankar draw their swords and challenge each other but are stopped by Rajeshwari. Shankar takes Ranvir and leaves the region for good.
Years later, both of Prithvi's sons meet in college as strangers, not knowing the identity of the other. Firstly rivals, the two become close friends but after Pratap (Saif Ali Khan) recognises Gora Shankar at Ranvir's (Aamir Khan) house, the two quickly realise that their past is linked but after years of being influenced by their respective guardians, they share a hatred of one another's families. Ranvir blames Bhavani Singh for killing his mother, while Pratap blames Shankar for killing his father.
Despite the efforts of Shankar and Rajeshwari to end the fighting which will only lead to tragedy, Ranvir ends up challenging his grandfather Bhanvi Singh to a duel. Pratap, echoing the words of his father years ago, states that the duel should be fought among equals and with that the challenge is set.
The next day Pratap arrives with Rajeshwari and Ranvir with Shankar. Just as the battle is about to start, Bhavani shows up on his horse to watch from a distance. The two brothers turn their back to each other and start to pace away. As they do this their grandfather watches them and begins to see visions of his son Prithvi as he looks at both Ranvir and Pratap. The signal to turn and shoot is given and both men turn and fire instinctively - only to see their grandfather between them having taken both their bullets. As Bhavani stumbles to the ground, he cries out for Prithvi, revealing the years of torment of losing his son. The brothers rush to the fallen old man who in his last moments tells them of his regret and hopes that with his death there is no further bloodshed.
After the funeral, Ranvir and Pratap are about to head their separate ways but stop to embrace each other as brothers for the first time.

Synopsis
Rahul Malhotra (Aamir Khan) is the caretaker of a garment company that has a pending order of two lakh shirts to Mr Bijlani. Rahul is also the guardian of his deceased sister's mischievous kids: Sunny, Munni, and Vicky. He finds it hard to control the kids, as he is new to this. When the kids cause trouble, Rahul punishes them by locking them in their room. However, the children escape and head for a carnival in town.
Vyjayanti (Juhi Chawla) is the bubbly daughter of a South Indian businessman and music-lover. Her father wants her to marry Natarajan, an Iyer-clan music legend, who is somewhat creepy. Vyjayanti refuses to marry him; as punishment, she is also locked up and escapes. She meets the three kids at the carnival and they become friends. Vyjayanti explains that she has no home so the children invite her to stay with them.
The children go to great lengths to hide Vyjayanti from Rahul. In a row of hilarious sequences, they are always one step ahead of Rahul before he can discover Vyjayanti. Two nights later however, Vyjayanti is revealed. Initially angry, Rahul sees that the children love her so he gives her a job as the children's governess. Vyjayanti begins to live with Rahul and the kids and slowly falls in love with Rahul.
Seductive, glitzy Maya, Bijlani's daughter, is obsessed with Rahul. She wants to marry Rahul, and Rahul approves, deciding that it would benefit the children. When Vyjayanti and the children find out about Maya and Rahul's upcoming engagement ceremony, Vyjayanti is heartbroken and the kids are upset, as they dislike Maya. On the day of the engagement, Vyjayanti explains to the kids that she loves Rahul and wants to marry him. The kids come up with a plan to stop the engagement. They crash the party with a dramatic act, which successfully postpones the engagement but angers Rahul. Back home, he scolds Vyjayanti and she admits that she loves him, shocking him.
The next morning, Bijlani comes with Maya to offer Rahul a second chance. Rahul defends Vyjayanti against their insults, thereby expressing his own love for her. The mischievous kids chase Bijlani and Maya out of the house with rotten eggs and tomatoes. As revenge, Bijlani and Maya set on auctioning Rahul's house. Rahul asks his workers to work overtime to make up for the shirt orders, which the supportive workers agree to. A successful two lakh shirts are made and loaded on to a truck to be delivered to Bijlani. Bijlani hires some thugs to ensure that the truck doesn't arrive on time. Much to their distaste, Rahul arrives on time with the order, and Bijlani and Maya are arrested.
Vyjayanti is reunited with her father, who disapproves of her marrying anyone outside the Iyer clan. All the factory workers, Rahul's colleagues, and the children ask him to allow Rahul and Vyjayanti to marry. With so much persistence, he accepts and Vyjayanti and Rahul are married in a South Indian ceremony.

Synopsis
It's a story of two men competing for the hand of an heiress get drawn into love – and into trying to save her from an evil criminal. Amar (Aamir Khan) and Prem (Salman Khan) are two daydreamers with a common aim: getting rich by marrying a rich heiress, Raveena Bajaj (Raveena Tandon), daughter of Ram Gopal Bajaj (Paresh Rawal). The guys run into each other on a bus and soon realise that they have a common goal. The duo fail at various attempts to woo the lady.
Finally, they decide to insinuate themselves in her house. Amar pretends to be a guy who has lost his memory after getting hit by Raveena, while Prem pretends to be a doctor. The boys don't know that Raveena's secretary Karishma (Karisma Kapoor) is the real Raveena and Raveena's actual name is Karishma. Raveena switched her identity because she wanted to find a boy who will love her, not her money.
Nobody is aware that Ram Gopal has a twin brother called Shyam Gopal Bajaj aka Teja. Teja is a criminal who has taken lots of money from Crime Master Gogo (Shakti Kapoor). Teja hopes to land the riches himself by kidnapping his brother and posing as Ram. He has also planted his cronies Robert (Viju Khote) and Bhalla (Shehzad Khan) in the household.
Ram arrives in India & Teja plans to steal Ram's money converted in diamonds. Here, Ram sees through the real nature of Amar & Prem, thus declining Raveena's marriage to either of them. The duo plan to fake a kidnapping where they will heroically "rescue" Ram. Unknown to them, Teja has planned to kidnap Ram as well.
Teja succeeds in having Ram kidnapped. The boys go to rescue Ram, but Teja makes them believe that he is Ram and finally enters Ram's household. Initially, nobody suspects a thing, but the girls soon smell a rat. The boys have discovered real identities of the girls. Prem has fallen for real Raveena while Amar has fallen for real Karishma.
The girls tell their suspicions to the boys. The boys tail Teja and soon find out the truth. Here, Ram tricks Teja and escapes the prison. However, the boys mistake him for Teja, resulting in Ram being imprisoned again – with Amar & Prem. However, Amar & Prem succeed in convincing Robert & Bhalla that Ram is actually Teja.
The boys, along with Robert & Bhalla, stop Teja. However, Ram is kidnapped along with Raveena & Karishma. The climax takes place in Gogo's lair, where the boys try to control the situation along with Ram. In a comic standoff, the real motive of each villain is revealed. However, due to the smartness of the boys, police raid Gogo's lair, thus rounding up all the criminals. Ram finally decides to have the girls married to Amar & Prem.

Synopsis
The story opens with a group of people travelling in a bus. The bus is stopped on its way and a bunch of hooligans board the bus and create a nuisance when a man tricks them into getting off the bus. Later the bus stops for a tea break and the hooligans arrive at the same time when suddenly a passing convoy is attacked and the assassins try to kill the man inside one of the cars. The man using his swiftness foils the attack and manages to nab and arrest one of the attackers while killing another. The rest manage to escape the scene.
This man is Inspector Amar Damjee (Aamir Khan) and the person in the car turns out to be Chief Minister Vishwasrao Chowdhury (Raza Murad) who was impressed with Amar and delegates to him the task of locating the people behind a multi-crore rupee international scandal to Amar. Amar promises to fulfill the job to the best of his ability.
It is shown that Chaubey (an assistant to the CM) was the one who committed the fraud and is trying to ensure that he is not caught and hence he had asked the assassins to attack the CM. Amar tries to break the back of crime and this starts irritating Chaubey who senses how close Amar is getting. Chaubey then frames Amar for the murder of the daughter of the Police Commissioner Mazumdar(Kulbhushan Kharbanda).
Amar, after a long fight with the head assassin Raghu, escapes prison along with several others. He then plots a scheme to go undercover as a woman to find the man behind all of this. He finds Chaubey and recognizes him as the man who killed both his parents. Eventually, Chaubey's assassins take everyone hostage in a 12-story tower in attempt to attack the CM once again, but Amar slowly but surely rids of them all. As Chaubey tries to escape the scene via a helicopter on the terrace, Amar prevents him and eventually knocks him into a satellite dish, electrocuting Chaubey to death. Amar is congratulated by the CM and the Police Commissioner.

Production
Aatank Hi Aatank (‘95) was produced by director Dilip Shankar’s wife, Mangal. Initially, they had thought of naming it Aatank, and had planned to cast Shah Rukh Khan and Rajinikanth in the lead roles. However, their dates were not matching, and finally, Dilip and Mangal Shankar approached Aamir Khan, for Shah Rukh Khan’s role. Aamir agreed to do the film. This is the only film in which Aamir Khan and Rajinikanth have been seen, together.
For a sequence in the song "Aakha Hai Bombai", Aamir Khan was to play the ‘dafli’. While the unit broke for lunch, Aamir Khan walked up to the choreographer, and requested the choreographer to let him practice playing the ‘dafli’, to get the correct beat, and not look uncomfortable on screen. He skipped lunch, and practiced through the lunch break, and finally, when the sequence was shot, he gave a perfect shot.
To get a perfect look in the film, Aamir Khan bought himself a new wig and was very excited to wear it. Director Dilip Shankar was not very convinced about the look, but he did not want to disappoint Aamir, or dampen his spirits and, hence, allowed him to wear the wig in the film. Dilip Shankar says that, till date, he regrets allowing Aamir to wear the wig, and is convinced that he would have looked better without it.
Actor Rajinikanth and director Dilip Shankar became good friends while shooting for this film. Once, when they couldn’t get a good car, Dilip’s assistant sent an old, run-down car to pick up Rajinikanth. He traveled without any complaints, despite the car breaking down once. Another time, Dilip Shankar told Rajinikanth at 4 pm, that his shots were over for the day, but Rajinikanth did not leave, and waited for almost five hours, helping Dilip Shankar finish the shoot, so that they could go and have dinner together.
Aamir Khan is known for his honesty and professionalism. Once, director Dilip Shankar had requested Aamir to come in for a 7 am shift. By the time Aamir reached the sets, it was well past 9 am. Dilip Shankar expected Aamir to throw starry tantrums, when asked for the reason of delay, but Dilip was surprised, when Aamir apologized profusely, saying he had overslept.
Director Dilip Shankar, who is also the screenplay and story writer of this film, had conceived a scene of a conflict between Om Puri and Aamir Khan. However, when he discussed the same with the actors, Aamir thought, that the scene did not make sense in the film, and that they should not shoot it. Dilip Shankar thought otherwise, and shot the scene. While editing that scene, he realized that Aamir was right, and finally, decided not to keep the scene in the film.
Shankar missed a near fatal accident, while shooting for Aatank Hi Aatank (‘95). Once, while shooting on the banks of river Chenab, Dilip Shankar was so engrossed in the shot that he did not look where he was going. He almost tripped and could have fallen into an uncovered deep well, had it not been for the presence of mind of his fight director, who saved him, in the nick of time.

Synopsis
Rohit Kumar (Aamir Khan) is an aspiring playback singer while Kiran (Manisha Koirala) is an ambitious classical singer-in-training. They meet, relate to each other's sentiments, fall in love and get married. When Kiran's parents oppose their marriage, they decide to lead a separate life.
However, after marriage, Kiran's ambitions take a back seat as she feels suppressed by her household responsibilities and her son's look after. Time fails to abate Kiran's frustration until she decides to leave Rohit and start a new life all over again. Now a loner, Rohit is forced to look after both his son and his own falling career. After some obvious teething troubles, Rohit succeeds in creating a separate world for himself and his son, Sunil.
Meanwhile, Kiran becomes a huge film star. She tries to reconcile with Rohit but as luck would have it, Rohit is a proud man and misinterprets her support as her pity and things become worse. A court case is eventually filed for the custody of Sunil.
Rohit faces a tough time preparing for the case as his financial position is not as sound as Kiran's. He sells his best songs at a very low price so that he can fight the custody battle. During the court battle, Kiran's lawyer Bhujbal (Paresh Rawal) uses every possible trick to show that Rohit does not deserve the custody of his child. He even uses the information that Rohit had told Kiran (only because he felt that she had a right to know about her son's life) against him. Rohit instructs his lawyer to fight the case honestly as he does not wish to hurt Kiran and her reputation. In the end the court rules in favor of the mother and Kiran is given custody of the child. During this time, common friends of Rohit and Kiran try to explain to Kiran that Rohit had changed for the better and that he was now very much attached to his son. Kiran also realises that their son would never find happiness only with her. She tells Rohit that she will not take Sonu away and that she wants him to stay at his own home to which Rohit replies that this was Kiran's home as well. Kiran seemingly moves to get out of the house but then closes the door and smiles.
Rohit and Kiran hug each other and their son and the movie ends.
The film is an Indian Remake of Kramer vs. Kramer, but with a different ending.

Synopsis
The title character, Raja Hindustani (Aamir Khan), is a taxi-driver / tourist guide. He lives by his own simple code and is prone to violence when that code is violated. Aarti Sehgal (Karisma Kapoor) is a wealthy debutante who is seeking to connect with her past. Standing in the way of their love are a disapproving father and a stepmother bent on obtaining total control of the family assets.
Wealthy Mr Sehgal (Suresh Oberoi) lives with his daughter, Aarti, and her stepmother Shalini (Archana Puran Singh) in a palatial home. Aarti decides to go for a vacation to a small hill station named Palankhet to discover the memories of her dead mother. Upon arrival, she finds out she has no transportation from the airport to Palankhet (few location in Ranikhet also). As a result, she hires the services of the only available driver, Raja Hindustani. During her stay in Palankhet, Aarti and Raja fall in love. One day, to Aarti's surprise, her father arrives in Palankhet and intends to take her home with him. Her father will accept the marriage on the condition that Raja come to Mumbai and learn to become a respectable member of society. Raja refuses and forces Aarti to make a decision. Aarti chooses Raja, but begs for her father's blessings. Her father refuses to offer his blessings and leaves for Mumbai.
After some time, Mr Sehgal forgives his daughter, and visits her in Palankhet. While there, he gifts his daughter and son-in-law a new house. Raja refuses to live in the house because he does not see the house as a gift, but rather as alms, since he is poor and Mr. Sehgal is rich. Shalini, her brother, Swaraj (Pramod Moutho), and her nephew Jai (Mohnish Behl) seek to exploit this conflict to gain total control of Mr. Sehgal's assets. Under the pretext of a birthday party, they bring Raja and Aarti to Mumbai and set in motion events that will change all their lives forever. As a result, Aarti and Raja separate. Aarti was pregnant but due to her health problems the doctor forbids her to go to Palankhet and instead her stepmother is asked to go to Palankhet to inform Raja about his baby and to request him to come to Mumbai. However, instead Aarti's stepmother chooses to tell Raja that Aarti wants to divorce him but Raja refuses, and back in Mumbai even Aarti refuses to give Raja divorce. After sometime Raja comes to know that Aarti has a baby so he goes to Aarti's house and steals the baby. But Aarti cannot live without her baby so she comes to Raja's house begging for her baby where they all learn the truth that Aarti's stepmother is the culprit. When Raja returns home with the baby he sees Aarti and starts to run away but in the road there is a fight between Aarti's step-uncle and Raja for the capture of the baby as Aarti 's step-uncle wants to kill the baby but Aarti 's step-uncle loses at last; Aarti and Raja reunite.

Synopsis
Ranjit Rai (Sadashiv Amrapurkar) and Harbanslal (Dalip Tahil) are two wealthy business magnates who despise the poor. Thus, they decide their children, Ajay (Ajay Devgan) and Madhu (Juhi Chawla), will marry wealthy spouses. They try to break their children's friendship with Raja (Aamir Khan) and Kajal (Kajol), who are both poor. They fix up Ajay's marriage with Madhu and send Ajay to meet Madhu. As fate would have it, Ajay falls in love with Kajal instead and Raja and Madhu fall in love. This angers the two men, and they try to bribe Raja and Kajal into leaving Madhu and Ajay. When this doesn't work, they try to get Raja and Kajal killed. When the children realize what their fathers really did, they refuse to back down, their determination set in stone.
Eventually, the parents play a nasty trick. They make the four lovers believe that they have changed their ways and are ready for their children to marry the person they wish to. On the way to Raja and Madhu's engagement ceremony, the fathers have Kajal kidnapped. Raja saves her from being raped and comforts her. Meanwhile, without their knowledge, photos are taken of them. The fathers then show the photos of Raja comforting Kajal at the party. Taken out of context, the photos make it look like Raja and Kajal are being intimate with each other. Raja and Kajal are willing to prove their innocence, but the fathers keep them away. To make matters worse, Kajal's uncle falsely testifies to the fabricated illicit affair between the two. In fact, Kajal's uncle was paid to lie to Ajay and Madhu.
Ajay and Madhu break up with Kajal and Raja, and the fathers' plan to create a rift between Ajay and Raja, once the best of friends, succeeds. The situation worsens further when Ajay and Madhu think that Kajal is pregnant with Raja's child. They tell Raja and Kajal that they are getting married, which is what their fathers wanted all along. After hearing this, Kajal tries to kill herself, but Raja stops her. He attacks Ajay and Madhu. Raja tries to rape Madhu, but Ajay saves and comforts her. The police beat Raja brutally and Kajal pleads the fathers to release him. The fathers agree, but on the condition that Kajal and Raja leave the country for good. Kajal agrees and Raja is set free.
Ajay and Madhu's wedding is about to start when Ajay's uncle shows them pictures of Ajay comforting Madhu, taken out of context. This proves that Raja had attacked them to recreate the situation he and Kajal had been in, which in turn proved that Raja and Kajal are innocent and that the fathers did all this. Kajal's uncle also confesses. Angry and heartbroken, Ajay almost chokes his father to death but his conscience stops him. He then tries to kill himself but Madhu stops him. Ajay and Madhu rush to the shipyard and succeed to stop Raja and Kajal. They ask for forgiveness and the lovers get back together. The fathers arrive, having realized their grave mistake, and also ask for forgiveness. The lovers forgive them and the film ends on a happy note.

Synopsis
Siddharth "Siddhu "Marathe (Aamir Khan) is a Mumbai tapori, a boxing champion. His brother, Jaidev "Jai" (Rajit Kapur), is the accounts manager and right hand man for Raunak "Ronnie" Singh (Sharat Saxena), a former boxing champion who ostensibly runs a travel agency but in reality rules the local community by terrorising people and stealing money from innocent merchants. Other than his boxing practice, Siddhu leads a relatively aimless and wanderlust life. In his spare time, he hangs out with friends, occasionally stealing money from rich people. Siddhu is financially dependent on his elder brother Jai, who lives in Raunak Singh's house but occasionally visits Siddhu and tops up his finances.
The opening scene features a female lawyer Fatima Madam (Mita Vashisht) defending Siddhu in court against accusations of small-time theft. The lawyer tries to convince the judge to show leniency towards Siddhu on account of his disadvantaged background as an orphan. The judge points out that Siddhu has already been shown leniency four times, and is greeted with laughter by everybody, including Siddhu. In the commotion, Siddhu steals Rs. 400 from his own lawyer's purse. Siddhu is let free. Later, when he asks the lawyer what her fees are, she asks him for a fees of Rs. 400, and he is thus forced to part with the money he has just stolen. The lawyer gives no indication of awareness that Siddhu had stolen an equal amount of money. Later, Siddhu, while joking around with friends, gets angry when one of his friends suggests that the lawyer may be receiving sexual favours from Siddhu in exchange for defending him in court.
A few days later, Raunak Singh hires Siddhu to deliver a letter to a local cricket player, and to beat up the player if he shows signs of resisting. Unknown to Siddhu, the letter contains instructions to the player to get out after scoring a certain number of runs, so that Ronnie can win a bet. Siddhu delivers the letter and intimidates the cricket player into agreeing to follow the instructions, breaking the player's bat in the process. Later, while returning, he gets into a motorcycle speed race with a motorcycle gang led by Charlie (Deepak Tijori), which escalates into a dare game to run towards a moving train at night. Siddhu beats Charlie's past record in the game. Charlie chooses to run again, but falls on the train tracks, and seems to be headed for death as the train approaches him. Siddhu rescues Charlie at considerable personal risk. In the process, Siddhu becomes friends with Alisha Mafatlal (Rani Mukerji), also part of the gang, and their friendship blossoms into love. The famous song Aati Kya Khandala is situated during this period, when Siddhu is trying to cheer Alisha up after a fight with her father.
It is revealed that Siddhu saw his own father's death when he was a child which mentally affected him throughout his life. His father's words – "anybody can swim with the tide, but the truly brave person is he who swims against the tide"—remained with him, though he had only been with his father for a little while.
Back in his local community, Siddhu witnesses an incident of some of Ronnie's men beating up a local restaurateur for not paying extortion money to Ronnie's gang. The restaurateur runs for his life as Ronnie's men chase him, but none of the other community people come to his aid. Harihar Mafatlal (Akshay Anand), a social worker, coaxes a police constable to stop the fight. The restaurateur and his two assailants land up on the roof where Siddhu is doing boxing practice, with Hari and the constable following. The constable breaks up the fight and scolds the restaurateur, and Hari is angry at the constable for blaming the victim. The assailants leave, greeting Siddhu on the way out. Siddhu offers some water to the restaurateur and introduces himself to Hari, suggesting to both to avoid getting on the wrong side of Ronnie. Hari speaks of principle and self-respect, and Siddhu is reminded of things that his father told him long ago.
Ronnie is furious to hear about this, and wishes to kill the restaurateur and Hari immediately. Ronnie explains the logic of terror to his henchmen: if even a few people stop acceding to his demands, then that will instill rebelliousness against Ronnie's demands in others. Fear is essential for the kind of respect Ronnie enjoys, and being lenient against a few people who stand up to him based on a short-term cost–benefit analysis will have long-term negative consequences for Ronnie. Jai, however, dissuades Ronnie from taking rash action. In the process, it is revealed that Jai and Ronnie are in the process of bribing politicians and government officials to make Ronnie the owner of a large construction project.
Hari later canvasses some villagers together, trying to get one of them to sign a complaint against Ronnie that can be filed with the police so that official action can be taken against him. Siddhu attends the meeting at Jai's request, but does not inform Jai or Ronnie about it immediately. Instead, Siddhu offers Hari a friendly warning to cease and desist these activities. During the conversation that ensues, Siddhu says that his own motto in life is simple: live and let live. Hari reveals the principle guiding his own actions: whenever he sees himself in the mirror, he should not feel ashamed of what he sees.
Ronnie nonetheless comes to know of the events during the meeting, and is angry. He tells Siddhu to arrange a meeting between Hari and himself (Ronnie) so that Ronnie can dissuade Hari from these activities. Siddhu agrees, and calls Hari over to a bridge, on the pretext that he himself (Siddhu) needs to talk to Hari. Hari arrives at the bridge, expecting to meet Siddhu. Ronnie arrives along with his men, beats up Hari, and throws him from the bridge after which he is crushed under a moving train. Siddhu is furious at Jai and Ronnie, and attacks Ronnie physically, but Ronnie's men control him, and he is allowed to go on account of the fact that he is Jai's brother and he was the one who managed to inadvertently help Ronnie kill Hari. Siddhu, returning home, cannot bear the sight of himself in the mirror, and breaks it. It is also revealed that Hari was the brother of Alisha (Siddhu's romantic interest), something Siddhu had been unaware of because he was living separately. Siddhu confesses everything to Fatima Madam, the female lawyer who had defended him in the beginning of the movie, but refuses to testify against Ronnie in court, for fear of implicating his elder brother Jai. The lawyer tries to talk him into testifying, but fails. She challenges him to reveal the truth to Alisha, which he does, and they break up.
In a subsequent boxing match (against boxing champion "Kala Tiger"), that Siddhu has been preparing for several months, Siddhu is told by his brother, in the midst of the game, to throw away the match, since Ronnie has bet money on Siddhu losing. Siddhu throws away the game, allowing the other boxer to beat him unconscious. He is furious at his brother, and they have an oral confrontation. In the process, Siddhu is forced to confront that his father had betrayed five of his friends in the Indian independence movement to the British out of fear of being tortured, causing all of them to be killed. Siddhu realises that his father was a good man, but, like everybody else, was a coward and lacked the strength to fight injustice. Yet, he knows that his father wanted to instill these values in him, and he vows to bring Hari's killers to justice and complete the task that Hari attempted to begin. He tells Fatime Madam (the lawyer) that he is willing to testify publicly against Ronnie as well as against his own brother Jai, and also confesses to her his theft of Rs. 400 (shown at the beginning of the movie). She expresses pride in Siddhu, revealing that she knew all along about the theft and also knew that Siddhu would reveal it to her some day of his own accord. She tries to get Alisha to forgive Siddhu, but fails. Siddhu, now a reformed man, meets up with the cricketer he had beaten up a while back, presents him with a new cricket bat, and seeks forgiveness.
When Ronnie discovers that Siddhu is the person who has filed a complaint against him, he is ready to kill Siddhu. Jai dissuades Ronnie, reassuring him that Jai himself will dissuade Siddhu from testifying publicly against Ronnie. In an emotional scene, Siddhu, when approached by Jai, confronts Jai instead, accusing Jai of neglecting his duties as an elder brother by encouraging Siddhu to follow himself in a life of crime. Jai realises his error and apologises. Upon returning home, Siddhu discovers Alisha waiting for him, and they embrace and reconcile. Later that night, Ronnie kills Jai and his men also try to kill Siddhu, but the motorcycle gang led by Charlie (whose life Siddhu had saved earlier) intervenes to save Siddhu's life. Siddhu wants to kill Ronnie in person to avenge his brother's death, but the female lawyer arrives in time to dissuade him.
The next day, in court, Siddhu gives his testimony regarding Ronnie's murder of Hari. The court is adjourned until Monday. Coming out of court, Ronnie orders for a local bandhand forces all the shops to close down. He also has Siddhu's home broken into and his belongings thrown on the street. Siddhu, upon seeing this, walks up to Ronnie's house and challenges him to come out and duel alone, rather than hiding behind henchmen. Ronnie agrees, and all the people in the area come out to watch. The two boxers have a long and bloody boxing match, with nobody interfering. As the local people see one man with the courage to fight Raunak Singh, they awaken to the possibility that they too can resist his extortionary demands. Ronnie loses the fight, but he then orders his henchmen to kill Siddhu. The local people, who are much more numerous than Ronnie's henchmen, block the attempt. Together, they beat up Ronnie and his henchmen and force them to flee the area.

Trivia
StuntsA sequence in the film shows running on rail tracks towards an oncoming train, which misses him by a few feet as he jumps off the tracks. 1.3 seconds was the only difference between Aamir and the train. This stunt was actually performed, and by Aamir himself. It won the Best Scene Award at the 44th Filmfare Awards, but he later criticised himself for taking such an unnecessary risk
Rani Mukerji's voice was dubbed by Mona Shetty, who had a much more high-pitched voice. When asked if the director's decision to not use her voice in the film affected her, she said that her voice was dubbed as it "did not suit the character".
RemakeIt was remade in Tamil as Sudhandhiram (2000).

Arms trade is taking place in India. An arsenal enters Indian territory via the state of Rajasthan, which makes its way to interior of India with help of many middlemen. Bala Thakur, a gun handler in Chandrapur, provides the arms to Veeran, a forest dwelling brigand. Later, Veeran and his gang attack a wedding bus, mercilessly gunning down every person in it which includes women and children. The government appoints a Special Action Team in Mumbai to trace the roots behind the attack. The team learns about Bala Thakur, but thanks to his informants, Thakur flees before he can be apprehended.
Meanwhile, ACP Ajay Singh Rathod, a resident of Mumbai, is attending a concert by the famed ghazal singer Gulfam Hassan (aMuhajir), where he spots a familiar face, Seema. Ajay had a crush over Seema when they were studying in Delhi, but never got the courage to propose her. The duo are happy to meet each other again and gradually fall in love. Gulfam, on the other hand, is Indian by birth, but had to move to Pakistan as a child during partition. Deeply scarred due to the experience, he is still happy that the Government allows him to live in his palatial residence whenever he comes to India. Gulfam finds a huge fan in Ajay, who used to attend his programs as a child. Despite the age difference, the two bond.
Inspector Salim a Muslim inspector is taken off from the Special Action Team when a notorious gangster Sultan escapes his clutches and he is severely reprimanded his superior for this failure and for cuing the death of two other officers in the attempt. Despite being an honest and upright police officer with the best intelligence gathering network in the force, Salim is rueful that he is being given second class treatment because he is a Muslim and is being perceived as having let Sultan escape because he was a Muslim as well. His anger at the system doesn't lessen when Ajay, who was his junior, is told to head the team. Ajay wants Salim on the team, but Salim refuses. It is revealed that Ajay's father was going to testify against some terrorist who had threatened him not to testify, but in an attempt to stop them from doing so, Ajay's elder brother was killed. Ajay's father was kidnapped and by the time the terrorists spared him, the man had lost his voice. This motivated Ajay to join the police force.
Unknown to Ajay, Gulfam is also working for the Pakistani intelligence which is attempting to create havoc in India and create a proxy war between both sides. Since Gulfam likes Ajay, he sees to it that nothing untoward happens to him. Here, Salim finds the location of Bala Thakur along with the information that Sultan, the man who escaped from his clutches, will also be there. Salim gives the information to Ajay who makes peace with Salim and convinces him to join the team again. An encounter at the criminals' rendezvous results in the death of Bala Thakur and Ajay is seriously injured. Though Sultan and his right-hand man Shiva manage to escape, the operation is deemed a success as the team is able to intercept a large consignment of lethal arms and ammunition meant for terrorist Veeran and his terrorist acts around the country. Sultan is later assassinated on Gulfams orders because of his failure and false information is leaked that he has escaped to Pakistan.
While recuperating, Ajay has an epiphany which leads the team to Bahid in Rajasthan and to "Mirchi Seth" Rambandhu Gupt. The investigative team save for Ajay and Salim camp in Bahid and gather all possible information on Mirchi Seth. Ajay comes over to Bahid to investigate and meets Gulfam who is temporarily staying in his ancestral manor near Bahid. Gulfam attempts to derail the investigation through political means and ordering an assault on Ajay to subvert the investigation, but of no avail. The repeated failures on Gulfam's part displease the senior officers in Pakistani Intelligence, who dispatch Major Aslam Baig to take care of the business.
Here, Ajay goes through the information collected so far and realises that he has seen many key suspects near Gulfam, but fails to make the connection. The investigative teams prepares for a final assault on the gun-running operation and in the pursuit of Mirchi Seth land up at Gulfam's mansion. Ajay feels betrayed when he learns of Gulfam's treachery, but is aware of lack of substantial evidence to indict Gulfam for his crimes. He goads and tricks Gulfam into killing Baig and arrests him for the offence. After realising what happened, Gulfam reveals how the incidents that happened during the partition embittered him and why he did those deeds.
In retaliation, Ajay makes him realise that his actions are not benefiting people of any religion. After Ajay makes him see the error in his ways, Gulfam, unable to stand the humiliation and guilt, commits suicide. Gulfam's suicide is hushed up and the team returns triumphant to Mumbai to much accolades for busting the terrorist racket. At Mumbai Airport, Salim is tipped on the whereabouts of Veeran and Ajay embarks on another investigation with his team.

Synopsis
Dev Karan Singh (Aamir Khan), a casanova and ambitious painter deep in debt, agrees to marry Anita (Deepti Bhatnagar), the daughter of Singhania (Dalip Tahil), a rich tycoon. Priya (Manisha Koirala), a music teacher for children, is engaged to Raj (Anil Kapoor), whom she has agreed to marry because he had helped her when she was in need. Priya and Dev meet on a cruise and fall in love. However, due to their already being engaged to other people, they agree to work everything out and meet in 6 months on Valentine's Day to get married.
During the 6 months, Dev breaks off his engagement with Anita and starts working hard. Driven by his love, he creates and auctions beautiful paintings, and becomes very successful. On the other hand, Priya realizes that leaving Raj will be wrong and sadly writes a letter to Dev, explaining everything. When Raj gets the letter instead, he supports Priya and convinces her to go to Dev. Things take a bad turn when, on her way to meet him, Priya gets hit by a car and gets her legs amputated. Dev, who waited all night for Priya, believes she has rejected him, as he does not know of her accident. Priya forbids Raj from telling Dev, not wanting to become a burden on him. However, both Dev and Priya still love and pine for each other.
Though heartbroken, Dev continues his career and goes on to become a famous painter. One day, Priya attends his art exhibition and wishes to buy a painting of his, a sentimental picture of her speaking to his beloved grandmother, whom Dev had introduced to her during the cruise. Dev had said that he would not sell the painting as it was only for Priya, but upon hearing that the girl who wanted it understands the emotion behind the picture and is disabled, he tells the host of the exhibition to give the painting to her for free.
One day, he visits Priya to give her an anklet that his grandmother, who recently died, had wished for Priya to have when she became Dev's bride. Initially unaware of Priya's condition, Dev realizes the truth when he sees the painting in another room. The two embrace tearfully and he assures Priya that he will love her no matter what. Dev and Priya then get married and live happily ever after.

Aamir Khan, who was also the producer, stars with Gracy Singh in the lead roles; British actors Rachel Shelley and Paul Blackthorne play the supporting roles.

The film is set in the Victorian period of India's colonial British Raj. The story revolves around a small village whose inhabitants, oppressed by high taxes, find themselves in an extraordinary situation as an arrogant officer challenges them to a game of cricketas a wager to avoid the taxes. The narrative spins around this situation as the villagers face the arduous task of learning the alien game and playing for a result that will change their village's destiny.
Lagaan received critical acclaim and awards at international film festivals, as well as many Indian film awards. It became the thirdIndian film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film after Mother India (1957) and Salaam Bombay!(1988).

Synopsis
In the small village of Champaner, (in the State of Gujarat, in western India) during the height of the British Empire in India in 1893, Captain Andrew Russell (Paul Blackthorne), the commanding officer of the Champaner cantonment, has imposed high taxes ("lagaan") on people from the local villages which they are unable to pay due to a prolonged drought. Led by Bhuvan (Aamir Khan), the villagers beg Raja Puran Singh (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) to help them. He tells them that much to his regret, he is also bound by British law.
It is after their visit to the Raja that the people of the village first witness a cricket match. Bhuvan mocks the game and gets into a fight with one of the British officers. Taking an instant dislike to Bhuvan, Russell offers to cancel the taxes of the whole province for three years if the villagers can beat his men in a game of cricket. If the villagers lose, however, they will have to pay three times the amount of their normal taxes. Bhuvan accepts this wager on behalf of all the villages in the province, without their consent. When the other villagers find out about the bet, they are furious with Bhuvan. He argues that it is important for everyone to fight against British rule.
Bhuvan thus begins to prepare the villagers for the match. He initially finds only five people willing to join the team. He is aided in his efforts by Russell's sister Elizabeth (Rachel Shelley) who feels that her brother has mistreated the people in the villages. As she teaches them the rules of the game, she falls in love with Bhuvan, much to the anguish of Gauri (Gracy Singh) who is also in love with him. After Bhuvan reassures Gauri of his feelings for her, the woodcutter Lakha (Yashpal Sharma) becomes enraged as he is also in love with Gauri. In an attempt to discredit Bhuvan, Lakha offers himself as a spy for Russell and joins the villagers' team to destroy it. Eventually, as the villagers realise that winning equals freedom, and as a few of them are insulted by the British, they soon join the team. Still short one player, Bhuvan invites an untouchable, Kachra (Aditya Lakhia), who can bowl spinners. The villagers, conditioned by long term prejudice against untouchables, refuse to play if Kachra joins the team. Bhuvan chastises the villagers, shaming them into accepting Kachra.
The second half of the film focuses on the match itself. On the first day, Russell wins the toss and elects to bat, giving the British officers a strong start. Bhuvan brings Kachra into the match only to find that Kachra has somehow lost his ability to spin the ball, because new cricket balls do not spin as well as worn-down ones (such as those the team have been practising with). In addition, as part of his agreement with Russell, Lakha deliberately drops many catches. During the evening, however, Elizabeth sees Lakha meeting with her brother. She races to the village and informs Bhuvan of Lakha's deception. Rather than allow the villagers to kill him, Bhuvan offers Lakha the chance to redeem himself.
The next day as part of his promise to Bhuvan, Lakha takes a diving one-handed catch. However, the British score almost 300 runs, losing only three wickets by the lunch break. Kachra is brought back to bowl and, bowling with a now-worn ball, takes a hat-trick, which sparks the collapse of the British batting side. The villagers soon start their innings. Bhuvan and Deva (a Sikh, who has played cricket earlier when he was a British sepoy) give their team a solid start. Deva misses out on his half-century when a straight-drive from Bhuvan ricochets off the bowler's hand onto the stumps at the non-striker's end, where Deva is backing up too far. When Lakha comes on to bat, he is hit on the head by a bouncer, and falls onto his stumps. Other batsmen get out trying to score a boundary off each delivery. Ismail (Raj Zutshi), a good batsman, retires hurt as he is hit on the leg. The villagers' team ends the day with four batsmen out of action with barely a third of the required runs on board.
On the third and final day, Bhuvan passes his century, while most of the later wickets fall. Ismail returns to bat with the help of a runner and passes his half-century, reducing the required runs to an attainable total. The game comes down to the last over with Kachra on strike. With one ball remaining and the team down 5 runs, Kachra knocks the ball a short distance, managing only a single. However, the umpire signals no ball and Bhuvan returns to bat, and swings extremely hard at the next ball. Captain Russell backpedals and catches the ball, gleefully believing that the British team has won, until he realises that he had actually caught the ball beyond the boundary which gives 6 runs, and the win, to Bhuvan's team. Even as they celebrate the victory, the drought ends as a rainstorm erupts.
Bhuvan's defeat of the British team leads to the disbanding of the humiliated cantonment. In addition, Russell is forced to pay the taxes for the whole province and is transferred to Central Africa. After realising that Bhuvan loves Gauri, Elizabeth returns to London. Heartbroken, she remains unmarried for the rest of her life. The narrator (Amitabh Bachchan) says that Bhuvan went on to marry Gauri with great pomp and show, but concludes by saying that despite the historic triumph, Bhuvan's name became lost in the pages of history.

In 2001, the film won National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Hindi. It performed better in the urban areas of the country compared to the rural areas, which was attributed by critics to the city-oriented lifestyle depicted in which all the characters are from rich or upper-middle-class families.

Synopsis
This movie is about three childhood friends, Akash Malhotra (Aamir Khan), Sameer Mulchandani (Saif Ali Khan), and Siddharth "Sid" Sinha (Akshaye Khanna) who, after college, fall in love. In the beginning, Akash does not believe in the concept of love and does not engage in relationships lasting more than two weeks. Sameer is a genial, well-meaning, desperately romantic, but confused guy who is prone to romantic infatuations and believes to have found true love whenever he gets attracted to a girl. Sid, an artist by profession and the most mature of the three, is not interested in trivial romances and is dedicated to his work.
Akash, who is a cad in his personal life, resists the affections of a girl Deepa (Samantha Tremayne) from his college. At the college graduation party, he leads the song Hum Hain Naye and then proposes to a girl named Shalini (Preity Zinta) in jest, without being aware that she is engaged to Rohit, who is also at the party. Akash engineers a breakup between Sameer and his then girlfriend Priya (Suchitra Pillai). He then plans a vacation trip to the beaches of Goa with Sid and Sameer. Deepa runs into Akash again there, but he resists her advances, and Sid counsels her to forget Akash and move on.
Sameer predictably "falls in love" in Goa with a pretty Swiss girl, a story that ends in disaster. She ties him up and, with an accomplice, takes all of his money, his passport and the rest of his luggage. He hitches a ride with a kind lorry driver and returns home to find that his parents have arranged a meeting with a potential marriage prospect. He resists at first as he does not want an arranged marriage, but the moment he sees the girl, Pooja (Sonali Kulkarni), he realizes that she is 'the one'. Unfortunately, she is in a relationship and Sam has to be content with just being her friend.
Sid, in the meantime, befriends and eventually falls in love with Tara Jaiswal (Dimple Kapadia), an older divorcee and alcoholic, who had moved into a nearby house and shares his love for art. He decides to keep it from her, suppressing all hopes of a relationship as he knows that she, like most other people in society, would consider this scandalous. When his family and friends start finding out, everything goes wrong. Sid's mother is horrified and wrongly accuses Tara of having led Sid on. Akash makes fun of Sid's true intentions and his offensive remarks create a rift in their friendship. Tara hears that Sid has quarreled with friends and family because of her and feeling that she has ruined his life, refuses to see him. He goes on a vacation to his uncle's place to take some time off and get some painting done with some real peace and quiet.
By the time Sid comes back home, Akash is sent to Sydney, Australia by his parents to manage the family business. They hoped for him to get some sense of direction in life there, which surprisingly enough he does.
Meanwhile, Pooja had started to realize that even though sweet, her boyfriend was an utterly unexciting routine character. Sameer and Pooja start going out after she breaks up with her boyfriend, and Sam plans on proposing marriage soon.
Akash, on the other hand, is also soon to experience romantic upheaval. When his parents send him to Sydney, Australia to work for the family business, on the flight, he is coincidentally seated next to Shalini. He apologises for his earlier 'prank' and asks her to show him around the new city. Even though Shalini is engaged to Rohit, she finds herself agreeing. Soon she discovers Akash is very pleasant company to be around and they both, eventually, start to feel a certain 'something'. She tries to find out how he feels, but he holds back. She then leaves for India to marry Rohit, her fiancé. Akash tries to let her go, but then realises that he is unable to. He gets depressed and starts getting painful nostalgic memories of his two friends along with that. His father senses something amiss in his tone over the phone and asks him to return to India. And after getting to know of his situation, his father advises him to let her know his true feelings and see how she feels about it. He proposes to her on the eve of her wedding, at the wedding party, and she accepts with the blessings of Rohit's parents who raised her too from childhood, after a bit of an embarrassment. Rohit tries to resist but is helpless with his parents' decision and Shalini's longing for Akash.
Tara is hospitalized with liver cirrhosis and dies with Sid at her bedside. Sid and Akash reconcile (with a little help from Sameer) in one of the most touching scenes of the feature. Six months later the three friends go to Goa to rekindle fond memories along with Shalini and Pooja. There, Sid meets an unknown girl (Mandala Tayde), who is also vacationing in Goa with her two friends. They share a smile, implying that Sid is moving on from Tara.
During the credits of the film, all six are sitting at a table: Akash with Shalini, Sameer with Pooja, and Sid with his new wife.

Initially, director Farhan Akhtar had approached A. R. Rahman for composing the music. But since Rahman was busy with other engagements, he did not accept the offer. Later Rahman commented that he was glad that the project went to Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and he personally loved their work in the film.
The album has a universal sound, unlike other Bollywood soundtracks of the time. The trio had various influences, including Irish and ethno. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy along withFarhan Akhtar, Javed Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani went to Khandala to finalize the songs, which took a mere three and a half days. When they came back, they booked a studio and completed the recording in three weeks. They also used the Australian instrument Didgeridoo, a wind instrument developed by Indigenous Australians of northern Australia at least 1,500 years ago for the song "Jaane Kyon". They've also used various other traditional instruments like Dholak, Kanjira, Tabla and Flute.

Synopsis
The film begins in 1857, when a large part of India was under the control of the British East India Company. Mangal Pandey (Aamir Khan) is a sepoy, a soldier of Indian origin, in the army of the East India Company. Pandey is fighting in the Anglo-Afghan Wars and saves the life of his British commanding officer, William Gordon (portrayed by Toby Stephens). Gordon is indebted to Pandey and a strong friendship develops between them, transcending both rank and race.
Gordon rescues a young widow, Jwala (Ameesha Patel), from committing Sati (the act of following her deceased husband on to the funeral pyre). Afterwards, he falls in love with her. Meanwhile, Heera (Rani Mukerji) has been sold into finance, to work for Lol Bibi (Kirron Kher). There is a spark of attraction between her and Pandey and a liaison follows.
Gordon and Pandey's friendship is challenged following the introduction of a new rifle, the Enfield rifled musket. In reality as in the film, rumours began to spread among the sepoys that the paper cartridges that held the powder and ball for the rifle were greased with either pig fat or beef tallow. Since the process of loading the cartridge required the soldier to bite the cartridge open to pour in the loose powder, the soldiers believed that the process would require them to consume pork or beef – an act abhorrent to Muslim and Hindu soldiers, respectively, for religious reasons.
In the film, Gordon investigates, and is told to assure Pandey that the cartridges are free from pollution. Demonstrating his total trust in Gordon, Mangal bites the cartridge. But Pandey soon discovers that the cartridges really are greased by animal fat. The rumour of this imposed pollution is the spark that ignites the powder keg of resentment in the country. Mutiny breaks out, led by Pandey. At one point Pandey and Gordon become involved in direct hand-to-hand combat as the latter tries to dissuade the sepoy from what he believes to be a futile exercise that will lead to only death. However, the Company was prepared and brought in British army units from Rangoon and Pandey was captured and executed, despite the protestations of Gordon, who reasons that Pandey will be revered as a martyr and that his legacy will cause more uprising. This turns out to be correct; Mangal marries Heera in his jail cell before his execution as the film closes to scenes of nationwide revolt against British rule. Gordon is listed as having joined the rebellion against the Company Raj.
The film ends with a montage of drawings of the historical rebellion and the narrator describes the progress of the Indian independence movement over the next century. The montage ends with documentary footage of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi leading the Indian National Congress during peaceful protests against British rule in the 1940s, eventually forcing an end to colonialism in the subcontinent.

The music of the movie was scored by A. R. Rahman with lyrics penned by Javed Akhtar.

Synopsis
A young, struggling British filmmaker Sue McKinley (Alice Patten) comes across the diary of her grandfather, Mr. McKinley (Steven Mackintosh), who served as a jailer in the Imperial Police during the Indian independence movement. Through the diary, she learns about the story of five freedom fighters who were active in the movement: Chandrasekhar Azad, Bhagat Singh, Shivaram Rajguru,Ashfaqulla Khan, and Ram Prasad Bismil. McKinley, in his diary, states that he had met two type of people in his life: the first one... who died without uttering a sound and the second kind ... who died with lots of anguish.. crying over their deaths... McKinley reveals that it was then that he met with the third kind....
Having decided to make a self-financed documentary film about these revolutionaries, Sue travels to India, with the help of her friend, Sonia (Soha Ali Khan), from the Institute for International Studies at the University of Delhi. After a few unsuccessful auditions in search of the actors, Sue finally casts Sonia's friends, four young men – Daljit "DJ" (Aamir Khan), Karan Singhania (Siddharth Narayan), Aslam Khan (Kunal Kapoor) and Sukhi Ram (Sharman Joshi) — to portray the revolutionaries.
Though they aren't very enthusiastic at the idea of acting in a film about the independence movement, Sue eventually manages to convince them. Laxman Pandey (Atul Kulkarni), a political party activist, joins the cast later, despite initially being unpopular due to his anti-Western ideology, due to which he is often at odds with the other four, and anti-Muslim beliefs and contempt for Aslam Khan. In the process of filming, the idealism of India's revolutionary heroes seeps into the protagonists. They gradually begin to realize that their own lives are quite similar to the characters they portray in Sue's film and that the state of affairs that once plagued the revolutionaries continues to torment their generation.
Meanwhile, Ajay Singh Rathod (R. Madhavan), a flight lieutenant in the Indian Air Force who is Sonia's fiancé, is killed when his jet, a MiG-21, crashes. The government proclaims that the crash was caused by pilot error and closes the investigation. Knowing that Rathod was an ace pilot, Sonia and her friends do not accept the official explanation. Instead, they claim that he sacrificed his life to save hundreds of other lives that would have been lost had he ejected from the aircraft and left it to crash into a populous city. They investigate and learn that the crash was due to a corrupt defence minister (Mohan Agashe), who had signed a contract exchanging cheap and illegal MiG-21 aircraft spare parts for a personal favour. To their surprise, they learn that the key person who was responsible for organizing the deal was Karan's father, Rajnath Singhania (Anupam Kher).
Angered by the situation, the group and their supporters decide to protest peacefully at India Gate, a war memorial in New Delhi. Police forcefully break up their protest using batons; in the process, Rathod's mother (Waheeda Rehman) is severely hurt and she slips into a coma. DJ, Karan, Aslam, Sukhi, and Laxman decide that they must emulate the early freedom fighters and resort to violence to achieve justice. As a result, they kill the defence minister to avenge Rathod's death, while Karan murders his father for his corrupt actions. The minister is reported to have been killed by terrorists and is hailed as a martyr by the media. To bring forth their intentions behind the killings, the five of them attempt to reach the public through a radio station. They forcibly take over the All India Radio station premises after having evacuated its employees. Karan goes on air and reveals the truth about the defence minister and his wrongdoings. While still on the air, the police proclaim that they are dangerous terrorists who have forcefully taken over the AIR, and therefore they are to be shot on sight. The first to be shot is Daljit, who tries to get out of cover and establish that they are not terrorists. Sukhi, unable to control his anger at this gets out and is instantly shot to death. He dies with the last smile still etched on his face. As they are trying to lock the terrace doors, Aslam and Pandey are then killed due to agrenade explosion and the once archenemies die holding hands and smiling, as they have visions of Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqullah.
Daljit manages to crawl to the Recording Room, where Karan is still on air. When Karan understands that he has been shot, they speak amongst themselves for the last time, regarding the others, about Sue and about Daljit's love for her. It is there that they are shot to death, but not without the sound of their hearty laughter still hanging in the air like an echo of long dead music. It is then revealed that McKinley described the third kind of people he came across as being the ones who embraced death as a friend and an equal, with a heartfelt laughter. After their death, the public reacts with outrage and expresses urge to bring Indian Politics to justice, following the motives of all the boys.
The film comes to an end with Sue describing the impact of the boys on her life. As she and Sonia watch from the rooftop that Ajay proposed to her on, they have a vision of the boys running in the fields, singing happily and victoriously throwing their shirts in the air, acting as if they are celebrating life itself, as if the ebb of their once-there vitality still reverberates in the places where they once used to go, and a wave of melancholy comes over the two surviving women.
In an afterlife-like state, the boys watch as a father tells his son (a young Bhagat Singh) about gardening. They watch over him with smiling faces, then depart as friends for eternity.
Soundtrack

The soundtrack of Rang De Basanti, which was released by Sony BMG, featured music composed by A. R. Rahman and lyrics penned by Prasoon Joshi and Blaaze, an India-based rapper. From the film's announcement in April 2005, Rahman was slated to compose the music. In a press conference with pop singer Nelly Furtado, he said that she was to originally have featured on the soundtrack, although this was ultimately prevented from happening due to a change in producers and other factors. Aamir Khan, with his knowledge of Hindi and Urdu, worked with Rahman and Joshi for the soundtrack. In addition, Mehra and Rahman chose him to sing for one of the songs.

The film stars Aamir Khan in an anti-hero role, Kajol as his blind love interest, and Rishi Kapoor, Tabu and Sharat Saxena in supporting roles.
Aamir Khan plays the role of Delhi tourist guide Rehan Qadri and Kajol plays a blind Kashmiri girl Zooni Ali Beg. Both fall in love, but are separated by a terrorist bombing that reportedly kills Rehan. It is later revealed that Rehan was not killed, but is in fact a Kashmiri insurgent responsible for the bombing. Seven years later, his insurgency organization IKF sends him on a mission in Kashmir, where he once again encounters Zooni.
Fanaa was made on a budget of ₹500 million (US$7.5 million) and was one of the most expensive Bollywood films during its time of release. The film's title is derived from the Islamic Sufi term "fanaa", meaning "destroyed" in Arabic, Persian, Urdu and Hindi. It was the first film to showcase Khan and Kajol in a romantic pairing (the two had previously worked together in 1997's Ishq). The film also marked the comeback of Kajol, who was last seen in Karan Johar's Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001), and it was the first time Aamir Khan worked under the Yash Raj production banner.
It was released in India on 26 May 2006. The film was a critical and commercial success, with many critics opining that the film worked largely due to the performances and chemistry of the leads. However, it was banned in the state of Gujarat due to protests against the lead actor Aamir Khan for his comments criticizing the Gujarati government.

Synopsis
Zooni Ali Beg (Kajol) is a blind Kashmiri girl who travels without her parents for the first time with a dance to Delhi to perform in a ceremony for Republic Day. On her journey, she meets Rehan Qadri (Aamir Khan), a Casanova tour guide who flirts with her. Although her friends warn Zooni about him, she cannot resist falling in love. On her last night in Delhi, Rehan and Zooni spend the night together and end up in bed. As Zooni is leaving the next day on a train, Rehan comes in and takes her away with him. Her parents arrive in Delhi to marry them. Zooni has a procedure done that helps her see again, but when she comes out of surgery, she finds out that Rehan was killed in a bomb blast in the city, and is heartbroken. She is taken to the hospital mortuary, and told to identify his body. As Zooni cannot see any body there, she is quickly made aware of the sweater that Rehan was wearing which she knitted for him covered in blood and soot.
Meanwhile, Malini Tyagi (Tabu) is a special intelligence agent brought in to assess the threat of the bomb blast and the group responsible, an independent organization fighting for an independent Kashmir known as IKF. She believes it is the work of one man who is helping IKF. It is revealed that the man is Rehan, who placed the bomb blast in motion, then faked his death so Zooni wouldn't come looking for him. He privately admits that he loves Zooni, but also concedes that he can never see her again because of his dangerous life.
Seven years later, Rehan is in an Indian army camp on another mission for the IKF. IKF has acquired a nuclear weapon but needs to get hold of the trigger, which is in the army's possession. Rehan manages to steal it, but Tyagi has figured out his plan and sends forces to stop him. In the ensuing shootout, Rehan is injured severely. He makes his way to a remote house looking for help. The door opens, and it turns out to be Zooni's house. It's also revealed that Zooni had given birth to Rehan's son after Rehan's supposed death. Zooni and her father manage to save Rehan, though neither knows his real identity. Though initially distant from them, Rehan develops an affection for his son and becomes friendly towards Zooni and her father.
Rehan eventually reveals his true identity to them. Initially hurt, Zooni refuses to let Rehan leave her again, and the two of them are married by her father. Tyagi has a report published about Rehan, warning the public that he is a dangerous terrorist. Zooni's father sees this report, and realizes that it's Rehan. He holds him at gunpoint, but Rehan thwarts him and manages to get the trigger back. In the process, though, he accidentally throws Zooni's father off a ledge, killing him. He radios the IKF from an army officer's house describing his position. However, the officer discovers Rehan, who then kills the officer.
Zooni finds her father's body later, and when she tries to tell Rehan, he covers. However, Zooni later sees the news report, and finds the trigger. She takes her son and the trigger, and goes to the officer's house. When she finds blood there, she radios for help, and gets in touch with Tyagi, who tells her to stop Rehan at any cost. Rehan arrives at the house the next day, and tries to convince Zooni to hand over the trigger. He takes it from her, saying the IKF will kill her and their son if he doesn't. Zooni, though, follows him outside when the IKF arrives and shoots him. Rehan draws his gun on Zooni, but can't bring himself to shoot her. Zooni shoots him again to stop him. Tyagi arrives and stops the IKF from shooting Zooni. Rehan dies in Zooni's arms.
Zooni and her son later visit the graves of both her father and Rehan, who are buried next to each other. When the son asks if his father was wrong, Zooni tells him that his father did what he thought was right. Both tell Rehan that they love him before leaving.
Soundtrack

The music of Fanaa was composed by Jatin-Lalit with lyrics penned by Prasoon Joshi. Five songs are featured in the movie while the soundtrack contains seven songs. This was the last movie for which Jatin-Lalit composed as a duo (they split afterwards).
Gaurav Sathe of Planet Bollywood gave 8 stars stating, "Jatin-Lalit's last offering doesn't give us a Dilwale Dulania Le Jayenge or a K3G, but it is still a notch higher than some of the run-off-the-mill music we've been hearing as of late.
Aamir Khan and Kajol recite lines of poetry in "Chanda Chamke" and "Mere Haath Mein".

Creative Director and writer Amole Gupte initially developed the idea with his wife Deepa Bhatia, who served as the film's editor. Visual effects are by Tata Elxsi's Visual Computing Labs, and the title animation—the first use of claymation in a Bollywood film—was created by Dhimant Vyas. Shankar–Ehsaan–Loycomposed the film's score, and Prasoon Joshi wrote the lyrics for many of the songs. Principal photography took place in Mumbaiand in Panchgani's New Era High School, and some of the school's students make appearances.
The film explores the life and imagination of Ishaan, an eight-year-old dyslexic child. Although he excels in art, his poor academic performance leads his parents to send him to a boarding school. Ishaan's new art teacher suspects that he is dyslexic and helps him to overcome his disability. The film made its theatrical debut in India on 21 December 2007, and UTV Home Entertainmentreleased a DVD for Indian audiences in 2008. Disney's later release of the international edition DVD marked the first purchase of distribution rights for an Indian film by a global company.
Taare Zameen Par has received numerous awards, including the Filmfare Best Film Award for 2008 and the 2008 National Film Award for Best Film on Family Welfare. It was India's official entry for the 2009 Academy Awards Best Foreign Film, but did not progress to the short-list.

Synopsis
Ishaan Nandkishore Awasthi (Darsheel Safary) is an eight-year-old boy who dislikes school and fails every test or exam. He finds all subjects difficult, and is belittled and berated by his teachers and classmates. But Ishaan's internal world is rich with wonders that he is unable to convey to others, magical lands filled with colour and animated animals. He is an artist whose talent is unrecognised.
Ishaan's father, Nandkishore Awasthi (Vipin Sharma), is a successful executive who expects his children to excel. His mother, housewife Maya Awasthi (Tisca Chopra), is frustrated by her inability to educate her son. Ishaan's elder brother, Yohaan (Sachet Engineer), is an exemplary scholar and athlete, which Ishaan is frequently reminded of.
After receiving a particularly poor academic report, Ishaan's parents send him to a boarding school. There he sinks into a state of fear and depression, despite being befriended by Rajan (Tanay Chheda), physically disabled and one of the top students in his class.
Ishaan's situation changes when a new art teacher, Ram Shankar Nikumbh (Aamir Khan), joins the school's faculty. An instructor at the Tulips School for young children withdevelopmental disabilities, Nikumbh's teaching style is markedly different from that of his strict predecessor, and he quickly observes that Ishaan is unhappy and contributes little to class activities. He reviews Ishaan's work and concludes that his academic shortcomings are indicative of dyslexia.
On his day off, Nikumbh sets off to Mumbai, to visit Ishaan's parents. Nikumbh is surprised to learn that Ishaan is passionate about painting, and shows great talent in art. Nikumbh then asks Mr Awasthi as to why he sent Ishaan to a boarding school. Mr Awasthi replies that Ishaan was an ill mannered boy and was a poor student. Nikumbh shows Ishaan's mother her son's notebooks and gives an analysis of the script. Nikumbh deduces that Ishaan has severe difficulty in understanding letters and words. Mr Awasthi tries to dismiss it as a mere excuse for Ishaan's laziness. Nikumbh demonstrates what Ishaan experiences every day at school. He states that Ishaan has dyslexia as well as he may be having other conditions, which make him a difficult child.
Mr Awasthi bluntly categorises it as mental retardation, but Nikumbh criticizes him. Nikumbh argues that Ishaan is an above average child and processes information differently. He further states that Mr Awasthi failed to understand Ishaan and as a result the latter is facing low self-esteem and no longer paints.
Nikumbh returns, and subsequently brings up the topic of dyslexia in class, and offers a list of famous people who were dyslexic. Later, Nikumbh reveals to Ishaan, that he too is a dyslexic and faced problems similar to Ishaan. Nikumbh then visits the school's principal and obtains his permission to become Ishaan's tutor. He attempts to improve Ishaan's reading and writing by using remedial techniques developed by dyslexia specialists; Ishaan soon develops an interest in language and mathematics, and his grades improve.
Towards the end of the school year Nikumbh organises an art fair for the staff and students. The competition is judged by artist Lalita Lajmi. Ishaan, with his strikingly creative style, is declared the winner and Nikumbh, who paints Ishaan's portrait, the runner-up. The principal announces that Nikumbh has been hired as the school's permanent art teacher. When Ishaan's parents meet his teachers on the last day of school they are left speechless by the transformation they see in him. Overcome with emotion, Ishaan's father thanks Nikumbh. As Ishaan is getting into the car to leave with his parents for summer vacations, he turns around and runs toward Nikumbh. The film ends with a freeze frame shot of Nikumbh tossing Ishaan into the air.

Planet Bollywood's Atta Khan rated it 9 out of 10, noting that the soundtrack "unquestionably lives up to all expectations".

Synopsis
Sunita (Jiah Khan) is a medical student, working on a project about the human brain with her class friend . When she is denied access by her professor to the curious case of Sanjay Singhania (Aamir Khan), a man reported to have anterograde amnesia, because it is under criminal investigation, Sunita decides to investigate the matter herself.
It is revealed that Sanjay loses his memory every 15 minutes. He uses a system of photographs, notes, and tattoos to recover his memory after each cycle to remind himself of his mission: to avenge the death of his beloved Kalpana (Asin). He systematically kills the people who were tied to the murder. His main target is Ghajini (Pradeep Rawat), a notable social personality in the city, and the man directly responsible for Kalpana's death and Sanjay's condition.
Police inspector Arjun Yadav (Riyaz Khan) tracks Sanjay down and hits him unconscious. Yadav finds two diaries in which Sanjay has chronicled the events of 2005 and 2006. The film flashes back to 2005 as Yadav reads the diary. Sanjay Singhania is the chairman of the Air Voice mobile telephone company. In the course of business, he sends his men to meet Kalpana, a struggling model of Mumbai, about putting up a billboard above her apartment. The owner of Kalpana's advertising firm misinterprets this as a romantic advance and, in view of a possible lucrative Air Voice ad campaign, encourages Kalpana to accept the overture. Kalpana thinks of it as an innocent prank that may fetch her better modelling work and decides to charade as Sanjay's girlfriend. Sanjay goes to confront Kalpana about this but falls in love with her at first sight. He hides his identity and introduces himself as Sachin, and the two begin spending time together. The diary ends with Sanjay proposing to Kalpana and promising himself that he will reveal his actual identity if she accepts.
When Yadav is about to read the 2006 diary, Sanjay awakes and attacks him, tying him up. Ghajini realizes that someone is trying to kill him but cannot figure out who. Sunita visits Sanjay's flat and discovers Sanjay's plan to kill Ghajini. She takes both his diaries before finding Yadav, beaten and bound, and freeing him. Just then, Sanjay arrives, but he remembers neither of them and chases them out. Yadav is hit by a bus as he flees in terror, and Sunita, believing Ghajini is the good guy in danger, informs him about Sanjay. Ghajini arrives at Sanjay's flat and destroys all of Sanjay's photographs and notes, as well as the tattoos on Sanjay's body, so that Sanjay is left with nothing to help him recover his memory.
As Sunita reads the diaries, the film flashes back to 2006, where it is revealed that Kalpana had accepted Sanjay's proposal. When this diary ends abruptly, Sunita digs further and discovers that Kalpana was travelling to Goa for a modelling assignment when she came upon 25 innocent young girls being trafficked. She had saved the girls, who named Ghajini as the ringleader of the racket. Outraged, Ghajini broke into Kalpana's apartment with his goons to kill her. When Sanjay arrived, he found Kalpana stabbed. Ghajini then hit Sanjay over the head with an iron rod. Sanjay's last sight was Ghajini brutally murdering Kalpana with the iron rod. Kalpana's last word to Sanjay was "Ghajini."
Sunita, now aware of the shocking truth, finds Sanjay in the hospital and tells him the truth. He flies into a heartbroken rage and tracks down Ghajini with Sunita's help. He fights off all of Ghajini's henchmen with a superior and anger-fueled strength. Ghajini, realizing Sanjay is too strong for him, flees. Sanjay's memory loss strikes again, and he forgets who Ghajini is. Ghajini takes this opportunity to stab Sanjay and taunt him with the grisly tale of how he murdered Kalpana. As he is about to make Sanjay relive the experience by killing Sunita the same exact way, Sanjay recovers the memory of Kalpana's death, and overpowers Ghajini in a flash of strength. He finally kills Ghajini, in the same way Ghajini had killed Kalpana.
The film ends with a still-amnesiac Sanjay volunteering at an orphanage. Sunita gives him a gift that reminds him of his bond with Kalpana, and Sanjay imagines Kalpana by his side, finally at peace with himself.

3 Idiots (Hindi: ३ इडियट्स) is a 2009 Indian coming of age comedy-drama film co-written, edited, and directed by Rajkumar Hiraniand produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra. Abhijat Joshi wrote the screenplay. It was loosely adapted from the novel Five Point Someone by Chetan Bhagat. The film stars Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor, R. Madhavan, Sharman Joshi, Omi Vaidya, Parikshit Sahni and Boman Irani.
Upon release, the film broke all opening box office records in India. It was the highest-grossing film in its opening weekend in India and had the highest opening day collections for an Indian film. It also held the record for the highest net collections in the first week for a Bollywood film. It also had a record footfall of 31,785,000. It also became one of the few Indian films to become a major success in East Asian markets such as China, eventually bringing its overseas total to more than US$65 million—the highest-grossing Bollywood film of all time in overseas markets, before being overtaken by Chennai Express (2013).
The film is distinctive for featuring real inventions by little-known people in India's backyards. The brains behind the innovations were Remya Jose, a student from Kerala, who created the exercise-bicycle/washing-machine; Mohammad Idris, a barber from Meerut district in Uttar Pradesh, who invented a bicycle-powered horse clipper; and Jahangir Painter, a painter from Maharashtra, who made the scooter-powered flour mill. This film was remade in Tamil as Nanban (2012) which also received critical praise and commercial success. It has also been announced that there will be a Chinese remake of the film produced by Stephen Chow and that there are plans for a Hollywood remake produced in the United States. A Telugu remake was planned despite Nanbanhaving a Telugu dubbed version titled Snehitudu.

Synopsis
Farhan Qureshi (R.Madhavan) and Raju Rastogi (Sharman Joshi) are students at the Imperial College of Engineering (ICE), a highly regarded Indian engineering college. Farhan's passion is wildlife photography, but he pursues an engineering degree to appease his father. Raju chooses engineering with hopes of improving his family's financial situation, but his lack of self-confidence results in poor grades. Their third roommate and friend, Ranchodas 'Rancho' Shamaldas Chanchad (Aamir Khan), has immense interest in robotics, and invents in his spare time. Rancho regularly faces the wrath of the college's director, Dr. Viru Sahastrabuddhe (Boman Irani), known as "Virus", when he gives creative and unorthodox answers in class. He lives by the philosophy that one should pursue excellence, as when it is achieved, success follows. Virus is shown as an extremely strict person—so strict that he caused his own son's suicide by putting him under excess pressure. The star student of their class is Chatur Ramalingam (Omi Vaidya) nicknamed "Silencer", known for his incredible techniques of memorization but more notorious for his silent but malodorous flatulence in addition to his arrogant attitude. Catering for them and the other college students' needs is Man Mohan, nicknamed "Millimeter".
Chatur, in an attempt to impress his professors, prepares a speech in Hindi for Teachers' Day. He memorizes the speech without knowing what it means due to his mere inability to speak Hindi. Rancho modifies this speech by replacing praise words with obscenities. Chatur memorizes and delivers the modified speech, humiliating himself, Virus, and the Minister of Education. He vows revenge against Rancho, and Chatur also vows that he will be more successful than Rancho. Meanwhile, Rancho falls in love with Pia (Kareena Kapoor), Virus' younger daughter, who is a medical student in residency at the city's hospital. Virus tries to break the trio up but despite the challenges they face, the three manage to stand firm.
The three friends continue to frustrate Virus, although Rancho continues to score highest in every exam, while Chatur is always second, and Farhan and Raju are inevitably in the lowest two positions. The tensions escalate years later when they drunkenly break into the Virus' household at night to allow Rancho to propose to Pia, while Raju and Farhan urinate on the house' door inside the compound. They flee just in time when Virus overhears them in his sleep. The next day, Virus threatens to expel Raju unless he blames Rancho for these wrongdoings. Unable to choose between betraying his friend or letting down his family, Raju unsuccessfully attempts suicide, and ends up in a coma. After intensive care from Pia and his roommates, he recovers.
Farhan and Raju adopt Rancho's outlook after this incident. Farhan decides to pursue his love of photography, while Raju takes an unexpected interview for a corporate job. He impresses the interviewers with his frank answers, however they sense his poor upbringing and discuss the company salary. An unsympathetic Virus vows to make the final exam as hard as possible so that Raju is unable to graduate. Pia overhears this, takes Virus' spare keys and gives Rancho details of the exam, before he and Farhan break into Virus' office and steal it. Raju, with his new-found attitude, refuses to cheat and throws the paper away. Virus catches the trio and expels them on the spot. Pia hears him and angrily confronts him about her brother's suicide, after Virus persuaded him into a career in engineering despite his love for literature. A sobbing Pia then flees to the hospital.
The three friends earn a reprieve when Virus' pregnant elder daughter Mona (Mona Singh) goes into labour at the same time as a heavy storm cuts off all power and traffic. Pia instructs Rancho to deliver the baby in the college common room; he leads his friends and the students restore electricity using car batteries and a power inverter of Rancho's own design. Rancho then delivers the baby with the help of an modified vacuum cleaner. After the baby is apparently stillborn, Rancho and the students revive it with the mantra "All is well". Virus concedes defeat, eventually giving Rancho his treasured space pen and acknowledging him as an extraordinary student. He lets the three students stay for their final exams and graduate.
Ten years later, Chatur is the vice president of a corporation in the United States. Farhan is a successful photographer while Raju is married and lives a comfortable lifestyle. The three reunite at the college campus water tower in order to find Rancho at Shimla. Rancho disappeared shortly after their graduation ceremony and has been out of their lives since. As they travel, they manage to find clues about Rancho's true identity. Stumbling at the Chanchad estate, they meet the real Ranchodas (Javed Jaffrey). He reveals that Rancho they know was "Chotte", an orphaned servant to the Chanchad household who studied in the ICE in the original Rancho's name when the latter went to London for 4 years. Ranchodas' father used the servant in order to fill his son's place and pocket the diploma. After graduation, the servant would later cut contact to start a new life. Ranchodas finishes his story by giving them the address of a village school in Ladakh.
Raju and Farhan rescue Pia from her wedding at Manali despite Chatur's objections; he is in a hurry to set up a business partnership with a world-famous but reclusive scientist and entrepreneur named Phunsukh Wangdu, known for his patents. Upon arrival in Ladakh, they stop at the village school where they see inventions resembling the style of their friend. They reunite briefly with their former caterer, Man Mohan, who shows them that Rancho read and collected Farhan's books, reads and shares Raju's engineering blog, and kept Pia's helmet. Rancho encounters and reunites with Pia in a field while teaching kids how a remote-controlled plane works and flies, only to be beaten up by Farhan and Raju for being a recluse. The four happily celebrate their reunion as Chatur mockingly watches. He forces Rancho to sign a declaration of defeat and attempts to humiliate him, but Raju, Farhan and Pia ask that Rancho reveal his real name. Rancho identifies himself as Phunsukh Wangdu, Chatur's client. Upon learning this, the seemingly victorious Chatur is horrified, accepts his defeat, and begs Rancho/Phunsukh to forgive him and establish the business relationship.

Arun (Aamir Khan), a reclusive artist, moves into a run-down flat in the older part of Mumbai. After attending an exhibition of his works, he meets Shai (Monica Dogra), an American banker who has come to Mumbai to devote time to her hobby, photography, and takes her back to his flat, where they have a one-night stand. The next morning, Arun expresses his disinterest in continuing the relationship and Shai angrily storms out.
Shortly after, Munna (Prateik Babbar), a dhobi (washerman) who dreams about getting a break in Bollywood, arrives to deliver Arun's laundry. Arun moves into a new apartment the next day. While unpacking, he finds a small container that had been left by the previous tenant of the apartment. In it, he finds a silver chain, a ring, and three video tapes (Pehli chitti, Doosri chitti and Aakhri chitti) by Yasmin Noor. The tapes turn out to be video diaries in which Yasmin communicates with her brother. In the tape, she is generally happy, and shows her apartment, which is the same one Arun is occupying now. The next morning, Arun is informed by his manager that art dealers, impressed with his art, have decided to open a gallery in Sydney featuring his works. Arun is pleased by this, as it would also give him a chance to visit his ex-wife and child, settled in Australia. He begins to work on a new painting.
When Munna delivers laundry to Shai's house, they meet and soon become friends. Munna agrees to show Shai around Mumbai and help her gather photographs about the occupations of the poor. In return, Shai agrees to shoot a portfolio of Munna to help him get into the film industry. Arun continues watching Yasmin's tapes and learns more about her life, including that she has recently married a man who seems distant. Shai obtains Arun's new address from Munna. Shai's father's construction company is constructing a building opposite Arun's apartment. Shai starts shooting photos of Arun from the construction site without Arun being aware of it.
Munna continues struggling to find work in films. To earn a living, he washes clothes by day and kills rats by night. He disapproves of his brother's criminal activity but they are close, and Munna's brother uses his underworld contacts to try to get Munna a break in the industry. In the meantime, Munna shows Shai the different facets of Mumbai, including the dhobi ghaat, where he works as a launderer. Munna develops feelings for Shai but is unable to express them, mostly because of his working-class status. One day, Arun spots Shai nearby and invites her to his house. He apologises about their first meeting. Munna sees them together and feels betrayed but Shai is able to convince him to keep helping her. One night, while Munna is at his rat-killing job, Shai sees him and takes pictures. Dismayed, Munna flees from her.
Arun watches the final video by Yasmin. Her tone has changed considerably since the previous tape, in which she revealed learning that her husband was in an extramarital affair. She strongly indicates that she intends to commit suicide. Shaken by the knowledge that Yasmin might have hanged herself in that very room, Arun flees the apartment and moves into a new one. Munna arrives home to find that his brother has been killed. He and his family relocate to a new flat and Munna visits his brother's contact in the film industry to show him his portfolio.
Arun studies the painting he has been working on, which is now complete. Yasmin is prominently featured along with other things she had left behind. Shortly after, Shai finds Munna and Munna again tries to flee her, but she catches up with him. She insists upon their friendship and asks about Arun's whereabouts. Still hurt, Munna lies to her and they exchange an abrupt farewell before Shai leaves. Moments later, Munna changes his mind and runs after Shai's car, weaving through the traffic. The film ends when Munna catches up to the car and gives Shai Arun's new address.

Late at night on a deserted road, well-known actor Armaan Kapoor (Vivan Bhatena) loses control of his car for no evident reason, apparently trying to avoid something, and drives into the sea. Inspector Surjan Shekhawat (Aamir Khan) with his assistant Devrath Kulkarni (Rajkummar Rao) begins an investigation into Armaan's death. Surjan's personal life is in turmoil since his 8-year-old son, Karan, drowned recently during a family outing. His wife, Roshni (Rani Mukerji), is still grieving and Surjan has developed a guilt complex.
Surjan learns that on the night of Armaan's accident, Armaan was travelling with 2 million rupees in cash, which is missing from the car. Armaan had given the money to a blackmailer, a pimp named Shashi (Subrat Dutta). Three years back, Shashi had performed a cover-up for Armaan and his friend Sanjay Kejriwal (Suhas Ahuja). Once he learns of Armaan's death, Shashi takes off with the cash, leaving behind a mistress, Mallika (Aditi Vasudev). Shashi's friend, Tehmur (Nawazuddin Siddiqui), steals Shashi's discarded sim card. Shashi begins blackmailing Sanjay. In panic, Sanjay employs some thugs to murder Shashi. Tehmur begins to use Shashi's old sim card to blackmail Sanjay with Shashi's murder.
Meanwhile, Roshni seeks solace from a medium (Shernaz Patel) who is in touch with Karan's soul. One night, Surjan is propositioned by an escort, Rosie (Kareena Kapoor). He declines Rosie's advances but asks her if she can become an informer. Through Rosie, Surjan finds out about Shashi's connection with the case. The police find Shashi's body, along with the blackmail money and a DVD. The DVD contains embarrassing CCTV footage of Armaan and his friends leaving a hotel with a girl. Convinced of Armaan's link with prostitutes, Surjan focuses his search on the slums near the Hotel Lido. To speak unobserved, Rosie takes Surjan to a quiet place by the riverside and tells him that three years ago, she was picked up by Armaan and his friends, Sanjay and Nikhil (Prashant Prakash). However, she doesn't reveal anything more. Surjan tries to approach Nikhil for more information but discovers that Nikhil has been brain-dead after the incident three years ago. After a heated argument with Roshni, Surjan confides in Rosie, who comforts him by taking him to the Lido.
Tehmur is killed by the two thugs in Sanjay's employ. One of the thugs is captured by the police and reveals that Sanjay has been behind the murders of both Shashi and Tehmur. Surjan arrests Sanjay, who confesses that three years ago, Sanjay, Armaan and Nikhil had picked up an escort to celebrate Nikhil's birthday. While driving, Nikhil began making out with the girl in the backseat. The car door opened by accident, throwing both Nikhil and the girl from the moving car to the road. Both were badly injured. Armaan and Sanjay rushed Nikhil to the hospital but fearing scandal, left the girl unattended on the road. Sanjay had called Shashi to ask him to take care of her. However, Shashi informed them that the girl had died and that he had footage of the three leaving with her. Since then, Shashi had continued to extort money from them by blackmail.
Surjan re-watches the footage and realizes that the girl is Rosie. As he drives Sanjay to the police station, they approach the same road where Armaan had his car accident. Both Surjan and Sanjay see Rosie standing ahead. In a re-enactment of Armaan's accident, Sanjay swerves the car into the sea. With Sanjay already dead, Surjan struggles to get himself out of the car. Rosie appears underwater and saves him. At the police station, Surjan's superior advises him against reporting his incredible story. Surjan agrees to write in the official report that Armaan Kapoor's death was an accident. He returns to the riverside place where he used to meet Rosie and uncovers her remains where Shashi had hidden her body. Remembering that he had been told that "the dead come to those who are troubled," he gives her a proper funeral.
Now more accepting of the supernatural, Surjan finds a letter from Karan, penned by the medium. Through the letter, Karan tells Surjan not to blame himself for his death and that he wants both his parents to be happy. Surjan cries and Roshni consoles him. The two are reconciled.

In the year 1990, Iqbal Haroon Khan (Jackie Shroff) runs The Great Indian Circus in Chicago, which has fallen on bad times. Anderson's (Andrew Bicknell) bank — Western Bank of Chicago — which has lent money to Iqbal Khan, decides to close down the circus when Khan is unable to repay the loan. Young Sahir (Siddharth Nigam), the little son of Iqbal Khan, pleads with Anderson not to shut down his father's circus, as he and his father would soon be able to turn the corner. But Iqbal Khan's presentation before the bankers and Sahir's pleas don't help. Iqbal Khan commits suicide in front of the heartless Anderson, leaving Sahir devastated.
Now in 2013, Sahir (Aamir Khan) has still not forgotten the high-handedness of the bank and swears revenge. He robs various branches of Western Bank of Chicago, leaving behind a message in Hindi and a clown mask. During the chase, he runs from top to the bottom of the Western Bank of Chicago building. As the police come to the scene, he runs into a van as they begin to surround the vehicle. Sahir jumps out in a BMW K1300R after a little explosion. On the chase, he slides under a truck and pops out to continue. He further kicks a police officer off his patrol motorcycle causing the officer to lose control and crash into a newspaper stand. While beyond that, Sahir continually tries to escape his pursuers and goes into a public parking garage. Then out of nowhere, he uses a steel cable cord like an attachment and rides his bike on it and is nearly knocked down by a train. despite all efforts of law enforcement, the robbery isn't foiled and he successfully gets away.
As Chicago Police Officer Victoria (Tabrett Bethell) fails to catch him, she calls ACP Jay Dixit (Abhishek Bachchan) and his partner, Ali (Uday Chopra), for help in solving the case. Jay baits Sahir into robbing again by making it known he's on the case and that he believes the thief to be an amateur thereby goading him on. Gathering information from a news channel regarding the plan, Sahir poses as an informant for Jay, and manages to gather information on the bank while giving Jay a lead to follow. Eventually, Sahir robs the bank and escapes, but Jay and Ali follow him. During the pursuit, Sahir nearly knocks Ali and stops on Wabash Avenue as the bridge rises, he drives straight and jumps off. His bike transforms into a jet ski. While on a water pursuit, Jay manages to take a boat and chases Sahir. After almost knocking off Ali, Sahir is almost about to reach the next bridge but the police arrive. Sahir dives underwater, then jumps out from the water transforming his jet ski back to his bike. Jay, while hanging on a helicopter ladder, manages to shoot Sahir on the left shoulder before he disappears again.
Sahir has a big premiere of a revamped version of The Great Indian Circus, with his female lead acrobat, Aaliya (Katrina Kaif), involving a trick with him disappearing in one place and showing up in another. The show is a success, but afterwards, Jay, Ali, and the police surround him, knowing he's the thief. Jai says the proof will be the gunshot wound, but when Sahir is examined, there is no evidence of a gunshot wound anywhere on his body. Jay and Ali leave while Sahir retires to his dressing room. It is then revealed that Sahir has an autistic twin brother, Samar, who helps him pull off his trick and helps him in planning and pulling of the robberies (like the rope string stunt and ejecting the jet-ski bike) and it was Samar who sustained the gun-shot wound.
Jay is fired from the case, but is encouraged by Ali to prove Sahir's guilt by going rogue. Jay eventually finds out about Samar, and sets about finding a way to corner Sahir. Samar, being mentally challenged, is kept in seclusion by Sahir. However, he allows Samar outdoors once a week, and Jay manages to befriend him during this time in order to perform his plan. Samar has fallen in love with Aaliya after performing with her in the circus, but cannot express it. This leads to a rift between the brothers. Jay tries to take advantage of this, but Sahir finds out and thwarts Jay's plan to stop them.When Sahir comes in the disguise of Samar, Jay reveals his true identity and assuming him to be Samar, tells him to surrender since he can give them justice. When Sahir reveals himself, he ties Jay to the track of a roller coaster and tells him that he used Samar for his own benefit. He switches the roller coaster on but Ali arrives in time to save him from being crushed. He decides the only way to catch the brothers is in the act of robbing. Sahir and Samar pull off their final bank heist, and escape. However, the following day, Jay manages to corner them as they're making their way out of town. They rob on 22 May. Samar is hesitant to run when Aaliya shows up, begging him to stop. Sahir surrenders to Jay, asking him to spare Samar. Jai agrees, but right after, Sahir attempts to jump off the dam. Samar grabs Sahir's hand, refusing to let him go. Sahir begs Samar to let go, saying he can live freely with Aaliya. But Samar says that both of them are born together and should die together. Eventually, the two of them jump off the dam together. Western Bank of Chicago is shut down as a result of the heists, while Aaliya is shown having taken over The Great Indian Circus and still performing for it.

A humanoid alien (Aamir Khan) lands on Earth naked on a research mission in Rajasthan, but is stranded when the remote control of his spaceship is stolen. He manages to get the thief's cassette recorder, a National Panasonic RQ-565D. On the same day in Bruges, Jaggu (Anushka Sharma) meets Sarfaraz (Sushant Singh Rajput) and falls in love with him. Jaggu's father (Parikshit Sahni) objects to their relationship because Sarfaraz is a Pakistani Muslim, while Jaggu is a Hindu. He consults godman Tapasvi Maharaj (Saurabh Shukla) who predicts that Sarfaraz will betray Jaggu. Determined to prove them wrong, Jaggu proposes to Sarfaraz, who accepts. She is heartbroken at the wedding chapel when she receives a letter calling off the marriage due to their cultural differences.
Jaggu returns to India and becomes a TV reporter. She meets the alien and is intrigued to see him distribute leaflets about the "missing" Gods. She saves him when he attempts to take money from a collection box, earning his trust.
The alien tells her that he is a research scientist from another planet. His people know nothing about dressing, religion or verbal communication. They transfer ideas by holding hands. The alien learned to fit in among humans by wearing clothes and using money stolen from couples having sex in "dancing cars".
After being accidentally hit by a truck, the alien is befriended by bandmaster Bhairon Singh (Sanjay Dutt), who takes him along with his troop. The alien attempts to learn to communicate by grabbing peoples' hands but people chase him away, believing him to be a pervert. Bhairon takes him to a brothel, where the alien holds a prostitute's (Reema Debnath) hand for six hours and thus learns the Bhojpuri language.
Bhairon has a conversation with the alien, and suggests that the thief may be in Delhi. The alien leaves for Delhi. Due to his strange behavior, the people assume he is drunk and call him "PK" (pee-kay, Hindi for "drunk"). People tell him that only "God" can help him find his remote. PK sincerely practices every Indian religion attempting to find "God", to no avail. He later discovers that Tapasvi has his remote, who claims it was a gift from God, and refuses to return the remote. Jaggu promises PK that she will recover his remote and he can go back home.
PK conjectures that Tapasvi and other godmen must be dialling a "wrong number" to communicate with God, and are therefore advising the public to engage in meaningless rituals. Jaggu encourages the public to expose fraudulent godmen, by sending their videos to her news channel. This "wrong number" campaign turns into a popular mass-movement, to the dismay of Tapasvi. Meanwhile, Bhairon finds the thief and contacts PK, informing him they will come to Delhi, but both die in a terrorist attack. The terrorist attack is later declared by Tapasvi's group to be stated as protecting their Gods.
Tapasvi decides to confront PK on-air. Tapasvi asks PK what the "right number" is. PK says that "God that created us all" is the only concept people should believe in, and that the other "duplicate Gods" are created by man. Tapasvi argues, saying that PK is trying to take people away from their Gods and that they will not stand for their Gods being taken away from them either. He claims he has a direct connection to God and refers to his prediction of Sarfaraz's betrayal to try to prove that Muslims are liars, but PK disagrees. PK realises that Sarfaraz did not write the letter. Jaggu contacts the Pakistani Embassy in Belgium where Sarfaraz worked part-time. The embassy tells her that Sarfaraz still loves her, and transfers the line to Sarfaraz, who is now living in Lahore. Jaggu and Sarfaraz reconnect, and Tapasvi is forced to return PK's remote, while also being exposed to the whole of India that he had planned to break Jaggu and Sarfaraz through his "predictions".
Meanwhile, PK has fallen in love with Jaggu, but refrains from telling her because she loves Sarfaraz. Having filled multiple audio tapes with her voice alone, he takes two suitcases full of tapes and extra batteries when leaving for home. After his departure, Jaggu publishes a book about him.
One year later, PK returns to Earth on a new research mission on human nature along with several other aliens (including one played by Ranbir Kapoor).

Mahavir Singh Phogat is an amateur wrestler who was forced to give up wrestling in order to obtain gainful employment. He was unable to win a gold medal for India and vows that his son will. He is disappointed when his wife gives birth to four daughters. He gives up his dream thinking that girls cannot wrestle and should only be taught household chores. But when his older daughters, Geeta and Babita come home after beating up two boys in response to derogatory comments, Mahavir realises his daughters have the potential to become wrestlers.
Mahavir begins coaching Geeta and Babita in wrestling. His methods seem harsh, including gruelling early morning workouts and short haircuts to avoid lice. Initially, the girls resent their father for his treatment but they soon realise that their father wants them to have a future and not grow up to be stereotypical housewives. The girls become motivated and willingly participate in Mahavir's coaching. Mahavir takes the girls to wrestling tournaments. Geeta and Babita both wrestle with boys and beat them, much to everyone's dismay. Geeta eventually wins the Junior Internationals and goes to an institute in Patiala for further training so she can participate in the Commonwealth Games.
Geeta makes friends at the institute and begins to disregard the discipline she has been brought up with. She regularly watches films, eats junk food and grows her hair longer. Her coach's training differs significantly from her father's techniques. Geeta believes her coach's techniques are better and that Mahavir's techniques are weak. On a visit home, she is determined to show her father she can wrestle well without his techniques. This leads to a ferocious bout between Geeta and Mahavir. Mahavir loses against Geeta due to his age. Babita tells Geeta that she shouldn't forget her father's techniques and reminds her that it is because of their father that she is where she is now.
Babita soon follows Geeta to the institute. Geeta finds herself losing every match as she is not following her father's techniques. Realising her error, she tearfully makes peace with Mahavir. Mahavir comes to the institute and begins coaching Geeta and Babita, using the same methods as when they were younger. Their coach is furious with Mahavir's interference and wants to expel them both from the institution, but a deal is struck to allow them to continue as long as Mahavir does not enter the institution or train them elsewhere. Determined to continue assisting his daughters, Mahavir obtains tapes of Geeta's previous unsuccessful bouts and coaches her by pointing out her errors over the phone.
During Geeta's bouts in the Commonwealth Games, Mahavir constantly contradicts her coach's instructions while sitting in the audience. Geeta disregards her coach and follows her father's instructions and wins every bout. Just before the final bout, Geeta's jealous coach conspires to lock Mahavir in a closet far away from the arena. Despite her father's absence, Geeta manages to win the final bout and becomes the first Indian female wrestler to win gold. Mahavir returns just in time to embrace his daughters, frustrating the coach's hopes of obtaining credit before the news media.
The end credits reveal that Babita also won gold in wrestling at the Commonwealth Games in 2014, Geeta became the first Indian female wrestler to qualify for the Olympics and Mahavir's efforts inspired dozens of Indian women to participate in wrestling.

Haha... minat ai kat plakon2 selalunya bertukar2 ikut keadaan.
Salman Khan tu ai still minat cuma x de la dasat mcm dulu. Penah jah zmn2 study dulu ai share minat Salman Khan dgn fans dia kat oversea, ai kenal dgn sorang fans fanatik dia kat UAE... huhu... tp nyampes taw peminat dia tuh tlampau fanatik sampai x bleh terima apa2 weakness Salman.. di mata dia Salman tu perfect gile. Ai sampai x bleh nk puji plakon2 lain kalo chat dgn dia, mesti dia kutuk plakon lain yg ai suka tu..annoying gile. 
Cthnya ai kata la ai suka Hrithik Roshan...dia terus kutuk Hrithik berbakul2.. hek ele... Dengki la tu sbb Hrithik kalo menari lebih best drp Salman...dok kutuk2 Hrithik tlampau tinggi & x sesuai menari..whateverrr...Salman katik tu lebih hebat kekdahnya.
Aamir Khan plak ai kureng minat dia dulu sbb kan dia x byk blakon movie. Plus Aamir ni mulut dia boleh tahan celupar. Zmn2 ai kumpul vcd flem Bollywood dulu around tahun 2000-2004... whcih Aamir "pencen" blakon kejap kan.. last dia blakon Dil Chahta Hai tahun 2001... pastu dia rehat sampai tahun 2005 baru dia kuarkan cite Mangal Pandey, which ms tu ai dh stop beli vcd filem2 Bollywood. So nasib la kan...dia Khan yg ai paling ai x amik atttention sgt walopun dia Khan yg paling ensem & ai tau dia byk menang award. Eh.... tapi kan sumpah ai x suka tgk imej dia dlm few movie, esp Dil Chahta Hai (muka mcm org miang) & Mangal Pandey (sbb bwk watak tokoh sejarah yg x ensem). And sejak dia dh masuk 40 series, x tau nape ai tgk smakin ensem & seksi plak pacit nih.. tolak tepi la kontroversi2 & perangai mulut celupar dia tuh!
Tang SRK tu plak, dia sama mcm Salman Khan sbb filem dia byk gile...so ai akan still beli vcd / dvd filem dia yg paling fofuler. Ai biasanya akan tunggu review kalo ada yg kata filem tu best, baru ai beli dvd dia. Cth mcm My Name Is Khan, Don, etc. Selain 3 Khans ni & Hrithik, ai minat gak dgn plakon ensem otai mcm Anil Kapoor (emak ai pun minat dia..hehehhh)...also plakon2 Akshay Kumar & Akshaye Khanna. My sister plak rembes dgn Arjun Rampal & John Abraham... err.. senyuman John Abraham tu menawan gak kan..sbb ada lesung pipit.. Plakon2 lain tu ai natural jah..x kejar sgt filem2 diaorg.
Baidewei cite Salman Khan yg baru tu, Bajrangi Bhaijaan tu asalnya watak Salman dioffer kpd Aamir, tp disbbkan Aamir sedang dlm proses membelonkan badan utk preparation shoot filem Dangal tahun 2016 nnt, maka offer tu diberikan kpd Salman. Yg bagusnya Aamir gi support filem ni ms tayangan perdana...kuar panggung sampai bengkak2 mata...kat twitter dia dok puji2 melambung lakonan Salman... the best Salman's movie ever katanya.. so ai pun teruja tunggu movie ni kuar dvd nnt..

Last week ai layan Ghajini... smlm pun ai layan skali lg dgn my sister...huiyoo... gile macho & gentleman nye pacit Aamir dlm movie ni.. x nampak pun dia mcm 40s series.. tp more to end 20s or early 30s. No wonder pastu dia terus shoot 3 Idiots, pegang watak budak umur early 20s plak... walhal ms tu umur dia dh masuk 44. Movie Ghajini ni unik, where jalan cerita dia unexpected, lawak, sweet, mendebarkan, saspen, sadis, & buat kita x bleh stop nonton sbb nk tau apa yg blaku next....pastu ada byk appearance Aamir yg wowwee merembess.. 
Ending x de la happy sgt, tp at least x klise mcm movie2 Hindi yg biasa kita tgk.. walopun filem ni remake drp filem Tamil & Hollywood. One more thing ai angkat topi la dgn Aamir yg komited & gigh work-out badan dia selama setahun semata2 utk shoot movie nih...

Beliau mmg bintang kissing mulot gituh... x tau la skrg dh insaf ke blum (sejak dh jadi pak haji)!
Dedulu ms first time nonton filem Raja Hindustani, ai tkujat gak sbb bagi ai, scene kissing mulot ni sgt la kureng sopan or taboo utk dilakukan dlm filem2 Asia, also bagi dlm filem dari Hong Kong pun.
Tp bila zmn2 skrg ni mcm dh jadi perkara biasa plak... even Hrithik Roshan pun ada buat (plakon2 lain ai x pasti).. except SRK dia mmg kepantangan buat scene kissing mulot ni kan.. Rasanya Salman Khan pun sama, ai x penah nampak lg la dia buat scene gitu dlm movie2 dia (yg ai penah nonton la).

Aamir's mother celebrates her birthday with grandchildren Azad, Junaid, Ira
14 June 2015
[attach]161839[/attach] [attach]161841[/attach] [attach]161842[/attach] [attach]161840[/attach]
Bollywood perfectionist Aamir Khan celebrated his mother's birthday today at his Bandra residence. The actor along with his three children - Junaid, Ira and Azad were snapped cutting the birthday cake with their grand mother.
We got our hands exclusively on some of the pictures from this family celebration. Looking at the photos, one can be rest assured that Aamir's youngest son was the centre of attention for all. Though it was his dadi's birthday, it was Azad who cut the cake.
Also present at this private birthday celebration were Aamir's sister's kids, all of whom seemed thoroughly enjoying the time with little Azad entertaining all. However, Aamir's wife Kiran Rao, brother Faizal Khan and ex-wife Reena seem to be missing from this family get together.

Aamir Khan confirms he's not starring in 'Kung Fu Yoga' with Jackie Chan
May 21, 2015 13:10 IST
[attach]161798[/attach]
Mumbai: Superstar Aamir Khan has made it clear that he is not doing a film with Chinese action star Jackie Chan because he will be shooting for his most talked about movie "Dangal".
It has been reported that the 50-year-old actor is collaborating with Chan on an Indo-Chinese production. The project, titled "Kung Fu Yoga", will highlight USPs of the two nations.
"Jackie is planning that film with director Stanley Tong, who has made number of Jackie's films. It is not possible for me to do it (film). I would have loved to do it. They are shooting in September-October and that time I will be busy with 'Dangal'. I can start any film in August-September next year," Aamir said in an interview here.
Apparently, this project is part of the three-film agreement signed between the two countries during Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to India last year. Looking at the growing popularity of Bollywood films in China, the agreement is meant to help both the countries.
Aamir, who is a big fan of Chan, is all praise for the actor.
"I have been a big fan of him. I had seen his film 'Police Story' in back-to-back shows in a theatre. He is not an action hero alone... his comic timing is superb. I told him I am big fan of him. I have seen lot of his films. I told him how popular he is in India. He was very happy to know about it," Aamir said.
Chan has not watched Aamir's latest film "PK", but he had seen "3 Idiots".
"I did not ask him if he has seen my films. But the way he met me, I felt he has seen my films. He has seen '3 Idiots'. He is a nice...warm guy," Aamir said.

Aamir Khan on ‘PK’ in China, Jackie Chan and ‘Dangal’
Aamir Khan shared updates about 'Dangal' and stated why he is unable to work with Jackie Chan.

Aamir Khan, who recently returned to Mumbai after a grand ‘PK’ premiere in China, is bustling with excitement about his trip – the people, the love he received and the dedication he saw in Chinese fans when it comes to Bollywood.
Aamir, who is currently almost twice his size in preparation for ‘Dangal’, where he will be seen portraying former wrestler Mahavir Phogat, shared updates from the much-anticipated project in an interview with Indian Express and stated why he is unable to work with Jackie Chan.
Speaking about his meeting with Jackie Chan, Aamir Khan said he was thrilled to meet the ‘Rush Hour’ actor.
“He’s a lovely guy. I met him at an event where the films were being launched. And then later that night, he invited me for dinner, so I spent the evening with him. He’s a very warm, loving guy. I have been a very big fan of his since I watched ‘Police Story 2’. I had watched it in New Talkies, which is now a shopping mall. So, when I watched the film I did not even know who the actor was. And I liked the film so much, that when I came out after it, I bought another ticket and watched the next show as well. And ever since, I really like Jackie because he’s not just an action hero, but also his comic timing as a performer is amazing. So lets see, if we get an opportunity to work together after this Indo-Chinese treaty.”
Contrary to recent reports, Aamir Khan clarified that he will not be working with Jackie Chan in ‘Kung Fu Yoga’.
“It is a film that Jackie is planning with director Stanley Tong who has made a number of Jackie’s films including ‘Rumble in the Bronx’. However, it’s not possible for me to do this film because they are shooting it this year. I would have liked to do it, but right now I’m doing ‘Dangal’. And around the same time that they are shooting – October to December I am also shooting. After that I will reduce my weight for five months – January to May. Then in June I will complete shooting for my younger version in ‘Dangal’,” said Aamir Khan.
Aamir Khan, however, did promise that he would be going back to his ‘Dhoom 3’ six-pack abs, which will be put on full display in the Nitesh Tiwari-directed film.
While Aamir Khan might only be able to take up a new film mid-next year, the actor says he has been receiving quite a few offers from mainstream Hollywood and foreign cinema as well. “I’m happy to do a foreign film as long as it meets my requirements. I have been approached but none of the scripts excited me. I have mainly been offered mainstream Hollywood but I haven’t liked any. But, if the material excites me, I am ready to do any film, even a Chinese film.”
[attach]161789[/attach]
On his upcoming plans, Aamir revealed, “I don’t plan for the future too much. I do one film at a time. ‘Satyamev Jayate’ will be on hold till I finish ‘Dangal’. The film will only release at Christmas next year – 2016 December.”
Coming back to his recent China visit, Aamir Khan said he was surrounded by screaming fans during his visit to the neighbouring nation. Aamir Khan says he was most surprised that he had such an up-to-date audience in China. “China was very exciting. Right from my arrival at the airport to my departure, I was surrounded by fans. That was the level of their enthusiasm.”
The actor blushingly spoke about the much talked about kiss he received from a fan during his trip. “The fans were too excited and were at the airport as well. That’s where all this kiss-wiss happened. They would wait at the hotel, whenever I would leave and return, there would be around 20-25 people around,” he said.
Aamir Khan also joked about wife Kiran’s reaction to these kisses, “Luckily, Kiran was not there,” he said with a laugh. “She is actually in Bangalore along with Azad for her mother’s birthday. And this trip was too short, full of interviews and events, so Kiran said we’ll go for a holiday another time.”
“We had two ‘PK’ screenings – Shanghai and Beijing and they had travelled from different parts. They were quite crazy also like screaming, shouting and being how fans usually are. But, even the regular audience who I met outside these events had already seen the film on pirated sites. Now, when you watch a film on a pirated site, it means that you are actively searching out for those films. It’s not landing in your lap and so requires a bit of effort. All of them (fans in China) have seen at least six films of mine – Lagaan, Ghajini, Rang De Basanti, Taare Zameen Par, 3 Idiots and Talaash to name a few. So, I was quite amazed because it shows they are really interested, said Aamir Khan, who was casually dressed in blue T shirt, track pants and baseball cap.
He further added, “I am against piracy, but I have friends who are hooked onto ‘Game of Thrones’. So, they download it because they have interest in the series and it’s not available here. Same way, the Chinese people are also practicing this for Indian films which is quite an amazing thing. But, we’re not doing the same thing. Maybe we lack the curiosity, but we should show some interest in their cinema. I think we only know Jackie Chan because of his action films, but we aren’t aware of the rest. So there, I received lot of love and respect. They really love us – Raju (Rajkumar Hirani), Vinod too (Vidhu Vinod Chopra). It was very touching and I was moved, but of course I didn’t cry like how I do on ‘Satyamev Jayate’,” said Aamir Khan with a laugh.
Talking about making Bollywood cinema more available to the Chinese folk, Aamir Khan says, “This agreement that has been signed will help that. Right now China has a policy where they take 40 films from outside of China. Out of these films, 36 are from USA and other parts. But, four films go from India every year. So, they have a restricted policy of a set number of films that they allow to import. Slowly, this number will hopefully increase. And of course, if we co-produce, the number will surely rise.”
After many rumours suggesting Kangana Ranaut, Shruti Haasan and a few others who were considered for the part of Aamir Khan’s onscreen daughters in ‘Dangal’, the actor finally confirmed the names of the girls – Fatima Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra.
“We tested them and they are very good. We auditioned a lot of girls, but these two are very talented and even those who didn’t get selected were very good, but these two girls suited the parts best. Right now, they are undergoing wrestling training along with me,” said Aamir.
He further added, “Right now we’re concentrating on the casting of the girls – when I say girls I mean we have got Fatima and Sana. But, we need Geeta and Babita’s younger versions – they have to be 12-14 years. These are the tough castings and we need to concentrate on that. The girls have to be good actors and athletic too. Then we can teach them wrestling. Once that is done, we will come to the rest of the casting – my wife, there’s also a lovely role of my nephew in the film and other parts.”
While Hollywood actors including Christian Bale and Jake Gyllenhaal have been known to undergo drastic weight changes for film roles, the practice is not too common in Bollywood. Talking about the ill effects that the fluctuating weight has on his health at 50, Aamir Khan says, “It is very bad for my health, especially in these quick spurts. Generally when you put on weight it’s not a good thing, but you do it gradually over 5-10 years. Here, I have gained 25 kilos in six months. Putting on weight at this age is very easy, but losing it is difficult.”
Apparently, Aamir Khan was constantly questioned about his weight in China. “They were all asking me ‘why have you become fat?’ Everybody had the same question so I had to tell them I am happy now so I have put on weight (laughs). But, I explained to everybody that I am shooting for a film where I am playing a wrestler so I had to get fat.”
On China’s reaction to ‘PK’, Aamir Khan said it was a relatively positive response though the film touched on the concept of religion.
“So far the reaction from the audience was positive. I think when a film is good; the language cannot be a barrier. It’s like the Italian film, ‘Life is Beautiful’ – such a wonderful film. We have never been through the holocaust, but yet as human beings we can relate to it. In fact the beauty of a film is when you watch it from another country. I wouldn’t want an Indianised version of an Italian film, I want a pure Italian film. So we don’t have to change our cinema, because it is the qualities of our cinema that appeals to people from outside.”
“Cinema is one medium which bridges the gap between people from different societies very rapidly because when you watch the film, you come to know the characters and where they come from. You see similarities and are able to relate to people from other countries. So, us watching Chinese films and them watching ours is a very big step because it brings our cultures closer. And when that happens, you can do business together. And what India and China are trying to achieve is very dynamic and the film industry has a big role to play in getting people closer to each other.”
Known to keep his audience in suspense and anticipation about his onscreen appearances, Aamir Khan refused to comment on reports about him playing a cameo in ‘Dil Dhadake Do’. “I don’t know ya. I haven’t watched the film,” he said laughingly.
However, we do hope to see him in the Zoya Akhtar film, because it will be his only onscreen treat to his fans this year.

Jackie Chan had especially sent his designer to take Aamir’s measurements when the actor was in China for the release of PK.

Released in December 2014, PK features Aamir Khan in the role of an alien who gets lost on earth and is trying to figure out a way to go back to his planet. In the pursuit, he comes across notions of different religions and their gods questioning, challenging and discarding each as he makes his journey.
The film raised controversy amongst the contemporary conservative but achieved astronomical success making Rs.620 crore globally- biggest amount of money ever made by any Bollywood film.

Wearing a crisp white Kurta-Pyjama, Aamir stepped out with his son Azad and wife Kiran Rao for the first time in front of the media on the occasion of Eid.
"Wish you all happy Eid on behalf me, Kiran and Azad. It is a happy day for us. It is a family time... relatives come and we have fun. We are going to my Ammi's (mother's) place," Aamir told reporters here outside his house in suburban Bandra.

During the press conference Azad, who was perched on his mother's lap, kept smiling. Reminiscing his childhood days, Aamir said, "There are lots of memories of childhood of Eid. I don't like to give Eidi... I like to take it from elders. Earlier we used to get Rs two or five and it was a big thing... we cousins used to compare it. We used to buy kites and fly," Aamir said.
"I am training Azad for that. He has not got Eidi...(But) I will give it to him," he said.
The 50-year-old 'PK' star, however, refused to talk about any of his film projects today and said, "Aaj ke din baat nahi karte hai (let's not talk about anything else today)..Let's stick to Eid."
Aamir's next release is ‘Dangal’.
