When the King of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, played Santa for Aamir Khan and gifted him an expensive laptop
Aamir Khan
is gearing up for his big-screen comeback with his ambitious project
Sitaare Zameen Par
. This marks his return after
Laal Singh Chaddha
, which turned out to be the biggest flop of his career. While fans may remember the long-standing rivalry between Aamir and
Shah Rukh Khan
in the 90s, the actor recently shared a heartwarming anecdote that revealed a softer side to their relationship.
In a conversation with Raj Shamani, Aamir opened up about his so-called love-hate friendship with SRK. He recalled the year 1996, when the two superstars performed together at a show. Describing himself as 'technologically challenged,' Aamir revealed that Shah Rukh, after noticing this, gifted him an expensive Toshiba laptop. Despite the generous gesture, Aamir admitted he didn't use it for a long time, reported Times Now.
Aamir Khan said, 'Our generation of actors share a lot of warmth and respect for each other. When Shah Rukh Khan and I were on the show in 1996, Shah Rukh Khan gifted me a laptop. I am a digitally handicapped person. I have an analogue person. He had told me that he was purchasing the latest laptop. I told them that I don't have a laptop.'

Aamir Khan further stated that he damaged the laptop by not losing it for four years. The Sitaare Zameen Par actor said, 'He purchased the same laptop for himself as well as for me. He installed everything in my laptop and gifted it to me. After 4 years, my manager asked me if he could use my laptop, as it had not been used for a long time. I had completely forgotten that I had a laptop. When he showed it to me, I realised it was gifted by SRK. I told him to use it. That laptop didn't even turn on.' Well, Aamir Khan is very honest about his mistakes, but his revelation might leave Shah Rukh Khan fans heartbroken.
Talking about his next, Sitaare Zameen Par, the film also stars Genelia Deshmukh as the female lead. It is all set to release on June 20, 2025 in theatres.

While her early life was quite complicated, with her parents separating and later on her mother getting married to a co-worker, Vanessa established a life for herself by appearing in music videos for artists like Krayzie Bone and Snoop Dogg. Vanessa's mother once again separated from her stepfather on the grounds of infidelity in 2002. Vanessa met Kobe Bryant in the year 1999 when she was 17 years old, and six months later, the duo got engaged, followed by their marriage in the year 2001.

Producers move Karnataka HC against KFCC ban on Kamal Haasan's new film
Producers move Karnataka HC against KFCC ban on Kamal Haasan's new film BENGALURU: Chennai-based producers of Kamal Haasan-starrer 'Thug Life', set to hit the screens Thursday, on Monday filed a petition before Karnataka high court, challenging the ban imposed by Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce on the movie's release in the state. The petitioner has sought a restraint order against KFCC and adequate security to producers, cast and other associated persons. The high court will take up the petition for hearing on Tuesday. The KFCC announced the ban on May 30 following the actor's remarks that 'Kannada is born from Tamil'. Raajkamal Films International, the petitioner, said the ground for the KFCC ban is based not on the contents of the movie, but on alleged personal remarks made by Kamal Haasan , the lead actor in the film. It argued that the action of KFCC in issuing a press release or public declarations announcing a ban is arbitrary and illegal. KFCC president M Narasimhalu told a news agency they will not allow the movie's screening unless the actor offers an apology, and confirmed that film distributors were awaiting a conversation with Haasan. "We will respond after reviewing court developments," he added. Reports suggested South Indian Film Chamber of Commerce has reached out to Kamal Haasan to resolve the situation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Encontre voos low-cost Voos | Anúncios de Pesquisa Saiba Mais Undo In the high court, the movie producers claimed Central Board of Film Certification has issued a certificate under Cinematograph Act. Hence, the ban infringes upon fundamental rights guaranteed under Article 19(1)(g). It further argued that 'Thug Life' has no characters, dialogues or opinions on the relationship between the two languages. Mandya MLA Ravikumar Ganiga Monday said Ooty and Hosur were once part of the erstwhile Mysore state. Though now in Tamil Nadu, these areas historically belong to Karnataka and should be merged back, he said. The MLA criticised what he described as a pattern of disregard from Tamil Nadu toward Karnataka's interests.
