Aamir Khan’s PK became the first film to collect Rs 300 crore in India and also gross more than Rs 600 crore worldwide. Normally, when an actor delivers two back-to-back mega grossers, the pressure to sign a universally appealing film is huge.
In an interview with national daily Hindustan Times, the megastar was asked if he feels the pressure of delivering a 300 crore grosser with his next release ‘Dangal’.
In response, Aamir said “No.. The death of a creative person is when he or she starts selecting his or her work based on the business of cinema. My film choices only depend on what my heart wants me to do.”
The actor also revealed that ‘Dangal’ is a story about a ex-wrestler who trains his two daughters to become wrestlers. The film will go on floors in September this year and release in theatres during the Christmas 2016 weekend.
wow eagerly waiting for movie it is looking super interesting.
Aamir Ace khan is most creative and most profitable actor at the same time this is amazing record.
Dangal is not a 300cr movie it will bring awards for aamir
If anyone can handle the pressure of audience expectation/ trade hype then it is Aamir khan…! No doubt about it- Dangal I believe will earn 300cr in India- Historic movie on the horizon…!
Aamir khan the greatest actor superstar of all time……another classic dangal is coming..
Aamir posses the quality of “carefull and sound” choices, which is lacking in SK & SRK.
He won’t have any pressure of BO as long as he have choosen a good script. Then he delivers it with a “class acting”, every one knows that.
He has nothing to prove so no question of pressure
aamir is a genius when it comes to selecting scripts and acting..dangal will surely be the best movie of 2016 and 300 cr would still be a low number for an actor of his stature…
300cr?even 100cr will be an achievment for Dangal.
we all know the stardom of Aamir khan.
The big difference between Christmas 2015 and Christmas 2016 is that even Santa will give Christmas a miss this year and wait for the reunion with Aamir next yr…! Dont worry Santa coz I feel billions more may skip the car fetish freak show by shetty this yr and wait for a more peaceful celebration next yr…!
Our king is feeling the pressure to give a 100cr movie with fan a non-festival release
I mean, Indicine, what is the need for this article?
Does this article bore any importance?
Any actor makes a small comment and you publish a full fledged article on that.
You people just want comments on your articles with fans of Actors fighting with each other daily.
Please stop this!
Be more credible.
The reason behind Aamir’s success is his good sense of content selection. otherwise, srk and salman are more popular than him. Hope Dangal continues aamir’s good run.
From the past 4-5 years people have developed a strong perception about Aamir’s movies. They believe their wait to be worthwhile & have something new to watch.
And these are the lessons for SK & SRK.
Pressure?? What pressure? He is the founder of 100,200,300cr clubs..so the pressure is on others…
Don’t see dangal being the type of film to get close to 300cr. anyways the film is two years from releasing so what’s the need to talk about its box office figures
@indicine
dangal is a biopic so do you think that it can do 300cr?
200cr is possible
Aamir script sence decrease completly after 3 idiots.talaash is an average filim,d3 is crapp and again pk is average.
Tzp,lagaan,3i,rdb are outstanding filims,so he become legend.
Now i want to compare akshay with aamir,dont laugh,
omg,spl26,holiday and baby are far ahead than aamirs any movie after 3idiots.akshay’s script sence growing nowdays and aamirs declined.
The difference between SRK and Aamir in recent years is Hirani. 2 of Aamir’s last 4 movies are with Hirani. That Director can give BB(atleast) with any Actor.
srk has more pressure of surpassing kick.
not sure.
as per aamir if movie is non commercial than its clearly visible that he wants to hit maximum numbers thats why he is opting a holiday release.
as non commercial like dhobighat talash fails on normal weekends.
anyways – afterall its aamir’s movie.will watch it in theater.
bhale hi competitor hai srk ka lekin hai a66a actor.
The film will open huge no second thoughts about that..all of aamir Khan’s Christmas release have been blockbuster and more so if the content is appreciated which is mostly the case with aamir Khan’s films,then I feel we may have another blockustr or all time blockbuster…250 crore will also be a very good figure
he is afraiding to do masalaless films.because he always needs collection that’s why he choose a biopic after seen success of bmb/MARY COM.he always interferes his mind in choosing films rather from HEART like KING KHAN.@indicine now a days are praising amir too much even though knowing about his existence with out dhoom/hirani.the same the will do with KING KHAN after ‘DILWALE’.15 FILMFARE IS WAITING FOR KING KHAN IN 2016.yeah one more thing amir was never a competitor to KING KHAN,it’s hr,ranbir,irfan and now a days even hahid/varun but amir he he he he he…
@yubraj salman have more pressure to make prdp hit due to non masala genere.
I think INDICINE is running out of gas !
Also post an article on what food items Aamir eat , does he wear Big Boss / Macroman underwear , and how many times in a day he says to himself , “I AM A PERFECTIONIST !”
lol …
I mean amir was never a competitor to KING KHAN in acting,rofl.
Impossible to enter in 300cr .but the movie is looking great
