Aamir Khan Explains Why Baahubali 2 And Dangal Shouldn't Be Compared

  • Aamir Khan Explains Why Baahubali 2 And Dangal Shouldn't Be Compared
Superstar Aamir Khan says it's unfair to compare his film "Dangal" with S.S. Rajamouli's "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion" -- both of which have crossed collections of Rs 1500 crore at the box office worldwide -- as both of them have their own space.
 
"I am really happy that 'Dangal' is getting appreciated in China and all over the world. I don't think we should compare two films. 'Baahubali 2' is a very successful film.
 
I haven't watched it yet but I am hearing a lot of good stuff about it from everyone around me. I would like to congratulate Rajamouli and his entire team," Aamir said here on Wednesday.
 
"I feel we shouldn't make a comparison between 'Dangal' and 'Baahubali 2' because both films are good in their own space and above all both films are Indian films which are making its mark all over the world. I am very proud of 'Baahubali' as well," he added on the sidelines of the grand premiere of Sachin Tendulkar's "Sachin: A Billion Dreams".
 
"Dangal" got a new lease of life after it released in China a few weeks ago. Aamir is a popular Bollywood face in China thanks to the success of "3 Idiots" and "PK".
