Not so much by design as by default, Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan are on a collision course.So much has been happening between Aamir and Shahrukh in last few months, with Aamir claiming to be the numero uno in Bollywood and SRK humbly accepting the second spot. The good-natured banter between the two took a somewhat ugly turn when Aamir wrote a blog about having a smelly, attention-seeking dog named Shahrukh.
While the two stars claim there is no animosity between them, the competition between the two certainly seems to be heating up.
For Aamir’s upcoming film Ghajini (Hindi) is set to clash with SRK’s next release Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi . But the clash seems more by coincidence than by deliberation.
Initially, ‘Ghajini’ was set to release in October. But then Aamir sustained a hamstring injury while doing a stunt scene and the film’s shooting had to be postponed.
Now, it is learnt that the film will be delayed in its release by over two months. Reports say Aamir is considering a year-end release of the film – December 12, which, coincidentally also happens to be the day when the SRK-starrer ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ will hit the marquee.
Industry insiders believe that if the clash does happen, it will be a very tough battle because ‘Rab Ne’ being Aditya Chopra ’s comeback film as a director has already generated tremendous curiosity among movie buffs. On the other hand, fans are eagerly waiting to see Aamir Khan in action again after the superhit Taare Zameen Par .
“It would be a clash of Bollywood titans,” says a trade analyst.

may be this is co incidence, but surely this time aditya chopra will have to think again about direction, (if it is considered as a war). Audiences are fed up with YRF-KJo-SRK brand films.
audiences realized the goof in OSO, KANK and Tashan. on the other hand aamir has proved his talent through his directorial debut TZP, without much media hype and blah blah.
definately aamir is not at the place where he supposed to write such blogs.
