The first confrontation at the ticket window occurred in 1990, when Aamir Khan’s Dil and Sunny Deol’s Ghayal were both released on the same day. Then, in 1996, there was Raja Hindustani against Ghatak, followed by the most epic box office duel in 2001, when Lagaan debuted on the same day as Gadar.
Now, for the first time, the two have collaborated on a project. Lahore 1947 also marks Aamir and Rajkumar Santoshi’s reunion following their cult masterpiece Andaz Apna Apna.
