Bollywood actor Aamir Khan has showered praises on Salman Khan and called him number one box office star.
"I feel Salman is ahead of me. Considering the way his recent release Bodyguard has broken all box office records if anyone, who is a number one box office star, then it is Salman," Aamir told reporters in Mumbai last night, after launching the music of Sunil Bohra's forthcoming film, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster.
"He has proved with this movie that he is ahead of all of us. I am happy and my best wishes are always with him," he said.
Salman and Kareena Kapoor starrer Bodyguard that released on Eid, surpassed box office records of 3 Idiots and My Name is Khan. Salman was in the US for a nerve surgery when the movie received such a massive opening.
"I had a word with him and his health is much better now. I had given the news of massive opening of Rs21 crore. I had sent a text to Alvira and asked her to pass the message to Salman after the surgery. I wanted to be the first one to give him the good news," Aamir said.
Even though Aamir and Salman have worked together for Andaz Apna Apna, the two stars have expressed their desire to work together time and again.
"I would love to work with Salman...we have a good tuning and it will be fun working together. But till we get a good script or something that excites us we will not come together for a film," Aamir said.
About his friend Sunil Bohra's film, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Aamir said, "I am here to give my best wishes to him and the team. The title of the film is nice and the promo and characters look interesting."
