Aamir Khan struggled for a success since 2016
For those who aren’t aware, Aamir is the one who inaugurated the 100 crore club for Bollywood. He was also the first actor to deliver the first 200 crore and 300 crore net grossers in the Hindi film industry. Despite being such a powerful force, the superstar was totally out of form in the last few years. In fact, his last successful film came in 2016.
Before Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir Khan tasted his last success 8 years back, with Dangal. As we all know, Dangal was an all-time blockbuster, with a net collection of over 350 crores. After Dangal, he failed miserably with Thugs Of Hindostan in 2018 and Laal Singh Chaddha in 2022. Finally, he got his much-awaited success with his latest comedy-drama.
