It's Aamir Khan's birthday today. The charming actor turns 56, a handsome 56 we must say. Aamir is a fitness freak but would go to any extent to transform for any role that he picks. He will beef up if the character demands and tone down for the character if needed. Aamir loves to bring life to the character so that the audience feel that he is real. In fact, he is the only actor who demands a complete and refined script before signing any project. And hence, he has been called a perfectionist. Due to this characteristic of the actor, he has been delivering some phenomenal stories and winning hearts. It was Aamir Khan who gave Bollywood the first Rs 100 crore film. Let's check out how Aamir Khan broke records after records of his own films thus making him the king of the box office.
Ghajini
A remake of AR Murgadoss's Tamil film of the same name, Ghajini was the first film to make Rs 100 Crore at the domestic box office. It paved the way for the Rs 100 Crore club in the Hindi film industry. Aamir Khan's portrayal of Sanjay Singhania, the dashing businessman and later an anterograde amnesia patient was on point. The action-thriller is still a hit amongst the masses. Aamir's chemistry with Asin who played Kalpana to his Sanjay won several hearts.
3 Idiots
Aamir Khan broke Ghajini's box office record with his next, 3 Idiots. A coming-of-age film co-starring Sharman Joshi and R Madhavan in the lead as well, 3 Idiots is one of the most loved films in the Hindi Film industry. 3 Idiots did the business of Rs 200+ crores thus breaking Ghajini's BO record. The storyline, the characters, the emotions, the humour, everything was very well portrayed in the film.
Dhoom 3
In 2013, Aamir Khan played the lead antagonist in Dhoom 3. It starred Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra as the criminal chasers. Katrina Kaif played the lead opposite Aamir Khan. The latter played a double role in the film. Dhoom 3 earned Rs 250+ at the domestic box office. And with that, the actor broke his own record of 3 Idiots. The high-octane action sequences and the build-up in Dhoom 3 were just fantastic.
PK
The following year, Aamir Khan's PK released which also stars Anushka Sharma and Sushant Singh Rajput. The film was embroiled in controversy as it had a strong religious context in it. However, the majority of the audience loved the film. Also, for the first Aamir Khan played an extra-terrestrial being, an alien. Back in 2014, PK became the highest-grossing film of the year. It did a business of more than Rs 300+ crore at the domestic box office and thus Aamir broke the record of Dhoom 3. PK remains the 5th highest-grossing film in India.

Well, it remains to be seen if it's true. But everyone has pinned high hopes on Laal Singh Chaddha after Thugs of Hindostan's debacle. Laal Singh Chaddha also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan.
