Aamir Khan’s clash with Akshay, Hrithik averted, ‘Dangal’ to release in Christmas

One of the most anticipated films of this year is Aamir Khan‘s ‘Dangal’ directed by Nitesh Tiwari. He will step into the shoes of a wrestler for the film and will showcase his acting prowess by being a father of a girl who will fulfill his dream. With a storyline revolving around the subject of women empowerment, Aamir had once expressed his wish to release this film around Independence Day in the month of August, but he has now confirmed that the film will only hit the theatres in the month of December.

During the press meet organised on his birthday, Aamir confirmed that ‘Dangal’ will release as per schedule in the month of December. All the rumours about the film releasing in August are false, as by then the film will still be in its making phase. There were reports which stated that Aamir has decided to release his film in August and this would have led to a clash between Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar and Hrithik Roshan. Akshay’s ‘Rustom’ and Hrithik’s ‘Mohenjo Daro’ both are set to release on August 12. So if Aamir would have released his film on the same day then it would be three superstars clashing at the box office. Thankfully, this clash has been averted with Mr Perfectionist confirming his fascination with Christmas release.

Apart from that, Aamir also revealed how he underwent a physical transformation for ‘Dangal’. He went down from 95 kg to  82 kg in just three weeks and is still on the path of reducing weight to acquire his ‘Ghajini’ avatar. For this, he even had to give up on his Vegan diet which he had been following for a year or so.
