It is now official that Aamir and Shah Rukh, the two reigning Khans of Bollywood, have a love-hate relationship.

The two love to take digs at each other publicly and then blame the media and the fans for blowing their spats out of proportion, and yet they are also capable of coming together and sharing a stage when it comes to a serious issue like the producers’ strike.

The latest in their turbulent friendship is that Aamir Khan reportedly wants his next film 3 Idiots to clash with the SRK starrer My Name is Khan.

According to sources, Rajkumar Hirani, the director of 3 Idiots, is not keen to take on the intimidating trio of SRK, Kajol and Karan Johar, especially since this is the long awaited on-screen reunion of SRK and Kajol, easily one of Bollywood’s best loved couples.

However, Aamir is determined, and sources even say that he may have deliberately taken a holiday with his kids in order to delay the film.
