Last month, a picture of Pushpa 2 star Allu Arjun with Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan broke the Internet. Arjun was seen at Aamir鈥檚 residence in Mumbai, and the candid photo of them smiling and posing together sparked speculation about a potential collaboration between the two. Since then, fans have been wondering whether the two actors are set to team up soon. Now, a month later, Aamir Khan has finally reacted to the viral photo, revealing that they often meet whenever they are in the same city.
During a chat with Pinkvilla, Aamir Khan was shown old photos, prompting him to reflect on the memories associated with them. When presented with a collage of both old and recent pictures featuring him and Allu Arjun, Aamir expressed surprise. Discussing the recent photo, he mentioned it was taken the previous month. Upon learning that the image had fueled online rumours of their collaboration, Aamir revealed that they often meet whenever they are in the same city. Aamir spoke highly of Arjun, admiring his acting talent, and noted that they make an effort to catch up whenever possible, whether in Mumbai or Hyderabad.

Reflecting on the old photo, Aamir recalled that it was taken during the filming of Ghajini, produced by Arjun鈥檚 father, Allu Aravind. This meeting occurred around the time of Ghajini鈥檚 release in 2008, a film featuring Aamir Khan and Asin, directed by A R Murugadoss, which became one of Aamir鈥檚 most successful movies. 鈥淕hajini was produced by Arjun鈥檚 father.
