Amid the war of words between the three Khans - Aamir, Shah Rukh and Salman - the Ghajini star Aamir has declared that it is none other than superstar Amitabh Bachchan who is still the number one in Bollywood.
“For me Amitabh Bachchan is No 1. Do Lata Mangeshkar, Sachin Tendulkar and Amitabh Bachchan say they are number one? No one who sits on the top needs to say he is number one. Others keep claiming to be there,” said Aamir. Recently, Shah Rukh sparked a controversy by proclaiming himself the biggest brand and saying there cannot be any competition with him. Commenting on that Aamir said: “I don’t believe in competitions with others. I only compete with myself.”After a phase of cold war with his contemporary Shah Rukh, Aamir says he can’t dare to fight with him.”Do you think I could dare to fight with Shah Rukh. He is a good friend and so I can’t fight with him. I respect him a lot,” said Aamir, who was in capital over the weekend to promote his forthcoming film Ghajini.

Madhavan and Sharman Joshi. But I think Shah Rukh, Salman and I are truly the three idiots of Bollywood,” Aamir said.He also cast a dig at Salman when he asked the crowd whether they want him to flaunt his body that he has toned up especially for Ghajini.”Who wants to see my eight packs?” he asked. But when there was a loud “Yes, we want to” from the audience, Aamir said: “Only Salman can show his packs. I can’t do it. It’s not my cup of tea.”
Boney Kapoor had to arrange a special chartered plane for Salman to help him get back to Mumbai from Greece for the shoot of Veer.

Our source tells us, “Director of the film, Prabhu Deva had headed back home after shooting one song on the film’s lead pair, Salman and Ayesha as his son that time was seriously ill. He had given the responsibility of shooting two more songs to his elder brother, choreographer Raju Sundaram. They were being shot on three beautiful islands of Greece – Rhodos, Santorini and Paros. After the final song was shot in Paros, the weather suddenly became very inclement and threw the aircraft and sea schedules in a complete disarray. Salman was in a hurry to head back to Athens from Paros but just could because of the heavy backlog traffic. Sets of Salman’s Veer had been put up in Mumbai’s Filmcity and Miss Universe UK Liza Lazarus too had arrived to shoot for a song number with him. Salman was losing his nerve every single passing hour. Boney then came to his help and got a chartered flight booked for him on the morning of December 5th.
