Aamir-Sunny maiden collaboration

This is the first time that both actors have collaborated together. Both actors worked with Santoshi on separate projects. Raj Kumar Santoshi and Sunny Deol earlier gave massive hits like "Ghayal", "Ghatak", and "Damini", while Khan worked with Santoshi in the cult comedy "Andaz Apna Apna." 

Sunny Deol's comeback with Gadar 2

Sunny Deol made his comeback in Bollywood with the Blockbuster movie Gadar 2. Gadar 2 became the highest-grossing movie for the actor as it collected more than 525 crore at the box office. The movie then became the highest-grossing Hindi movie in India crossing Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan. However, the movie lost the tag later as SRK's recent movie Jawan became the highest-grossing Hindi movie in India. 

On the other end, Aamir Khan's last movie "Laal Singh Chaddha" failed to perform at the box office. However, the movie received applause after being released on Netflix. The movie was the Hindi adaptation of the Hollywood movie Forrest Gump.
