Mumbai: Ajay Devgn’s cop universe ‘Singham Again’ and Kartik Aaryan’s horror comedy ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ clashed at the box-office after being released during Diwali.
Both films left cash registers ringing and have crossed the Rs 200-crore mark, but the battle to emerge winner is still on.
Amid this box-office tussle, Bollywood’s Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan praised Kartik’s horror comedy and stated that the makers of ‘Singham Again’ made a mistake by releasing their film with ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.’
In a short video clip which has gone viral, Aamir is seen talking to ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ director Anees Bazmee. “Unhone apki Bhool Bhulaiyaa se takkar leke galti kardi (they made a mistake by taking on your Bhool Bhulaiya).” Aamir says.
