When Shah Rukh Khan teased Aamir Khan over a cup of tea: "Kal bata dena yaar...."

Shah Rukh Khan's Hilarious Tease of Aamir Khan's Tea Obsession

For over three decades, Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan have reigned supreme in Bollywood. Beyond the professional competition, a genuine friendship exists between the two superstars. They consistently support each other, yet also enjoy playful banter.

In a 2013 interview, Shah Rukh Khan humorously addressed Aamir Khan's meticulous work ethic, even when it came to his tea.

The Tale of the Tea

Shah Rukh Khan recounted a flight where Aamir Khan ordered tea with milk, while he opted for black coffee. According to Shah Rukh, Aamir meticulously instructed the steward to wait until the tea had reached the perfect color before adding milk.

Expanding on the anecdote, Shah Rukh Khan joked that if Aamir Khan visited his home and took an excessive amount of time deciding between tea and coffee, he would quip, "Let me know tomorrow, and we'll go out until then."

He added, "I’m yet to meet a person who is so conscientious and seriously conscientious about his work," praising Aamir's dedication.

A Bond of Mutual Respect

Despite never starring together in a film, Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan hold each other in high regard.

Shah Rukh Khan made a cameo appearance in Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chaddha in 2022. "Shah Rukh is a friend, and I told him that I needed someone who could represent what Elvis represented in America and is the biggest iconic star in India, which is why I'm coming to you," Aamir explained during the film's promotion.

This friendship, characterized by humor and respect, offers a glimpse into the camaraderie between two of Bollywood's most celebrated figures.
