The dominance of Bollywood's 'Three Khans'—Shah Rukh, Salman, and Aamir—has been a significant aspect of the industry for decades. A discussion sparked once again regarding whether the era of these superstars is coming to an end, especially after a famous post-credits scene from the film 'Pathaan' where Salman and Shah Rukh jokingly stated that they cannot leave it to the 'kids' (young actors). Aamir Khan, often called 'Mr. Perfectionist,' has shared his thoughts on this viral moment.

In an exclusive interview with Variety, Aamir talked about that specific scene in 'Pathaan' where characters Tiger and Pathan discuss their successors. He humorously admitted that he has not seen the film, but watched the scene on YouTube and found it very funny. Aamir noted that while the scene is about the film, it also reflects a playful take on the real-life dynamics within Bollywood regarding the transition from established superstars to the new generation of actors.

Aamir took the opportunity to commend the young talents like Ranbir Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, and Ranveer Singh, asserting that they are not only talented but also surpass him in their skills. This endorsement from one of Bollywood's stalwarts highlights the shifting landscape of the industry, where new actors are increasingly being embraced and recognized for their contributions, potentially signaling a revitalization of Bollywood's star system beyond the traditional Khan trio.
