Salman Khan left no stones unturned in pulling Aamir Khan's leg at the premiere of Sitaare Zameen Par. The Bollywood superstar jokingly claimed that Aamir had initially offered him the film's script before deciding to do it himself. "Tab iska paperwork pe kaam chal raha tha," said Salman.

According to a report by NDTV, Salman Khan said at the screening, "Isne story nahi bataayi na picture ki? (Has he revealed the story?) "Isne mere ko bulaya tha ye subject dekhne ke liye... (He called me to see the subject). main chala gaya mujhe bahut achi lagi picture... (I saw it) maine haan bhi keh di... mere ko phone aata hai ki, 'main kar raha hu picture.' Maine itni tareef kari ye picture ke baare mein ki Aamir main phaad dunga iss picture mein (I said "Yes" to the film. Then I got the call that he's doing the film)."

"Isne bhi bola mere ko bhi ye picture bahut achi lagi par uss waqt ye kaam nahi kar raha tha, uss waqt thoda sa load tha... scripting... paperwork pe kaam chal raha tha iska uss waqt (Aamir also said he liked the film but he was not working back then. Some paperworks were going on at the time)," said the actor.

Salman went on to state, "Isne mujhe bola tha ki main pehle kar chuka hu yaar ye tere ko suit karega... (Aamir said he has done a similar character before, so he would suit the part)."

Aamir also hit back, "Aisa ho sakta ki wo haan bole aur main beech mein aaun? (If he had already said yes to it, can I oppose to that)?"
