In terms of worldwide collection, Dangal became the second Indian movie to have surpassed the coveted Rs 1000 mark after Baahubali 2, who redefined history at the box office.
Ahead of the film's release in Christmas last year, the 51-year-old actor had said that he doesn't measure success by awards or box office crores. But Dangal seems to have performed well on both fronts - it won the Filmfare Award and its box office scores are off the roof.
This year, Dangal opened the Beijing Film Festival in China and later released as Shuai Jiao Baba, which translates in English as 'Let's Wrestle, Dad.' Aamir Khan co-stars with Fatima Sana Shaikh, Sanya Malhotra and TV star Sakshi Tanwar in Dangal, which is directed by Nitesh Tiwari and based on Haryanvi wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat.
