Who wouldn't want to see Shah Rukh, Salman and Aamir together in a film? Every few months there is a rumour about Salman and Shah Rukh coming together again or there's talk about all the three Khans featuring in one film.
SRK has finally opened up about the idea of working with Salman and Aamir. In a recent interview with the Hindustan Times, he said, "We meet each other and talk a lot, but we have never spoken about films."
"One day, Salman cracked a joke. He said, 'Guys, we three won’t do a film together. We will only end up fighting. One will keep using his brains, another will finish the work quickly, and someone will not reach the sets on time.' So, we discuss stuff like this," he added.
Director and choreographer Farah Khan had once said no one can bring the three Khans together. Commenting on her statement, SRK said, "That’s not true. I think it’s difficult to do a three-hero film, especially when all the three heroes are leading mainstream actors."

"A lot of times, it gets difficult to make a film with even two smaller heroes, as both think of themselves as stars (smiles). In this case, the three of us are actually stars," he added.
"But, I feel, it might not be a problem. All three of us are humble enough to understand that we are doing a film [together]. We have to choose a film in which all three of us are equal," he further explained.
"We should do [a film like] Ghostbusters (1984). That film has equal roles for all the three heroes," he quipped.
King Khan didn't rule out the possibility of the three teaming up for a film. He said, "If required, we can work on that. Salman recently said that there won’t be enough money [to make such a big film]. Maybe, we can co-produce the film. But someone has to write an interesting script that we like."
"The three of us don’t exist because we should be in cinema together. Instead, we exist because we should be in cinema," he added.
SRK -- who has gone through multiple injuries throughout his career -- also said that "injuries are like my hits".
"There have been too many of both (laughs). This [knee injury] is recurring. I first got hurt [on my knee] during Koyla (1997), then again during the filming of another movie. Then, during Happy New Year (2014), a door on the set fell on me. That’s when my knee got hurt again.

"In Fan, there is a lot of running around and Raees has several action sequences. So, I guess my knee is just not getting a chance to get better. All the surgeries I have got done have been successful. Only my knee surgeries have been unsuccessful," he said.
SRK disclosed that he will be undergoing another surgery soon: "I think I will have to go for a major surgery now. Till that time, I have to make do with a minor one, so that I am able to finish my films. There is a chance that I can avoid it (the major surgery) for three to four years. If I can’t, then after February, I will think about it."
Shah Rukh's fans are aware that he has been writing an autobiography for the longest time and are eagerly waiting for it to be published. "Every time I think I will publish it, I find something amiss or something new. It could be a new failure or a new success that makes me feel, 'I should write about this too'. So, it is kind of complete, but still incomplete. I don’t know when I’ll publish it, or if I ever will.

"I thought I will publish it when I turn 50, but I don’t want to rush into it. I love the idea of writing and keeping a record somewhere, at least for my kids."
