‘Andaz Apna Apna’ re-released in theatres on April 25 in a brand-new 4K remastered version. Moreover, enhancing the cinematic experience, the visuals will be accompanied by enhanced Dolby 5.1 sound. The film focuses on two charming but cunning men who vie to win over an heiress in hopes of inheriting her staggering fortune. However, matters soon escalate and they turn her protectors from a criminal. Elevating the plot is an identity swap between two key characters. Brimming with comic misunderstandings, the title is among classic fan favourites. The screenplay of ‘Andaz Apna Apna’ was inspired by the 1972 film ‘Victoria No. 203.’

Meanwhile, alongside Aamir and Salman, the film also stars Raveena Tandon, Karisma Kapoor, Paresh Rawal, and Shakti Kapoor.

In related news, Salman’s recent flick ‘Sikandar’ witnessed an underwhelming box office collection. AR Murugadoss helmed the actioner while Sajid Nadiadwala backed the title. The film also stars Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Sharman Joshi, Prateik Smita Patil, and Sathyaraj in key roles. On the other hand, Aamir is currently working on ‘Sitaare Zameen Par.’ The film is reportedly a spin-off of the hit ‘Taare Zameen Par.’
