SRK's father once lost the election to Aamir's great-uncle

Taj Mohammed Khan failed to secure any votes

According to a study from 2024 Amar Ujala Azad reportedly won the 1957 Lok Sabha elections from Gurgaon with 191,221 votes.

His opponent from the Bharatiya Jana Sangh (BJS), Moolchand, received 95,553 votes.

What is striking about this election, however, is that independent candidate Taj Mohammed Khan did not receive a single vote, which is a unique record in Indian electoral history.

Internet users reacted to the surprising revelation

The Reddit post has since sparked numerous reactions from internet users.

One user humorously commented, “The rivalry between these two (Shah Rukh and Aamir) existed before they were even born. Now I know why they don't like each other.”

Another user quipped: “So the rivalry is a generational rivalry… wow (Wow).”

These comments refer to the long-standing rumours of a cold war between SRK and Aamir.
