Why Aamir Khan Movies Are Always Worth Watching
Aamir Khan has delivered some of Indian cinema's most memorable films across three decades — from the laugh-out-loud Andaz Apna Apna to the emotionally charged Taare Zameen Par, the sports triumph of Dangal to the thought-provoking PK. If there's one thing his career proves, it's that a great story, told well, never gets old. And this June, there's even more reason to revisit his work: Lagaan returns to theatres June 12-14 for its 25th anniversary, while his upcoming films like the Rajkumar Hirani project and Batwara (formerly Lahore 1947) generate fresh buzz. Here's our pick of the best Aamir Khan movies streaming right now on OTT platforms in India.
1. Dangal (2016)
Streaming on: Netflix | IMDb: 8.3 | Director: Nitesh Tiwari
Dangal is more than a movie — it's a phenomenon. Aamir Khan plays Mahavir Singh Phogat, a former wrestler who trains his daughters Geeta and Babita to become world-class wrestlers. Based on a true story, the film became the highest-grossing Indian film ever at the time of its release, earning over ₹2,000 crore worldwide. What makes Dangal special is how it balances a deeply personal father-daughter story with a broader message about breaking gender barriers in rural India. The wrestling sequences are gripping, the performances are career-defining (Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra as the grown-up sisters are brilliant), and the climax at the Commonwealth Games still gives goosebumps no matter how many times you watch it. It's a film that makes you feel proud — of the athletes, of the country, and of cinema itself. If you watch only one Aamir Khan film, make it this one.
2. PK (2014)
Streaming on: Netflix | IMDb: 8.1 | Director: Rajkumar Hirani
What happens when an alien lands on Earth and starts asking innocent questions about God, religion, and humanity? You get PK — a film that made audiences laugh, cry, and think in equal measure. Aamir Khan's performance as the naive, wide-eyed PK is one of his most physically committed roles — watch the way he holds his eyes open without blinking, the meticulous body language of someone who doesn't know how the human world works. The film sparked genuine national conversations about blind faith and religious dogma, all while being an entertaining romp across India with Anushka Sharma, Sushant Singh Rajput, and Boman Irani. It's the kind of satire that reminds you why cinema matters.
3. 3 Idiots (2009)
Streaming on: Not currently streaming in India (available in Japan on Netflix) | IMDb: 8.4 | Director: Rajkumar Hirani
3 Idiots is the highest-rated Indian film on IMDb for good reason. Aamir Khan plays Rancho, a free-thinking engineering student who challenges the rote-learning education system and inspires his friends Farhan (R. Madhavan) and Raju (Sharman Joshi) to follow their passions. The film's message — "Chase excellence, success will follow" — has resonated with millions of students and professionals worldwide. Kareena Kapoor, Boman Irani, and Omi Vaidya (as the unforgettable Chatur) round out a cast that fires on all cylinders. While 3 Idiots isn't currently streaming in India, it's well worth renting or buying on digital platforms — a film this timeless earns its place on any list.
4. Rang De Basanti (2006)
Streaming on: Amazon Prime Video, JioHotstar (free with ads) | IMDb: 8.1 | Director: Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra
A film that redefined what a Bollywood movie could be. Rang De Basanti intercuts the story of young revolutionaries in British India with a group of modern Delhi college students who are cast to play them in a film — and slowly begin to channel that same revolutionary spirit. Aamir Khan's Daljeet is the moral anchor of the film, a quietly powerful performance that holds together a sprawling ensemble cast. The film's second half, triggered by a real-life tragedy, packs an emotional punch that stays with you long after the credits roll. The soundtrack ("Roobaroo," "Khoon Chala," "Paathshaala") is legendary. Rang De Basanti is streaming now on Amazon Prime Video — catch it before it leaves the platform.
5. Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India (2001)
Theatrical re-release: June 12-14, 2026 (25th anniversary) | IMDb: 8.1 | Director: Ashutosh Gowariker
Lagaan is an epic — literally and emotionally. Set in 1893, the film follows a village that challenges British colonisers to a cricket match to avoid paying oppressive taxes. Aamir Khan's Bhuvan is one of Hindi cinema's most beloved protagonists: stubborn, charismatic, and fiercely protective of his community. The nearly four-hour runtime flies by — and the climactic cricket match is one of the most nerve-wracking sequences ever filmed in Indian cinema. Nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, Lagaan is currently returning to theatres on June 12-14 for its 25th anniversary, with Aamir Khan and the entire cast reuniting for celebrations.

What's Next for Aamir Khan
The buzz around Aamir Khan right now is extraordinary. He has an upcoming collaboration with Rajkumar Hirani, the team behind PK and 3 Idiots. Then there's Batwara (formerly Lahore 1947) with Sunny Deol — in the news this week as Aamir's personal meeting with Salim Akhtar's family helped shape the script. And most personally significant: Aamir Khan confirmed his wedding to Gauri Spratt on July 5, which has fans everywhere sending their best wishes. It's an exciting time to be an Aamir Khan fan — and there's never been a better time to revisit his incredible body of work.
