Paresh Rawal is among the few actors who have been active in the industry for decades. The actor has worked with almost everyone, including all the '90s Superstars.

The Hera Pheri actor praised both actors for their unique approach to the characters and revealed how both have very contrasting working styles. Paresh Rawal mentioned that Salman Khan flows with ease and doesn't take much time to get into the character. He said, "Salman understands a scene on a gut level. He is such a charming fellow. On screen, he is magic. When he comes on set, he doesn’t have to work too hard. He just flows with it.”

The 70-year-old underlined that Aamir Khan works a lot on his characters and invests considerable time to get into the depth, while Salman Khan is like a breeze. “Aamir has to work around and know things in depth and detail. That is why Aamir sahab thoda time lete hai (that is why Aamir takes more time while shooting). Meanwhile, Salman is hawa ka jhoka, kab aaya, udake ke le gaya, pata bhi nahi chalta (Salman is like breeze, you don’t even realise when he arrives and sweeps everything away with him),” added Paresh Rawal.
