Aamir Khan has praised Salman Khan for his latest film 'Sultan', saying that the "Eid gift" has everything that one can expect from a mainstream movie. He has also said that 'Sultan' can break the record of his own 2014 blockbuster 'pk'.

"I watched 'Sultan' last evening (Wednesday). I found it very good. Ali Abbas Zafar has made a remarkable film. Be it the story, screenplay, dialogue or direction, all are good and every artiste has done well," Aamir told reporters while celebrating Eid with his family.

He added: "Everything is there... what we expect from a mainstream film. I laughed, I cried and enjoyed a lot. It's an Eid gift from Salman. If there is one film which can break the record of 'PK', it is 'Sultan'."

The Yash Raj Films production, which released on Wednesday, earned Rs 36.54 crore on the opening day.

It features Salman in the role of a wrestler.
