Aamir Khan and Madhuri Dixit's hit film 'Dil' completed 31 years on Tuesday. The film revolved around Aamir and Madhuri as the leading pair who fell in love with each other and their struggles to be together.

The prank had left Madhuri angry and she ran after Aamir with a hockey stick. She confirmed this in a Twitter Q&A session in 2016 with her fans that it was the naughtiest thing she ever did on a film set. “The naughtiest thing I have done is I have chased Aamir Khan with a hockey stick on my sets of 'Dil' because he played a prank on me,” the actor wrote.
