Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan is also known as Mr. Perfectionist. Whatever he has achieved today is only because of his own hard work and dedication. The actor has come a long way and people look up to him for inspiration. Fans and audiences are always eager to know about his personal life. However, this can only be possible if Aamir’s biopic is made in the near future. But who will be featured in the titular role? Any guesses? No. Then let’s find out what Aamir feels about his biopic and who can play his role in the film.

The ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ actor feels his son Junaid Khan is the best choice to play him on screen. On Sunday, the actor met a group of journalists at his residence in Mumbai to talk about his production venture ‘Rubaru Roshni’. Helmed by Svati Chakravarty Bhatkal, the documentary film showcases three unbelievable stories of forgiveness.

Talking on the occasion, Aamir said, “We go back a long time. Svati is married to Satya, my friend from school. The two were also witnesses to my marriage with Reena, when we had eloped. It was the most budget-friendly wedding. I think I had spent only Rs 10 on the same. My parents had no clue about it for a long time.”

When Aamir was asked what made him take such a bold step, the actor said, “It’s a very long story. If someday a biopic is made on me, I will share the details then.” And when Aamir was asked who could reprise his role in his biopic, he replied, “I think Junaid can do it. He might be a good choice.”

He further stated that the family is on the lookout for a good script for Junaid Khan’s big Bollywood debut. Aamir said, “He has studied acting and has been doing theatre for more than a year. But I believe in the power of a screen test. So Junaid would have to go through the grind and prove himself. As a father, my only advice to him is that he should play leads but only those that are characters. This is a rule I follow and really believe in. More than being a hero, you need to live a character on screen. That’s the joy of acting.”

“In my three decades in the industry, no fan has ever called out to me by my name in public. It has always been the last character that I have played on screen. I really feel good about it. That shows that my characters have left a mark,” Aamir Khan concluded.

On the work front, Aamir Khan’s last outing ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ failed to leave its mark at the box-office. The movie also featured Katrina Kaif, Amitabh Bachchan and Fatima Sana Shaikh. Presently, the actor is apparently busy with his mega project that is based on the ‘Mahabharata’. It is reportedly being made as a seven-part web series.
