Aamir Khan says he did not direct any film after 'Taare Zameen Par' because he loves acting a lot

Aamir Khan , the 'Perfectionist' of Bollywood, has been a prolific actor in the entertainment industry who dares to bring new perspectives and not-so-explored ideas to the silver screen for many years. Aamir Khan won't direct because he loves acting... In an interview with Pinkvilla, when asked about why the 60-year-old has not explored being a filmmaker after directing the blockbuster 'Taare Zameen Par,' Khan responded by stating that he prefers acting. 'The reason that I have not directed a film since Taare Zameen Par is because I love acting a lot,' Aamir said. Furthermore, the 'Lagaan' actor said that if he were to start directing films, he would simply leave acting. Khan perceives that being a director or filmmaker of the project is so much more interesting than acting could make him feel bored. 'Mai uss type ka aadmi hun ki agar main bore ho raha hun toh main kaam nahi kar paata (I'm that type of person that if I get bored, I cannot work),' the actor claimed. When Aamir directed the 2007 film, it was not because of his willingness but a necessity. Previously, he had no intention of directing the film, but there was a crisis, leading him to take the film into his own hands. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Additionally, Khan stated that if he were to ever direct a film again, he would not engage himself in the acting business.

He trains the players with intellectual disabilities to compete in the National Basketball Tournament, embarking on a journey of personal growth and learning valuable lessons. According to ETimes review of the film, 'If Taare Zameen Par had the soul, Sitaare Zameen Par brings the spirit. It's a heartwarming family watch that blends comedy, compassion, and charm, and is definitely worth a trip to the theatre.'

Ali Fazal on playing Guddu Bhaiya; Found it easier to give gaalis in 'Mirzapur'

Ali Fazal's role as Guddu Bhaiya in 'Mirzapur' challenged him to adopt a new persona, influenced by his nervousness on set. His authentic portrayal, aided by studying local nuances, earned global recognition, especially among the Indian diaspora. Despite the show's harsh language, Ali used few abusive words himself. Ali Fazal who started his career with a small role in the film 'The Other End of the Line' has gone on to make his mark on television and international cinema. In a recent interview, Ali opened up about how his character Guddu Bhaiya from 'Mirzapur' became famous worldwide and how his own nervousness influenced the way he acted. The Challenge of Portraying Guddu Bhaiya Speaking to Bollywood Bubbles, Ali Fazal revealed that playing Guddu Bhaiya in 'Mirzapur' was a significant challenge for him. He explained that the role required a transformation unlike anything he had done before, as it was very different from his own personality and the characters people usually see him portray. To prepare for the part, Ali immersed himself in understanding the local people and their surroundings. He credited the show's writer and director, Puneet Krishna , for creating an authentic world that greatly helped him. He shared, 'I used to take notes—like the pronunciation marks, intonations, and those little linguistic nuances, which are very important, because every region has its way of speaking.' Global Recognition and Audience Impact Ali reflected on the widespread global popularity of his character Guddu Bhaiya, saying, 'It feels nice, I mean that you've reached people.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending Local Enterprise Accounting Software [Click Here] Accounting ERP Click Here Undo He mentioned that in India, it seemed like almost everyone with a mobile phone had watched the show, even if not on TV. Sharing his experience from a recent trip to New York, Ali revealed that he was recognized 90% of the time he went out, either for his role in 'Victoria and Abdul' or 'Mirzapur'. He added, 'People only had two things to talk about, and you also realise how massive our NRI audience is, how strongly it functions globally.' On Using 'Gaalis' in Mirzapur When questioned about how easy it was for him to use abusive language or "gaalis," Ali clarified, 'Listen, to be honest, more than me, the other character actors were the ones who were using gaalis. In fact, in season 2, I didn't use a single gaali. But I just didn't need to—season 1 had enough of that. People didn't even realise.' On whether delivering such lines comes naturally to him, he laughed and said, 'Nahi aajati hai (laughs) abh mahaul hi aisa hai. Itna kehna kaafi hai.' A Defining Moment on Set The actor recalled a memorable moment from the 'Mirzapur' set that he will always cherish. On his very first day of shooting a classroom scene at Gajomal College, he felt intense nervousness despite all his preparation. He wasn't sure if he was ready for the role or if he looked the part. To overcome his insecurity and appear more intimidating, he unconsciously changed his walk and posture. Ali explained, 'That posture, that vibe, it all came from that one moment. '
