Aamir Khan Recalls on Amitabh Bachchan's Dedication to Perfecting Scenes
Aamir Khan recently praised Amitabh Bachchan , highlighting the veteran actor's enduring impact on him. Speaking at a recent ABP summit, Aamir reminisced about an incident from his early days in Bollywood while filming his debut movie " Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak ." He recalled observing Amitabh rehearsing extensively for a scene during a shoot, emphasizing how it left a lasting impression on him.
Aamir Khan Praises Amitabh Bachchan's Work Ethic
Aamir Khan said, "I was shooting for Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak at Film City. I was in the makeup room with my cousins Nusat, Raj Zutshi and Reena (Aamir's ex-wife). Outside the makeup room, the shooting of another film was underway. We could hear an actor rehearsing his lines almost 100,200 times. Intrigued by the actor's dedication , I went outside to discover that the hardworking artist was none other than Amitji (Amitabh Bachchan)."
He added, "At that time, as a newcomer to the industry, witnessing a superstar like Amitji rehearse so extensively, work so diligently, and maintain such focus left a lasting impression on me. It was a long scene and he gave 8 to 10 takes. After the shot concluded, Amit ji approached director Prakash Mehra, seeking feedback: 'Prakash, I didn't speak too fast, did I?' It was a lesson for me that there is no end to rehearse. Even iconic figures like Charlie Chaplin, one of the greatest actors in history, used to rehearse 200 to 300 times. So, I believe in rehearsing and being prepared."
In a recent interview, Aamir Khan opened up about the emotional toll he experienced following the disappointment of his latest movie, "Laal Singh Chaddha," which hit screens in 2022. This film marked the official Hindi remake of the 1994 classic "Forrest Gump," originally starring Tom Hanks. Khan expressed his heartfelt sentiments regarding the film's underwhelming reception, indicating its failure's profound impact on him.
Forrest Gump enjoys status as a Hollywood classic, but Laal Singh Chaddha failed to make waves at the box office. Directed by Advait Chandan and starring Kareena Kapoor Khan as the female lead, the film also featured a significant role for Mona Singh. Aamir Khan is currently occupied with preparations for Sitaare Zameen Par.
