Aamir Khan shares experience of sharing screen space with thespian Amitabh Bachchan

After working in Bollywood for over three decades and starring in a string of blockbuster movies, superstar Aamir Khan finally got a chance to share the screen space with the star of the millennium, Amitabh Bachchan, in Yash Raj Films’ forthcoming flick Thugs Of Hindostan.

Khan, who was last seen in Secret Superstar (2017), has been a huge fan of Mr. Bachchan for a long time. So, when he got an opportunity to work the megastar, he could not handle the fanboy in him.


“I have been a huge, huge fan of Mr. Bachchan all along. The first day of rehearsals when we were sitting and reading scenes together... it was a fanboy moment for me,” said Mr. Perfectionist.

“I couldn’t speak properly, I couldn’t remember my lines, I was going all over the place. It has been a real joy for me that every day that I have sat next to him while we were shooting,” added Khan.

Also starring Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh, Thugs Of Hindostan is slated to roll into cinemas on 7th November 2018.

Highlights:

  • Government to criminalise porn that shows strangulation or suffocation during sex.
  • Part of wider plan to fight violence against women and online harm.
  • Tech firms will be forced to block such content or face heavy Ofcom fines.
  • Experts say the ban responds to medical evidence and years of campaigning.

You see it everywhere now. In mainstream pornography, a man’s hands around a woman’s neck. It has become so common that for many, especially the young, it just seems like part of sex, a normal step. The UK government has decided it should not be, and soon, it will be a crime.

The plan is to make possessing or distributing pornographic material that shows sexual strangulation, often called ‘choking’, illegal. This is a specific amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. Ministers are acting on the back of a stark, independent review. That report found this kind of violence is not just available online, but it is rampant. It has quietly, steadily, become normalised.
