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.
