It was long being speculated if Aamir Khan will feature in the remake of the Spanish film 'Campeones' titled 'Champions'. And with Aamir's latest media interaction, the actor has cleared the air and has revealed that he will be associated with the film in the capacity of a producer and not as an actor. He also revealed that he is taking a break from acting for the first time in 35 years to spend time with his family and kids.

During a recent media interaction in Delhi, Khan said, "When I am doing a film as an actor, I get so lost in that that nothing else happens in my life. I was supposed to do a film after Laal Singh Chaddha called Champions. It's a wonderful script, a beautiful story, and it's a very heartwarming and lovely film. But I feel that I want to take a break, be with my family, with my mom, my kids"

"I feel like I have been working for 35 years and I feel I have been single-mindedly focused on my work… And I feel it’s not fair to the people who are close to me. It’s not fair to me also in many ways. This is the time for me… to experience life in a different way,"&nbsp;the 57-year-old star added.

Speaking about his future plans, he shared, "I’m looking forward to the next year, a year and a half in which I’m not actually working as an actor for the first time."

Commenting on his association with the upcoming film 'Champions', he stated, "I’ll work as a producer on ‘Champions’ because I really believe in the film. I’ll approach other actors now to see if they are interested to do the role that I was hoping to do. I’m at that stage in my life where I want to enjoy my relationships."

Aamir 'shocked' by 'Laal Singh Chaddha's BO performance, distributors seek monetary compensation: Report

On Friday, a Delhi-based lawyer lodged a complaint against Bollywood actor Aamir Khan, Paramount Pictures and a few others for allegedly "disrespecting the Indian Army and hurting Hindu Sentiments " in the latest film 'Laal Singh Chaddha'. The complaint was filed with Delhi Police commissioner Sanjay Arora.

In his complaint, advocate Vineet Jindal alleged that the film had objectionable content and hurt Hindu sentiments. Jindal&nbsp;sought registration of an FIR under sections 153, 153A, 298 and 505 of the IPC against the makers and lead cast of the film.

A part of the complaint read, "In the movie, the makers have depicted that a mentally challenged person was allowed to join Army to fight in the Kargil War. It is a well-known fact that the best army personnel were sent to fight the Kargil war and rigorously trained army personnel fought the war but the movie makers intentionally depicted the said situation to demoralise and defame the Indian army."&nbsp;

Jindal also objected to a scene where Laal Singh Chaddha (played by Aamir Khan) says, "My mother said all this puja paath is malaria. It causes riots."

"The contents of the statement made by the accused 'Puja path is malaria, it causes riots', is quite aggravating and a defamatory statement aimed at the whole Hindu community," Jindal claimed.

"This statement shows his intent of waging war and activating enmity between different groups on the grounds of religion which is against the ideology of a secular democratic country like India and also mischief against Indian army which is a criminal offence as per the law of the land," said the complainant.

Directed by Advait Chandan, the adaptation of the Hollywood classic 'Forrest Gump' marks Khan's return to silver screens after four years. The film also&nbsp;stars Kareena Kapoor, Mona Singh and Naga Chaitanya.
