<p>A few days ago, the actor had also shared the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/aamir-khan-unveils-the-motion-poster-of-his-next-lal-singh-chaddha-co-stars-kareena-kapoor-260390">motion poster of the movie</a>. The short clip had&nbsp;music composer Pritam's soundtrack and showed&nbsp;a feather flying in the sky. He had captioned the video as, ''Kya pata hum mein hai kahani, ya hai kahaani mein hum…''</p>

Aamir Khan unveils the motion poster of his next 'Lal Singh Chaddha'; co-stars Kareena Kapoor

<p>“Mental” is the word people impose on someone when they hear that person has a learning disability. Because in literal terms they don't know “what exactly is learning disability”! You can call it a learning disability, learning disorder or learning difficulty which is still a social stigma. October is observed as Learning Disabilities Awareness Month. It is the way a person's brain is "wired" or you can also say when a person lacks certain skills. The child has difficulty in coding and decoding the science. If we talk about its forms, the most common ones are dyslexia (difficulty with words), dysgraphia (difficulty with handwriting), and dyscalculia (difficulty with calculations).</p>

<p>According to Occupational Therapist Dr Radha R Gourisariya who works for kids with special needs, the prevalence of specific learning disability is 15 per cent, out of which 12 per cent - dysgraphia, 11 per cent - dyslexia, and 10 per cent - dyscalculia.</p>

<p>She also shared that how she came across a student who wanted to be an automobile engineer but his parents wanted to drop his maths and science as CBSE has the provision to exempt it in 9th Grade.&nbsp;<br />

Not every kid gets a teacher like Aamir Khan in 'Taare Zameen Par'

<p>The trailer of 'Saand Ki Aankh' has received a great response on social media. Featuring actresses Bhumi Pednekar and Taapsee Pannu, the film narrates the story of two sharpshooters from Haryana, sisters Chandro and Prakashi Tomar who took up the sport post 60 and won medals.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The actresses have had to wear heavy makeup and use prosthetics to look their part in the film. While most have lauded the trailer, there is a section which has argued that how director Tushar Hiranandani and producer Anurag Kashyap could have cast senior actresses in the roles something that both Neena Gupta and Kangana Ranaut's sister Rangoli have agreed to.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Now reacting to the controversy, Taapsee Pannu has written a long post on Twitter where she pointed out how no one had raised fingers on Anupam Kher’s look in 'Saaransh' or Aamir Khan’s casting as a college student in '3 Idiots'.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
“I wonder…I just wonder…do we ever want to embrace the positivity or just keep latching onto negativity and glorifying it to save our lack of risk-taking tendencies? Have we really lost our shoulder along with our spine to support people who venture out of their comfort zone to bring about a change???? Or it’s just reserved for 2 females at a relatively nascent stage of their career who venture out to do something, which we were told, most of the people turned down?” read her post.<br />
<br />
“Did we ask the same question when we all loved what Anupam Kher did in Saaransh? Did we question when Nargis Dutt played mother to Sunil Dutt? Did we question John Travolta for playing a woman in Hairspray? Did we question Eddie Murphy for playing a white Jewish man in Coming to America? Did we question when Aamir Khan played a college kid in 3 Idiots? And in the future, are we going to question Ayushmann Khurrana for playing a gay man in Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan?

Taapsee Pannu on 'Saand Ki Aankh' casting row: Did we ask the same question to Aamir in '3 Idiots'? 

<p>Former actress Tanushree Dutta has criticised <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/aamir-khan-back-in-gulshan-kumars-biopic-mogul-to-be-directed-by-subhash-kapoor-248783">Aamir Khan over his decision to do 'Mogul'</a>. The biopic on T-Series founder Gulshan Kumar is being helmed by Subhash Kapoor who has been accused of sexual harassment by actress Geetika Tyagi.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Aamir, who had initially stepped out of the film citing 'zero-tolerance for sexual harassment and predatory behaviour', on Monday announced he had decided to join back the team and work with Kapoor. Also read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/opinions/aamir-khan-says-yes-to-subhash-kapoors-mogul-has-the-metoo-movement-become-hogwash-248881">Has the #MeToo movement become a hogwash in India?</a></p>

<p>Aamir in an interview later explained that he reconsidered after learning that Subhash Kapoor had lost several other projects because of Aamir's stand against him and that he "couldn't sleep at night because I used to constantly feel that my actions have inadvertently caused a person, about whose guilt I have absolutely no idea, to lose his right to work and earn a livelihood."</p>

<p>Aamir Khan specified that the sexual misconduct allegations by Geetika Tyagi are currently in court and "...until such time that the courts reach a conclusion, is it that he/she should not be allowed to work? Is he to just sit at home and not earn?"<br />
<br />
Speaking to a daily, Dutta said, "How come nobody in Bollywood has sleepless nights when a woman becomes a victim of abuse and is not able to work due to the trauma and ostracisation... If he has agreed to hire this guy, why not hire the woman who suffered the consequences of his actions? Why do only the creepy men of Bollywood get compassion? Let the girls also see some of that saintly do-goodery."<br />
<br />
"Compassion should be universal. If it's so selective as is being displayed by the Bollywood's bigwigs, then it's not compassion. It's convenience and ignorance. Nobody bothered to ask me how I was doing when my livelihood was snatched away after the 'Horn Ok Pleassss' harassment episode. No compassion for me, Aamir?" she further added. &nbsp;Dutta had accused actor Nana Patekar of sexual harassment on the sets of 'Horn OK Pleassss' in 2008. In September last year, as Dutta again spoke about the incident it heralded the #MeToo movement in India. In June 2019, Police gave <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/tanushree-dutta-sexual-harassment-case-police-gives-nana-patekar-clean-chit-closes-the-case-226825">Nana Patekar a clean chit </a>on the case.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, actress Geetika Tyagi, who accused Kapoor of sexual harassment also expressed disappointment at Aamir's decision and stated that she wished Aamir had also heard her side of the story. "I had commended Kiran Rao and Aamir Khan because it gave hope to more women to speak up about their own stories. But I had never asked for it from them. Now that Subhash has been hired back, it's not like someone (from their end) reached out to me. It would have been a fair game had they considered both sides of the story."</p>

Tanushree Dutta slams Aamir Khan for saying yes to working with Subhash Kapoor in 'Mogul'

<p>When the first tirade on sexual offenders started in India, several cans of worms opened up. Women across sectors came out and perhaps for the first time spoke against sexual offenders- naming and shaming them on public platforms and social media. Some of the big names from almost every industry were outed for their behaviour. These women were cheered, encouraged and given support by men and women alike, film stars and politicians alike for speaking up. It seemed that the #MeToo movement had, at last, arrived in India, with women finally finding their voice against the injustice they had faced. This was in September 2018. &nbsp;But a year later, somehow, things seemed to have drastically changed.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the wake of #MeToo movement, Aamir Khan, known for being always politically correct, and for imparting life lessons through his films- had withdrawn from a film called 'Mogul' &nbsp;back in 2018 when the film's director Subhash Kapoor was accused of sexual harassment.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In a long post on Twitter, Aamir and his filmmaker wife Kiran Rao had then stated that their production house Aamir Khan Productions 'followed zero tolerance policy for sexual misconduct and predatory behaviour'. 'Later during an appearance in chat show 'Koffee With Karan', Khan was even credited for being the path breaker and heralding a new wave in the Hindi film industry by disassociating himself from those accused and thereby setting an example. Actors Akshay Kumar and Hrithik Roshan had followed suit as both publicly disassociated themselves from Sajid Khan and Vikas Bahl - directors of their upcoming films accused of sexual misconduct.&nbsp;</p>

<p>With big names supporting the movement, it seemed that Bollywood had finally got its watershed moment and one had hoped that the rampant abuse of power in exchange of sexual favours in the film industry would finally be coming to an end.&nbsp;</p>

<p>A year later, things seemed to have digressed. Aamir Khan is <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/aamir-khan-back-in-gulshan-kumars-biopic-mogul-to-be-directed-by-subhash-kapoor-248783">back on board in 'Mogul' </a>with Subhash Kapoor as the director. While the announcement was greeted with excitement by actor's fans, one can't help but wonder whether Khan's move earlier was just hogwash.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Khan in an interview to a daily on Tuesday stated that he realised that Kapoor was out of job after he stepped out of the project. "I couldn’t sleep at night because I used to constantly feel that my actions have inadvertently caused a person, about whose guilt I have absolutely no idea, to lose his right to work and earn a livelihood," said Aamir.&nbsp;</p>

<p>On Tuesday, Anu Malik, another celebrity accused of sexual misconduct by singers Sona Mohapatra and Shweta Pandit, made a comeback on popular singing reality show 'Indian Idol' as one of the celebrity judges. Malik had to step down last year when his name had come up with other prominent figures in the offenders' list. &nbsp;Just like Malik, Vikas Bahl was credited for his work as a director on 'Super 30' after an 'internal committee' gave him a clean chit- weeks before his film 'Super 30' was to release. So was <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/tanushree-dutta-sexual-harassment-case-police-gives-nana-patekar-clean-chit-closes-the-case-226825">Nana Patekar </a>who was given the clean chit by Mumbai Police earlier in June this year.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In fact, Tanushree Dutta's 10-year-old case of sexual harassment on film sets 'Horn Ok Pleassss' had spearheaded the #MeToo campaign in India. Dutta, who has since then taken a break from films, &nbsp;had accused Patekar of sexual harassment on the film sets- a fact that was corroborated by journalist Janice Sequeira who was present on the sets when the incident had taken place in 2008. Yet, 11 years down line, with enough video evidence as well as eye witness accounts that proved Dutta right, the Police decided to shut the case after a preliminary round of investigation.&nbsp;</p>

<p>What changed in a year so much that those who were outed for their behaviour, have suddenly got validation from those who matter?</p>

<p>Going by the recent cases, fighting a sexual harassment case seems to be a lonely battle where the perpetrators are often validated by those in power and the victim/survivor is often left alone to fend for themselves. They may cry hoarse proving their truth but they get minimal support from the judiciary or the society at large.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Celebrities like Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan yield a lot of influence on the public thanks to their films and the huge fan base. Cases of sexual misconduct are perhaps the most sensitive of them all and celebrities backing in some way those who are at wrong proves that how the climate for change is not really conducive in India.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In Hollywood, &nbsp;the #MeToo movement got prominence in 2017 when film producer Harvey Weinstein was accused of sexual harassment and rape by multiple women. Other prominent names like Bill Cosby, Kevin Spacey and R Kelly were also named as perpetrators. Spacey was in fact replaced from 'All The Money In The World' by Christopher Pummer soon after the case came into light. Spacey had already shot 90 per cent of the movie when director Ridley Scott decided to replace him in the light of the accusations against him. &nbsp;Cases against all these men are still on trial and Hollywood has consciously tried to distance itself from them. But that doesn't seem to be the case in India.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Ajay Devgn, the producer and lead actor of 'De De Pyaar De' did not feel the need to replace Alok Nath even after TV producer Vinta Nanda gave a detailed account of how Nath had raped her 20 years back. The Cine Artist Body may have banned Nath, but it has not stopped makers from casting him in films.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Has the #MeToo movement been reduced to a token service in India? By working with those accused, aren't actors and producers questioning the truth of the victims?</p>

<p>Aamir alleges that he and Rao spoke to several women who have worked with Kapoor in the past who have stated that he has been at his best behaviour and speaking to these women assured Khan to get back to the project.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Even if a person has had a spotless record, does that give him the leeway to misbehave with an individual and should one be pardoned for one slip? Should a one-off case be discredited? Shouldn't a proper investigation take place before a clean chit is given?</p>

<p>Aamir Khan may have his reasons of getting back to the project but it still sets a wrong example for those who may look up to him and others like him for support and justice. By agreeing to be a part of a film made by a man accused of sexual harassment, Aamir has not only failed the victim but several others who may never speak up knowing that the outcome would not be in their favour.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Women have been marginalized in society since time immemorial. Victim blaming has been part of the culture since eternity. But perhaps now is the time to step up. The #MeToo movement may have given women the voice to speak up but as a society, we still need to take giant leaps to help, support and give strength to those who have been wronged.&nbsp;<br />

When the first tirade on sexual offenders started in India, several cans of worms opened up. Women across sectors came out and perhaps for the first time spoke against sexual offenders- naming and shaming them on public platforms and social media.

When the first tirade on sexual offenders started in India, several cans of worms opened up. Women across sectors came out and perhaps for the first time spoke against sexual offenders- naming and shaming them on public platforms and social media. Some of the big names from almost every industry were outed for their behaviour. These women were cheered, encouraged and given support by men and women alike, film stars and politicians alike for speaking up. It seemed that the #MeToo movement had, at last, arrived in India, with women finally finding their voice against the injustice they had faced. This was in September 2018. But a year later, somehow, things seemed to have drastically changed. In the wake of #MeToo movement, Aamir Khan, known for being always politically correct, and for imparting life lessons through his films- had withdrawn from a film called 'Mogul' back in 2018 when the film's director Subhash Kapoor was accused of sexual harassment. In a long post on Twitter, Aamir and his filmmaker wife Kiran Rao had then stated that their production house Aamir Khan Productions 'followed zero tolerance policy for sexual misconduct and predatory behaviour'. 'Later during an appearance in chat show 'Koffee With Karan', Khan was even credited for being the path breaker and heralding a new wave in the Hindi film industry by disassociating himself from those accused and thereby setting an example. Actors Akshay Kumar and Hrithik Roshan had followed suit as both publicly disassociated themselves from Sajid Khan and Vikas Bahl - directors of their upcoming films accused of sexual misconduct. With big names supporting the movement, it seemed that Bollywood had finally got its watershed moment and one had hoped that the rampant abuse of power in exchange of sexual favours in the film industry would finally be coming to an end. A year later, things seemed to have digressed. Aamir Khan is back on board in 'Mogul' with Subhash Kapoor as the director. While the announcement was greeted with excitement by actor's fans, one can't help but wonder whether Khan's move earlier was just hogwash.

<p>Superstar Aamir Khan on Monday expended support to Prime Minister Narendra Modi`s initiative of banning single-use plastic in the country.

<p>Team India`s journey in the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup came to an end on Wednesday as<a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/new-zealand-stun-india-by-18-runs-to-reach-world-cup-final-234755"> New Zealand defeated the Indian cricket team </a>in the semi-finals of the tournament. The loss naturally shattered dreams of millions of Indian fans.</p>

<p>The match, which went on for two days due to rain on the first day, left a lot of Bollywood celebrities disappointed as well.&nbsp;<br />

Even after a shaky start, Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni`s partnership got the team close to the score, but they still couldn`t make it.While people are still reeling over India`s loss in the tournament, Bollywood celebrities took to Twitter to express their disappointment after India missed their chance to lift the World Cup trophy.<br />
<br />
Anupam Kher, Aamir Khan, Karan Johar, Ayushmann Khurrana, Riteish Deshmukh, Rishi Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Arjun Rampal, Randeep Hooda, Sonakshi Sinha, Huma Qureshi, and Boman Irani, among many others, hailed team India for putting up a good fight against the Kiwis.<br />
<br />
Aamir took to the micro-blogging site and wrote for him India "had already won the world cup when we qualified for the semis.Hard luck Virat. Just wasn`t our day today. For me, India had already won the world cup when we qualified for the semis at the top of the list as the no 1 team. Well played guys, throughout the tournament. I just wish it hadn`t rained yesterday... the result might have been different. But well done. Proud of our team. Love. A,"&nbsp;<br />

<p>This isn`t the first time that an actor has made an effort to garner people`s attention towards current environmental issues.On Sunday, Salman Khan gave a subtle yet impactful message on single-use plastic.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The actor posted a video where he can be seen offering water to a monkey, whom he calls his `Bajrangi Bhaijaan`, in a plastic bottle.<br />
<br />
The monkey, however, refuses. Khan then offers water in a glass and `Bajrangi Bhaijaan` is quick to accept it."Hamara bajrangi bhaijaan plastic ki bottle se paani nahi peeta (Our Bajrangi Bhaijaan does not drink water from a plastic bottle)," Salman captioned the video.<br />
<br />
While the video was shared on a lighter note, hidden in it is a message to stop using plastic bottles.<br />

Earlier this week, Hollywood actor and <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood-star-leonardo-dicaprio-expresses-concern-over-water-crisis-in-indian-state-230654">environmentalist Leonardo DiCaprio</a> shared a post on his Instagram account highlighting the difficulty faced by citizens of Chennai because of water scarcity.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The actor cited a BBC news story along with a picture of several women drawing water from a well and said; "Only rain can save Chennai from this situation."<br />
<br />
A well completely empty and a city without water. The southern Indian city of Chennai is in crisis after the four main water reservoirs ran completely dry. The acute water shortage has forced the city to scramble for urgent solutions and residents have to stand in line for hours to get water from government tanks."<br />
<br />
"As the water levels depleted, hotels and restaurants started to shut down temporarily, and the air con was turned off in the city`s metro. Officials in the city continue to try and find alternative sources of water - but the community continues to pray for rain. Tap the link in our bio to read more about Chennai`s water crisis," he added.<br />
<br />
Tamil Nadu has been reeling under acute water crisis for the past several months as Chennai`s Porur Lake, one of the main sources of water reached its lowest level. Scorching heat and a delayed monsoon has further exacerbated the situation.<br />
<br />
The new Jal Shakti Ministry has been created with an aim to address water woes in the country."Keeping in mind the importance of water we have created Jal Shakti Ministry.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
It is made to take decisions on all water-related issues which will now be taken at a fast pace," Modi had said in his first radio address after assuming office.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Fatima Sana Shaikh who is fairly old in Bollywood owing to her acting career since she was a child feels that the superstar era has ended. Talking about how accessible stars are in today’s age and time, she said, “The superstar era ended way back. After the ‘Khans’, I don’t think we will ever have superstars. Now we all are accessible but earlier the stars were not. We could not search them on social media or follow their lives. We were able to connect with them through their films and interviews.”</p>

<p>Fatima started acting with 1997 film ‘Chachi 420’ with Kamal Haasan. She quit the industry and then made a comeback now. She faced rejections and waited for a long time before coming back. She said, “I have been a child actor. I quit but making a comeback after that was difficult. I was not getting any work. People used to tell me I don’t look like Deepika Padukone or Katrina Kaif. They said, since I didn’t have the looks of a heroine, I should do whatever I’m offered. There have been many incidents where I was told that I was not good enough.”</p>

<p>This did not stop her though. She wanted to be in front of the camera and she was sure of it. Fatima said, “I only had acting on my mind. The reason why I used to go for every audition was because I would get to perform in front of the camera, even if the set-up was small.” The success of Aamir Khan-starrer Dangal, however, made things easier for Fatima as it gave her the option to choose.</p>

<p>“Before Dangal, I never had the chance to choose my projects. I even did ‘Dangal’ because that was my only option at that time. Every actor goes through this. That’s how things function. But I am happy that post the film and especially after Thugs of Hindostan, I have the space to choose,” she said.&nbsp;</p>

Aamir Khan paid a surprise visit to Rishi Kapoor who is currently in New York, undergoing treatment for an illness. Sharing a picture of their meeting, actress and wife of Rishi, Neetu Kapoor called Aamir a “true superstar”. She captioned the post: "It's not how many hours one spends with a person, it's how much you give in that time. Aamir gave so much and more - Love, respect, warmth and laughter. He is a true superstar." For those who have not been following the news of Rishi Kapoor’s illness, the couple moved to the US in September last year, so that Rishi can easily get treated for an undisclosed illness. While they have hinted and we presume that it’s cancer that he is dealing with, they have not announced it anywhere.

<p>Rajkummar Rao may have emerged as a major draw at the box office but the actor does not believe he is anywhere near the super stardom that the three Khans have in Bollywood.<br />
<br />
There is a great churning in Bollywood with content driven films outperforming and outclassing those headlined by the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan.<br />
<br />
Rajkummar, who is the considered one of the faces of this new breed of cinema, however, says it would not be right to compare his stardom with that of the Khans.<br />
<br />
"I don't think we can compare superstars and actors like me. The kind of films Aamir sir, Shah Rukh sir and Salman sir have done are amazing. You can't say they are not good just because one of their films did not work.<br />
<br />
"They are superstars for some reason and we all love them. I am myself a fan of Khans. We should not compare. We are very new and we have a long way to prove ourselves. I don't think the kind of superstardom that these superstars have seen will ever come back again," Rajkummar told PTI.<br />
<br />
The actor believes the mass hysteria and mania around their superstardom is something that all actors yearn for but it just cannot be replicated.<br />
<br />
"I want all our films to do well at the box office. But the craze that they have seen is something I don't think is going to comeback. It is very tough. People love these actors, the way people react, shout, hug, cry... The phenomenon is huge."<br />
<br />
The 34-year-old actor, whose filmography includes gems like 'Newton', 'Trapped', 'Bareilly Ki Barfi'&nbsp;and 'Stree', among others, rules himself out of the contention of being the next big Bollywood superstar.<br />
<br />

The actor had five releases in 2018 but it was Amar Kaushik's 'Stree' &nbsp;that did the wonders for Rajkummar at the box office. He also starred in critically-acclaimed films ' Omerta' &nbsp;and 'Love Sonia'.<br />
<br />
"Audience loved these stories more than anything else. Today people are more concerned about the content they are seeing. I always try to offer new things. Since my debut film 'Love Sex Aur Dhokha', I am trying to experiment and push boundaries as an actor. I am happy people are accepting that. It is a feeling of validation as these are the kind of films I was doing earlier and today they are doing great numbers."<br />
<br />
Despite his recent success, the actor still reads all his scripts. He says yes to a project only if he feels the story is good.<br />
<br />
"I do get a lot of scripts, I don't want to give a number, I can't brag. I get all kinds of scripts from weird to some really interesting ones as well. I have a number of films to choose from.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"I read all my scripts and I don't let other people decide. I believe an actor should invest their time in reading scripts carefully and understanding it. Also, there are filmmakers with whom I wanted to work and now I am getting the opportunity to do so."</p>

<p>Up next for the actor is 'Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga', where he reunites with Anil Kapoor and co-stars Sonam Kapoor. <a href="http://www.wionews.com/entertainment/ek-ladki-ko-dekha-toh-aisa-laga-review-anil-and-sonam-kapoors-film-is-heartwarming-194375">Read the review of the film here.&nbsp;</a><br />

About the film, Rajkummar says, "More than the role, the story was unique, so I did the film. It talks about things that are relevant in our society. I liked the role as well. It is the story that I look at first and then comes my role."<br />

The film offers yet another take on LGBTQ issues, something which Rajkummar previously dealt with in Hansal Mehta's 'Aligarh'.&nbsp;<br />

"This film ('Ek Ladki..') is more about acceptance. This is a family film, relationship drama, it is about friendship, love. I believe there has to be equality, you can't judge someone based on sexual preference. It is their life and who they want as their partners, it is a normal thing," he adds.&nbsp;<br />

He has interesting blend of films up for release this year - 'Mental Hai Kya'&nbsp;with Kangana Ranaut and 'Made in China'. He has also signed a film with Anurag Basu and Hansal Mehta.&nbsp;</p>


Rajkummar Rao may have emerged as a major draw at the box office but the actor does not believe he is anywhere near the super stardom that the three Khans have in Bollywood.

Rajkummar Rao may have emerged as a major draw at the box office but the actor does not believe he is anywhere near the super stardom that the three Khans have in Bollywood. There is a great churning in Bollywood with content driven films outperforming and outclassing those headlined by the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan. Rajkummar, who is the considered one of the faces of this new breed of cinema, however, says it would not be right to compare his stardom with that of the Khans. "I don't think we can compare superstars and actors like me. The kind of films Aamir sir, Shah Rukh sir and Salman sir have done are amazing. You can't say they are not good just because one of their films did not work. "They are superstars for some reason and we all love them. I am myself a fan of Khans. We should not compare. We are very new and we have a long way to prove ourselves. I don't think the kind of superstardom that these superstars have seen will ever come back again," Rajkummar told PTI. The actor believes the mass hysteria and mania around their superstardom is something that all actors yearn for but it just cannot be replicated. "I want all our films to do well at the box office. But the craze that they have seen is something I don't think is going to comeback. It is very tough. People love these actors, the way people react, shout, hug, cry... The phenomenon is huge." The 34-year-old actor, whose filmography includes gems like 'Newton', 'Trapped', 'Bareilly Ki Barfi' and 'Stree', among others, rules himself out of the contention of being the next big Bollywood superstar. "I am very happy doing what I am doing and if it takes me there, good. But let me tell you I am happy in this space." The actor had five releases in 2018 but it was Amar Kaushik's 'Stree' that did the wonders for Rajkummar at the box office. He also starred in critically-acclaimed films ' Omerta' and 'Love Sonia'.

<p>For an actor who has delivered back-to-back blockbuster hits for the past many years, Aamir Khan is quite humble when it comes to failures. His last release, 'Thugs Of Hindostan' was pitched as the big release of 2018 and featured Amitabh Bachchan, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Katrina Kaif along with him. But the film failed to work at the box office.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The movie met with extreme criticism and crashed upon it's release. <a href="http://www.wionews.com/entertainment/thugs-of-hindostan-review-aamir-khan-amitabh-bachchans-latest-is-unacceptable-176190">Read the review of 'Thugs Of Hindostan' here.&nbsp;</a><br />
<br />
Aamir said he doesn't need to "forgive" director Vijay Krishna Acharya as they all set out to make a good film.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Every director that I work with, they are good and their intentions are good. We all aim to make a good film but sometimes it doesn't happen. Filmmaking is difficult. I'm a team player. If my director has gone wrong, I've gone wrong with him," Aamir said in a group interview.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"I don't mind failing with my director on his or her instincts. I don't have a problem. I believe in the director and if he has gone wrong, I have too. We will learn from our mistakes," he added.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The actor said he took the responsibility for the failure as the audience came in to watch the film for him.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Audience came to watch the film on my name. So it was my responsibility. To that audience I feel personally and fully responsible."<br />
<br />
While the film was bashed from all quarters, there was a section which felt the criticism was unfair. Aamir said he's aware there are people who liked the film but wouldn't want to be judgemental towards those who didn't.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"I've met a lot of people who told me they liked the film. But I don't judge these things. I think the audience has full right to say exactly what they want and they can be harsh in their criticism, that's their right. If there was a certain amount of harshness, so be it," he said.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Also, I didn't give a flop film since a long time! So people got an opportunity to take out their anger, which is good too. It's been years since I have had a failure," he quipped.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The actor was in conversation with the media to promote his upcoming production, ' Rubaru Roshni'. Directed by Svati Chakravarty Bhatkal, the film chronicles three real life story of grief and forgiveness.&nbsp;</p>

<p>His films may be one of the most money minting releases, but when it comes to choosing a story Aamir Khan follows his heart and the business aspect does not come into consideration.</p>

<p>The 53-year-old superstar, who made some unusual choices in his close to three-decade-long career, made experimental cinema mainstream by giving hits like 'Sarfarosh', 'Lagaan', 'Dil Chahta Hai', 'Rang De Basanti', 'Taare Zameen Par', '3 Idiots', 'Dangal' and 'Secret Superstar'.</p>

<p>&nbsp;"As a creative person, I have always followed my heart and worked on films that have touched and moved me.

Also, it reinforces the belief I have in storytelling and creativity," Aamir told PTI.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The actor was speaking on the sidelines of the inauguration of the National Museum of Indian Cinema (NMIC) by Prime Minister Narendra Modi Saturday.</p>

<p>Aamir praised the initiative by the government.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I am a student of cinema and a lover of history. I am glad this museum has started. I am keen to look at it all through.

Whenever there is a book on any film personality I always buy, I like to read about that time."&nbsp;</p>
