Aamir Khan, whose most recent film, Sitare Zameen Par, has cracked the success code, is now looking forward to his next screen outing, which will bring him face-to-face with Rajinikanth.
Speaking for the first time on the project, Aamir, in an exclusive chat with this writer, reveals, “Mine is a cameo in a Tamil action thriller directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. I can’t tell you much about my role. But I come in at a crucial point in the plot.”
About the experience of sharing screen space with Rajinikanth, Aamir says, “It’s an important cameo, but it’s a cameo. And when Lokesh approached me for that, the moment I got to know it’s Rajni Sir, I jumped at it. I’m a huge fan of Rajni Sir. I really love him. The moment I got to know it’s his film, I said, yes, I’m on. I have worked long back with Rajini Sir in a film called Aatank Hi Aatank. That was an attempt at remaking The Godfather. I would say an attempt which did not succeed. That was about 30-32 years ago. That was at the beginning of my career.”
