Aamir gets intimate with Asin before shooting romantic song
Mumbai, Nov 14: It is a truth 'reportedly' acknowledged in Bollywood that Aamir Khan falls in love with all his lead actresses. The perfectionist actor is known to cross the line that demarcates reel-love from real-love.
And most of the actresses bask in the glory of romancing Aamir for few days during the shoot, and then they part amicably without any strings attached. But while shooting for 'Ghajini', Aamir went a little too far. He actually requested co-star Asin to spend four days with him before shooting a romantic song, 'in order to know her better'.
According to a source, "Four days before shooting, were kept aside for Aamir to get to know his leading lady and put her at ease, so that the romantic song would look natural. Aamir and Asin would go for long walks in the desert. Nobody knew what they spoke about but one could see Asin gradually relaxing and becoming comfortable with Aamir. And that's the reason the blazing chemistry on screen."
Aamir needed to establish a rapport with Asin, confirmed the source. "Aamir is an experienced actor and can switch on and off at will but he realised that Asin might not be ready to break into a romantic number at will. They needed to establish a rapport."
Talking about the romantic song, the source said, "A charter aircraft comprising 23 people was taken to Namibia and the song was shot in 'dead man's land'. Sosusfei Lodge, where Aamir and the crew stayed is part of the dessert. The location was a two-and-a-half hour ride from the hotel. Aamir was very particular about his workouts as he had to shoot his bare-bodied sequences there especially for the song so a makeshift gym was created at the base camp of the shooting locations."
Aamir reportedly praised Asin for her performance in the Tamil version of Ghajini. Wonder, what Kiran has to say on this?
