Aamir Khan is the Khan of the moment, the actor who recently churned out a blockbuster hit Ghajini, however the perfectionist Khan in his recent interview revealed that he is actually embarased by his old flims. Check out the interview below:
When you look at those clips from the 80s and 90s do you go you know what I'm really proud of that or do you go oh god I just want to die?
AK: No, I just want to die. I get totally embarrassed. Usually you know when I finish a film within six months I feel eh, this is not good enough. This is where we've messed up, and we could've done this, and I've grown so much as an actor and I can do this much better now. I don't like my work usually after some time, I don't like it anymore.
That's gonna be tough because you're gonna keep seeing it?
AK: Sooner I just don't see it. I stop seeing my work. I see it a lot when I'm on the film and you know, I see it with the audience, while it releases, that's one thing I do for all my films. I watch them with the audience. And the audience doesn't know I'm in the theatre.
How do they not know?
AK: They don't know because they're already in there. And then I walk in, I stand at the back, I go into the projection room, those windows there, peep out and I can see everyone, I can hear them. So you can see them shifting in their seats if they don't like the scene. You can actually see that happen. So when the film is not working, you'll suddenly hear a lot of chairs you know, chair sounds…shifting, coughing, so you know you're losing the audience there.
Did you go in to the projection room and watch movies that didn't do so well like Mela and Mann?
AK: Yes I did. Yes I did. It's heartbreaking. It's really heartbreaking. But I think that's what I'm making these films for, you know. I want, I'm making for the audience and I wanna be there to see how they like it. And if they don't, I wanna be there to see that.
So what do you think folks? Aamir of today or Aamir of yesterday?
