QT,I consider myself to be one of the fortunate ones who knows to differentiate an "ACTOR" from the "PERSON per se"....
I love the "Actor" Aamir Khan,I think after AB,he's the best actor,so versatile,so natural and his acting seems so effortless...!!..He raised the bar with his Oscar Nominated Lagaan..Totally admire his histrionic skills!!.I truly an enamoured of his acting style I find Aamir to be a flawless actor
I admire some qualities in the "Person" Aamir,his stand against the award shows which are mostly rigged 🤢 and arent credible(How else would you explain a mediocre movie like KANK being nominated under the best movie category,whereas much much better movies like "Dor" and "Corporate" dont make it to the nominations?????),I like his guts,the way he keeps reinventing himself without being typecast like SRK!..He doesnt always stick to stereotypical movies which invariably work,nor is he stuck in a rut..He neither plays to the gallery,nor hobnobs the ones who weild clout for roles..I like these qualities in the "PERSON" Aamir,but there are several other traits which I despise(His elephantine ego being one).....
So am I inspired by the "ACTOR" Aamir❓🤔..An Actor's job is to act,and if I have to be inspired by the "actor",I need to be inspired by thew work he does..i.e. acting.....Well,the question could be rephrased like"Do I get inspired by the work he does and the roles he portrays"....YES,I do!!...Not only Aamir,but other actors too😊...I was inspired by the rabble rousing movie RBD,and Aamir's character DJ....😊...Lage Raho Munnabhai was quite inspiring,it brought back Gandhian principles and How!!....So I can safely say I was inspired by the "ACTOR" Sanjay Dutt....But I dont think I'm inspired by the "PERSON" Sanjay after his getting embroiled in all sorts of controversies
I dont think the premise of this thread was to question whether we get inspired by the "roles" actors play in movies,Its whether we get inspired by "ACTORS" as "PERSONS" and not as the image they project on celluloid!!
