Aamir Khan, the acclaimed Indian actor and filmmaker, recently revealed his unconventional early career choices during a conversation with comedian Zakir Khan. Known for his meticulous approach to cinema, Aamir admitted that he accepted roles in two films—Awwal Number and Tum Mere Ho—without reading the scripts, primarily due to the influence of his father, Tahir Hussain. Aamir explained that his usual method for selecting projects is driven by an emotional connection to the story, rather than a technical evaluation. However, in these two instances, he felt compelled to comply with his father's decisions. Reflecting on Awwal Number, Aamir recounted how his father had already committed him to the film without consulting him, leading to a sense of apprehension and compliance. Similarly, for Tum Mere Ho, Aamir's father emphasized his experience in filmmaking, which further discouraged Aamir from questioning the project. Looking back, Aamir humorously noted that audiences could hold him accountable for films where he had full creative awareness. He emphasized that his career has largely been guided by instinct, citing Taare Zameen Par as a pivotal film that resonated deeply with him despite initial skepticism. These early experiences illustrate a contrast in Aamir's career, showcasing how trust and family influence shaped his eventual disciplined approach to filmmaking.
