Although Aamir performs well in the audition video, netizens have expressed their satisfaction that he was ultimately rejected for the role, praising Ravi Kishan's portrayal instead.

Earlier, Aamir Khan spoke about Kiran rejecting him for the role, saying, “I tried to play a character in the film; she (Kiran) didn’t let me. I wanted to play the cop and even did a screen test for it, but I was rejected. I was really keen on playing that role, but Kiran and I discussed it. I think my screen test was very good, but we decided to go with Ravi Kishan. Both of us took that decision.”

Meanwhile, Aamir recently celebrated his 60th birthday with an intimate gathering at his Mumbai residence. The guest list included close friends and fellow superstars Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan.

During his pre-birthday celebrations for his 60th, Aamir Khan made a public introduction of his girlfriend, Gauri Spratt, to the media. The interaction uncovered some unexpected details about their relationship.

Aamir Khan’s girlfriend, Gauri Spratt, recently opened up about what truly made her fall for him. Interestingly, it wasn’t his blockbuster films like 3 Idiots or Dangal. Gauri revealed that she isn’t a big fan of Bollywood films and has only watched two of Aamir’s movies.

Aamir Khan shared, “I was looking for someone I can be calm with, someone who brings me peace. And there she was.” Gauri, in turn, spoke about what she was looking for in a partner, explaining how Aamir turned out to be the perfect match for her.
