Aamir Khan is pretty much the first Bollywood star I fell in love with, the first person I wanted to 'be' when I was younger. Over the last two decades, Aamir has developed into one of the finest, idiosyncratic, genius and most adored actors in the industry. He has starred in some of the most successful Bollywood films of all time, including last year's truly exceptional, 3 Idiots. It was great meeting Aamir for the first time as we talked about his past, present and future.
Aamir is also the founder of his own company, Aamir Khan Productions and with this, he helms the release of Peepli Live on 24 September - a comic satire on village life and farmer suicides. Hope you enjoy the interview!
