Aamir Khan, one of Bollywood’s most celebrated stars known for films like ‘Ghajini’, ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’, and ‘Dangal’, has shared that he prefers not to interfere in his elder son Junaid Khan’s professional life. During a conversation with Kapil Sharma, Aamir stated how Junaid Khan is carving his own path in the industry without his help. He added that Junaid trained on his own, gave auditions independently, and is choosing to grow in his career on his own terms.Furthermore, Aamira Khan said, “No, I don’t read Junaid’s scripts. He doesn’t even want me to interfere in his career. He went to Los Angeles to learn theatre. He studied there for two years and did plays for a year. Then he came back and started a theater in Bombay. He used to go to auditions for casting directors. At that time, no one knew that he was my son. He didn’t tell anyone, and I didn’t tell anyone either.”
The ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ actor added how he learned about Junaid’s debut project: “One day, I got a call from Aditya Chopra. He said that he is taking Junaid in a film, ‘Maharaj’. I got to know about this film from the outside. He did a good job. So he made his own career. Actually, to be honest, as a father, he didn’t let me do anything. He never took anything from me. I have told him many times to buy a car.”“It’s a very odd thing that I always hug my kids. Like we are sitting at home, on the sofa or on the bed. So I hug Ira, Junaid and Azad closely. When he was small, it was easy, and now he is 6 feet 2 inches. But even today, when I hug him closely and keep his head on my chest. I can’t even tell you how much peace I feel.”
