One of the most renowned actors in Bollywood, Aamir Khan remains in news for different reasons. The actor these days is facing backlash and criticism for his old statements. The actor says there were a lot of misconceptions about his family's financial health while he was growing up. His father, Tahir Hussain. The actor recalled how the family wents through a big problems when he was about 10 years old.
Aamir Khan recalls his father had taken loans on interest for a film which did not get made for almost eight years. The actor said, “Thing that would trouble us most was Abba Jaan ko dekh ke (seeing our father). Because he was a very simple man. Maybe he didn't have enough sense that he should not have taken so much loan,” he said. Aamir said that due to the film tickets getting sold in black, producers would also often not get their dues. He added that though a few of his father's films did work, 'he never had money'. “
He further added, “Unko problem mein dekh ke takleef hoti thi kyuki un logon ke phone aate the jinse paise liye hain. Unka jhagda shuru hojata tha phone pe ki ‘main kya karu, mere paas paise nahi hai. Meri film atki hai, mere actors ko boliye dates dein mujhe, main kya karu.’ (So it would hurt us seeing him in trouble. Because lenders used to call us. We would hear him fighting with people on the phone, telling them 'what do I do, my film is stuck. Tell the actors to give me dates)."
Aamir Khan was last seen in Laal Singh Chaddha, the Hindi adaptation of Oscar-winning classic Forrest Gump, released on August 11 to generally negative reviews and a below-average box office opening.
