Aamir Khan is currently shooting for an extensive schedule of Dangal in Punjab where the actor will be seen essaying a role of a wrestler in his next. 

He has been vesting all his time and energy on his upcoming next.

Aamir who had gained 25 kgs for his character in his forthcoming film Dangal is now in the process of shedding the same amount of weight in 25 weeks. Not many were aware that Aamir had to lose the same amount of weight that he had initially gained yet again for his character.

The actor will be seen playing different ages of his character in the film, therefore the actor is now preparing himself to shoot other portions of the film wherein he is required to appear different.

Since the shoot for the portion where he has to look fat has come to an end, Aamir has started to lose weight from 1st January onward. Moreover, this weight loss process also includes an intense workout schedule. We would soon be witnessing the actor in a different avatar. 

Aamir had created tremendous buzz when the actor had started gaining weight, the actor has completely dedicated himself for doing justice to his character. 

The actor has been going through several fluctuations in weight and thereby resulting in lots of clothes in the actors wardrobe.

Due to the variation in weight, the actor has different sizes of clothes in plenty.

The actor has decided to give it to charity.

Spokesperson confirms the news and adds "Aamir Khan has gone through series of sizes as he had to put on 25 kgs and again he will be going through series of sizes."

2016 belongs to Sports Based Films

2016 will see a slew of sports-based stories on the big screen.


Salman Khan will be seen wrestling and trying out mixed martial arts in director Ali Abbas Zafar’s Sultan.

Aamir Khan will play ex-wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat in director Nitesh Tiwari’s Dangal, which is based on the struggles Phogat had to face to train his daughters in wrestling.

Also, cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s life will be brought to the silver screen by Sushant Singh Rajput, in director Neeraj Pandey’s biopic on the ODI Indian skipper.

On the other hand, R Madhavan stars in Saala Khadoos (SK), a sports drama revolving around boxing.

“Earlier, film-makers usually made movies that were considered safe, like love stories, action films, etc. Also, most of the sports-based films that were attempted in the earlier decades didn’t do well, so no one ventured into that territory for many years. Now is a good time as far as the variety in plots is concerned, because film-makers are trying different kinds of stories. I’m glad that more sports films are now being made in India,” says film-maker Rajkumar Hirani, who has produced SK. He adds, “Sports films are usually about the triumph of an underdog, and they make you feel good. Such movies are happy films.”

Aamir recruits local's of Ludhiana for shooting Dangal

Aamir has asked the Production unit of Dangal to employ people from Ludhiana as on ground security.


Dangal is all set to go on floors and the team will start the shoot in Ludhiana. 

Dangal is also Aamir's home production and he wants more and more locals of Ludhiana to be employed. 

Apart from professional security guards that are always with the actor, the actor has also hired local security guards from Ludhiana.

Also, besides the professional crew that have been part of Dangal since the inception who would be travelling to Ludhiana, people who would not require prior knowledge about the project as such have been got on board from Ludhiana itself. This will also be a good local connect for the team. 

Aamir is known to do things differently each time, and this time the thoughtful actor is helping the locals by providing employment. 


Dangal is Aamir Khan's next release after the release breaking PK.

PK - Hindi movie review


Rating: ***


Its OMG! Oh My God revisited. PK is a satire on “God and godmen” with an unique narration, superb performances from the pivotal characters, yet is a lengthy film which stretches on the same issue of having called a ‘Wrong Number’ while seeking the almighty.

The Managers of God have been again exposed in this film where an alien (resembling human race) comes to earth on his mission to survey the life and times of the inhabitants of this planet.

PK is not a futuristic or a sci-fi film, it deals about the ordeals of the alien man who is clean hearted, doesn’t tell lies, doesn’t hurt anybody, has the ability to grasp the language within few hours of just holding hands of a human. Like the data being transferred from one hard disk to another. This person has the ability to adapt easily to the new surroundings.

Raj Kumar Hirani turns choreographer for P.K.


Raj Kumar Hirani turns choreographer for Aamir Khan and Anushka Sharma


For one of the songs in his awaited upcoming film, PK, Raj Kumar Hirani wanted a very different signature move.

The director was keen to have a non filmy choreographer for this particular song and they went on an extensive search to get someone unusual on board for this.

Artists from France, Bangalore and other places were auditioned but Raju was not satisfied with the groove of the signature move.

Even people from the cast and crew were given a chance to try but to no solution.

Kiran Rao who was on set once also tried making a cool move but it did not fit the feel of the song.

Apart from that, even Anushka Sharma tried her hands at it.

Finally, it was Raj Kumar Hirani, who came up with a cool signature move for the song.

Bosco – Ceasar then came on board and choreographed the entire song in the same mood.

The song is a light mood song and the makers are very happy with the way it has turned out to look

Aamir Khan is having secret night long meetings at his home since a couple of days now



The actor, who resides at carter road, has a lot of people coming in and out of his building frequently.

Since Aamir Khan’s building is road facing, it is very easy for people to spot his office lights that are on till late hours.

This has got people to think and wonder what the agenda of these long meetings is.

The actor has two very interesting projects in hand right now; the 2nd tranche of the series Satyamev Jayate and Raj Kumar Hirani’s P.K. which is slated to release this Christmas.

So, has he been taking keen interest in one of these projects or has he taken to something new altogether?

Well, we will only have to wait and watch what has been getting so much importance from the Star Khan recently.

It was a packed house and the discussion majorly revolved around how individually what could we do to make a difference. 

While lots of students asked lot of relevant questions and the session went on for more than hour. However Aamir was most impressed by Honey Singh, a student merely in the 7th standard who is huge fan of the show SMJ and Aamir Khan.

He asked Aamir that, what kind of difficulties the actor faced during the making of all the episodes. Honey's question was, what kind of pressure from administration or politics or any other group has been experienced by the actor. Aamir was impressed at the insight the kid had. 

There were so many professors and students at the discussion who had asked all kind of question but the only one who understood that it may not have been easy for the actor was the small boy who studies in 7th standard.

Dhoom:3 Film Review

Dhoom:3                              Rating: ***

A treat to watch Aamir Khan performing unbelievable stunts and his superb Tap Dance. 

Director Vijay Krishna Acharya who has penned the story, screenplay for this film as well as the earlier two versions has gone somewhat overboard in some action scenes and other emotional sequences in the second half. 

It is the story of a boy who sees his magician father take his life because the Bank who had loaned money wanted to take possession of the assets of The Great Indian Circus. Sahir witnessed his dad shoot himself, and after 25 years, Sahir takes revenge by robbing the bank’s branches on several occasions, and then shower the bank’s hard cash from the terrace on the roads.

Contrary to the big stars – Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgan who are more casually dressed at events..

The younger generation seem to swear by their suits.

The young guns of Bollywood have been sporting the formal attire at events these days.The trend is usually followed in Hollywood, However if the fashion-ista’s closely observe Bollywood actors are sporting suits these days.

Imran Khan who is one of the most stylish actor among the young lot, swears by his suits. He has often even gone on record saying that dressing up in formals is the easiest and most fashionable.

He reasons that while one is adorning a suit you have everything put together, already in place and you just have to wear it.

Sidharth Malhotra, has also often been sported in his formal avatar. He has the charm of the boy next door and yet, when he is dressed in a suit his personality gets more pronounced.

Talaash - Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Rani Mukherjee



An exceptional suspense thriller with an unusual narrative, unlike other edge of the seat thrillers, this one has a narrative never seen before in hindi cinema.
Talaash is an psychological suspense thriller. During the course of investigation of an accidental death of a superstar Inspector Shekhawat (Aamir Khan) experiences an inner guilt of the loss of his son.
The case turns into a life altering chase for Inspector Shekhawat when he is forced to reel under the repercussions of a broken married life with wife and come face to face with his suppressed grief of drowning of his son.
The film begins with a car accident leading to the death of a high profile star. Inspector Shekhawat buries himself in grilling the suspects, formulating various reasons or motives which lead to a dead end.
Most of the scenes are shot in red light areas of Mumbai. Talaash explores Mumbai’s underbelly like never before.
The film has accomplished actors like Aamir Khan, Kareena and Rani. Rani Mukherjee is brilliant as the grieving mother striving hard to come back to normalcy in her life. Those moments when she feels lonely and her confrontation with her husband appear extremely normal.
Aamir Khan sparkles as a cop yet again, but unlike the cop he played in Sarfarosh, he is superb in this matured role of an investigating inspector. And then it is Kareena Kapoor who plays the hooker – Rosy / Simran. Any male would die to get ‘hooked’ for a life-time with this hooker. In one word – OUTSTANDING.
