AAMIR KHAN
Shammi Uncle Is My Lucky Mascot
By MovieTalkies.com, 03, June 2008

Aamir Khan You have released the music of 'Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na' at Shammi Kapoor's residence. What is the reason for not choosing a five star hotel as a venue? I think Shammi uncle has always proved to be my lucky mascot, right from the time I started my career as an actor with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak. I sought his blessings even back then and have continued to do so, right till my directorial debut, Taare Zameen Par. I have always had his support. As this is my first film as producer, which does not have me as an actor, I needed his blessings very badly. So I found his house to be the perfect venue for the music launch of Jaane Tu. How do you look at the film. Is Jaane Tu a launch pad for Imraan or is it primarily, from your prespective, an Aamir Khan production. Or are both aspects equally important for you? No, if you see the first promo of Jaane Tu, you will have a clear idea that it is definitely not the launch pad for Imraan. Abbas (Tyrewala) came to me with the script, and I really liked the concept. My motive is to make a quality product and I want people to believe that whichever film carries my name, will have that stamp of quality. An Aamir Khan Productions should symbolize, in people's minds, something, which is really interesting and worth watching. I want to build a certain level or a brand name for A.K Productions. That's the idea behind establishing Aamir Khan Productions, as I have established my name in the film industry. What was your contribution to the film? My biggest contribution has been to bring Mansoor back. We have all been trying to get him back to the industry for quite a while now. I succeeded this time as he is also very fond of Imraan. I needed his help desperately as I was very busy with Taare Zameen Par and wanted someone to give full attention to this film. You are known to follow a strict discipline when it comes to work. So were you the same during the making of Jaane Tu as well? No, it's not so. It's just that I just expect my work should be done properly and on time. As a producer, I am trying to give the film the best possible release as I truly believe that it's a very different film. It's full of energy and youthfulness, as Abbas is just 30. But do you know, he was the oldest guy on the sets of the film? So, you can just imagine the energy that this film has. The release of Jaane Tu is clashing with that of Love Story 2050. Both are the debut films for their respective lead actors, Imraan and Harman Baweja. So was the clash really necessary? Harry is a very good friend, and we tried everything possible to shift the date of release but couldn't do so. But I don't think it really matters. There are so many movies coming up that it is almost impossible to find a date when you can release only your film. In the past, both Lagaan and Gadar were released on the same day and both films did well at the box office and went down well with audiences too. So it's no big deal. What do you feel about the music of the movie? A.R. Rahman has done a fantastic job in this film. After a long time, he has given such wonderful youthful music. The song 'Papu Cant Dance' is a very humorous song and has a very good concept. If you ask me to name a favourite, then I would have to say that it is 'Kabhi Kabhi Aditi'. Rahman's music and Abbas' s lyrics: I would say the result has been rocking! What was the feedback that you received after the special screening of Jaane Tu? After the screening, everybody found a lot of similarities between me and Imraan. But I must say that Imraan is far better looking than me and will go a long way. But yes, he has a lot to learn still. I am always there with him, and will always support him as long as I can. But otherwise, he has to walk his own way.
