Nana Patekar Advises Aamir Khan to Keep Working in Films
Nana Patekar’s Vanvas Released; Aamir Khan’s Upcoming Projects Announced
Aamir Khan recently spoke candidly about his bad habits, admitting that he is extremely lazy and undisciplined. In an interview with Nana Patekar, Aamir shared that while he prioritizes time and discipline during his film projects, he doesn’t give the same importance to time in his personal life.
When asked by Nana Patekar if he has any bad habits, Aamir responded, “I am very undisciplined and lazy. I go to the film set on time and maintain discipline in my professional life, but I am extremely lazy in my personal life.”
Aamir also revealed that he has quit drinking alcohol and now only smokes. “I used to drink a lot, sometimes all night long, but I’ve stopped drinking now,” he said. He acknowledged that he tends to indulge in excess, saying, “I am an extreme person, whatever I do, I do it excessively. I know it’s not a good habit, and I realize I’m doing something wrong, but I can’t stop myself.”
Nana Patekar, in response, advised Aamir to continue working in films, describing them as his “medicine.” Aamir mentioned that he had initially planned to do one film a year but now has a film set to release in three years.
Meanwhile, Nana Patekar’s latest film Vanvas has been released. In this movie, he plays an elderly man who is abandoned by his children and left to roam the streets of Varanasi. The film also features Utkash Sharma, Rajpal Yadav, Ashwini Kalsekar, and Simrit Kaur. Directed by Anil Sharma, Vanvas was released in theaters on December 20, 2024.
On the other hand, Aamir Khan’s upcoming film Sitare Zameen Par has begun shooting and is expected to release in 2025. In addition, Aamir is producing Lahore 1947, starring Sunny Deol, his son Junaid Khan, and Sai Pallavi in key roles.
