Mumbai, March 14 (IANS) Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan shared that the pandemic drew his attention to a lot of things and that it gave him the time to contemplate and reflect on his life.
Speaking on the sidelines of a media event on the occasion of his birthday, the 'Dil Chahta Hai' actor said: "Like a lot of people, the pandemic too gave me the time to contemplate and look back on what has happened so far in my life. I consider myself privileged to have reflected on this, it made me realize how fragile life is, how precious it is."
For him, the essence of life is in making the most of it and to live each day to the fullest: "We all will have to depart one day and bid adieu to this world, how and when it would happen, that no one can really say. So, when we know that is inevitable, we should be using our time wisely. We should dedicate our time equally to work, family and ourselves."
The actor also made a remark in jest about being called the Mr. Perfectionist of Bollywood as he said that it's the title that media has given and that he's the most imperfect guy anyone could ever know.
Actress Shriya Pilgaonkar has been roped in for Sneha Taurani's "Bhangra Paa Le". She will be making a special appearance, but "her character is extremely important to the film".
"The way audiences have resonated with the emotion of patriotism, valour and sacrifices of our armed forces has been amazing. As artists, that is the biggest takeaway for us," added the actor, who was seen as Major Vihaan Singh Shergill in the film.
A film registered itself on its prospective audience better with attractive visuals. That is why we had posters, on walls as well as on poles. We had, what was called six-sheeters: they accounted for six standard 30"x40" wall posters pasted together.
With questions being raised on social media over his new movie "India's Most Wanted", director Raj Kumar Gupta insists no political intention has driven the narrative of the film, said to have a theme set in the era of UPA rule.
Suresh Mukund, choreographer of Mumbai's hip-hop dance crew The Kings who have won the American reality television show "World of Dance", says he has been approached to choreograph songs for filmmaker Remo D'souza's next film.
Whether it is Sara Ali Khan, Tara Sutaria and Ananya Panday -- all these young debutantes signed their second film even before their first big Bollywood film hit the big screen.
