People don't know that but it has been years since I have stopped charging a fee. Aamir has proved that he is the real boss of Bollywood. But it is not only a question of numbers. His movie selections, his choice of doing one movie in a year, putting his heart and soul into the role, transforming his body and getting into the skin of the character - all add to the clout. He encourages new talent in the film industry as well.
From working with new directors to introducing new actors - he has done it all in the past few years. Aamir's policy to never enter any films functions or to attend or to receive any awards, including the National Award, also differentiates him from other stars.
In an interview, he said, "If anyone wants to honour a genuine effort, they can take the initiative in doing so. To me, the biggest achievement is getting a good response from the audience. Today, Aamir is a global icon and when we look back, we realise that his journey so far has been incredible. Take a look at Aamir Khan films released since Lagaan : Ashutosh Gowariker's Lagaan was a critical and commercial success.
In fact, this is the only Hindi film that came really close to winning an Oscar. The film also won eight National Film Awards. While the script was a bit weak, Aamir's mustache was certainly fantastic.
Aamir's role in the coming-of-age drama was critically praised, earning him a Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actor. Fanaa : Kunal Kohli's Fanaa with Kajol was one of the highest-grossing films of He said that he was able to make it because he ensured that its budget doesn't cross a certain amount. So all the cost involved -- cast, crew, production -- I don't take any money. When the film releases, at that point I get zero money. Then, the investment is paid back. Now, the producer has recovered his cost.
And then, I go into percentage of profits. There is no way the producer loses any money. So if the film sustains a loss, I don't get paid. The first rupee I earn is when the costs have been recovered. Aamir hasn't starred in a film since Thugs of Hindostan, but will next be seen in Laal Singh Chaddha, the official remake of Hollywood classic Forrest Gump.
Directed by Advait Chandan, the film was delayed because of the pandemic. Let him explain. Ever wondered how Aamir Khan can make films without charging 'a single rupee' upfront? The debate about whether or not it is the No.
Not many doubt his almost magical magnetic ability to make the audiences throng theatres even if the ploy of the movie is inane — say, a rich spoilt dame falling for her Bodyguard, or a Dabangg read: Robin Hood cop mixing personal vendetta with the public good in taking out corrupt politicians.
Nevertheless, the fact remains that Salman Khan remains the top-paid Bollywood star of , 2. Yes, 80 per cent goes to Aamir — which leaves a mere fifth of the cream for the actual producers to share among themselves! The actor the only Khan actually worthy of being called an actor — the rest are all stars took home a neat Rs45 crore Dh30 million for 3 Idiots and is therefore the distant second in the salary sweepstakes. What he did manage for his latest tinseltown wonder Rowdy Rathore was Rs45 crore Dh30 million — exactly what Aamir got for 3 Idiots, but then, Aamir will perhaps rake in much more with the 80 per cent profits from Talaash.
