Aamir Khan admits he was not enthusiastic about wife
Kiran Rao's "Dhobi Ghat" script. But after the story reading session, he says he was so impressed that he fell in love with this "really talented woman" again.
"I didn't want Kiran to finish '
Dhobi Ghat.' Which is not a nice thought, but she did finally complete the script. Then she said she wants me to listen to it. I said you have to read it out to me," Aamir told reporters Sunday here at conference for their film "Dhobi Ghat".
Aamir and Kiran were here for the screening of "Dhobi Ghat" at the ongoing Toronto International Film Festival.
"I said let's go to Kannur, where my filmmaker cousin Mansoor (Khan) lives, and Mansoor and I will get together (to listen to the script). Hoping that Mansoor doesn't like it as well, I thought I will at least have the numbers on my side. I was really terrified of the script," Aamir, 45, said.
"But when she began the narration with Mansoor, his wife and I listening to it, I was so fascinated by what she had written. It is one of the best scripts I have ever read. It is so delicate and beautiful. The characters are so well written. The lines are so well written. Her characters speak in such a different and unique voice," said Aamir.
After hearing the complete script, Aamir fell in love with Kiran all over again.
