Actor Imran Khan has been away from the film industry for over a decade at this point; his last project was Katti Batti (2015), alongside Kangana Ranaut. Meanwhile, his uncle Aamir Khan is well into the fourth decade of his career, having recently co-produced Laapattaa Ladies,<\/a> and starred in films such as Laal Singh Chaddha, Thugs of Hindostan, Secret Superstar and Dangal. Imran talked about his uncle\u2019s filmography, and admitted that some of Aamir\u2019s films from the 90s haven\u2019t aged well.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Filmfare, Imran talked about Aamir\u2019s impact on his career, life, and journey as an actor. But he admitted that there are some Aamir films that he doesn\u2019t like, especially his films from the 90\u2019s era. \u201cYou know, there are some of his 90s films that have not aged well, and when you look at them through a modern lens, they are kind of problematic. There are moments that are quite uncomfortable. Raja Hindustani, which was a staggering hit, is very uncomfortable to watch. You look at it and you go, \u2018This is wrong; we are not supposed to,\u2019 so there are a fair amount of 90s films that are uncomfortable by today\u2019s measures.\u201d<\/p>\n

Raja Hindustani (1996) was directed by Dharmesh Darshan, and apart from Aamir, the cast of the film included Karisma Kapoor, Suresh Oberoi, Johnny Lever, Farida Jalal, Navneet Nishan and Mohnish Behl.<\/p>\n

Imran also appreciated Aamir\u2019s help and guidance through his career. \u201cIn my own way, I am tremendously led by him. Through life, whenever I am facing a dilemma, I think, \u2018What would Aamir do?\u2019 I may not exactly approach it in the same way as him; a lot of our methodologies and beliefs are different, but at its core, he has always been driven by integrity and authenticity. Your guiding principle must come from what is morally justifiable and then what is the most truthful and most authentic way that we can render this story. Those are kind of the core guiding principles which I have learnt from him, which I still adhere to.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aamir has produced several of Imran\u2019s films under the banner of Aamir Khan<\/a> Productions such as Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na (2008) and Delhi Belly (2011).<\/a> Imran Khan<\/a> has long been rumoured to be making a comeback to acting, while Aamir has several projects in the pipeline, like Sitaare-Zameen Par and Coolie.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
