It’s a matter of pride for Aamir Khan that Taare Zameen Par is his third film that has made it to Oscars as India’s authorized entry. So does that mean Aamir is the true Baadshah of Bollywood?

“If Shah Rukh hears this, he’s going to be really upset,” Aamir told.

Inquire him about the film’s chances at the Oscars and he tells, “Whether we win an Oscar or not, we’ll definitely make the jury members cry.” Wise answer.

But why does he spurn the awards back home in India?

“It’s not a question of Indian or international. Just a few weeks ago, I went to pick a Kolhapuri Award at Chennai. I’ve been to the National Awards as well. So, it’s inaccurate to say I shun Indian awards. As far as the Oscars are concerned, they’re a platform that gives you the opportunity of addressing a larger audience. When your film gets nominated for the Oscars, people who aren’t familiar with Indian cinema go to the world cinema section at a DVD store and pick it up,” he justifies.

Aamir is brilliant on every front!
