Not interested in breaking records, want love of audience: Aamir

Aamir KhanBollywood actor-filmmaker Aamir Khan features in one of the most awaited films of the year, “Dhoom 3”, he says he is not thinking about how many records it will break.

Reacting to reports stating that he has claimed that “Dhoom 3” will surpass the business of Shah Rukh Khan’s “Chennai Express”, Aamir said in a statement:”I am not interested in breaking records. I am an artist, and what gives me a high is to entertain my audience, to give them a good time, and to satisfy them emotionally.”

Aamir’s last release “Talaash” was appreciated for his performance, but the movie couldn’t mint too much moolah. The actor believes the challenge does not lie in building numbers at the box office, it lies in winning the audience’s adulation.

“I want to earn the love of my audience. That is what I am thirsty for. I like to challenge myself and do work that I have not done. I like to surprise my audience.These are the things that I am interested in,” said the versatile actor, who will be seen in a negative role in “Dhoom 3”.

Aamir has just returned to Mumbai after month-long training schedule in Australia where he had gone to learn a special dance form.

“Dhoom 3”,which is the third instalment of the Yash Raj Films’ franchise, also stars Abhishek Bachchan, Uday Chopra and Katrina Kaif. It will release on December 20th.

  • I love to watch quality cinema..that’s why I love Aamir the most.bt as a fan I want u to destroy all the records.Because we believe Aamir is the best star actor India has ever produced.

  • only D3 has potential of breaking ce record i am srk fan if d3 didnot than ce will remain for 2,3 years
    k3 and mental collection wil be around 190 cr not more than this

  • Dhoom 3 is surely going to be a winner on both the fronts: gigantic collections (probably the highest ever collections for any bollywood movie) and millions & millions of hearts and love of the audience. Bumper blockbuster is awaited!

  • Do not count your chickens before they are hatched. Though Dhoom is a blockbuster franchise, I am skeptical about Dhoom 3 because it is directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya (Tashan). Aamir is the only good actor in the cast. Abhishek Bachchan, Uday Chopra and Katrina Kaif are really poor actors. It is quite likely Chennai Express record might not be broken by Dhoom 3.

  • @rowdyBoss and now you akki or sallu fans suddenly thinking for class performance Not B.O haha you all frustrated By record express chennai express-227cr srk rocks haha

  • @rowdyboss, we srkians are least concerned about bo records, those were you people who claimed that srk can never deliver a blobkbuster or can make any record and blah blah… But when he did it, just you people are giving excuse that srkians are talking about bo numbers. Get well soon, bcoz ce is past now. You should get over of the shock of ce now. And i know records are meant to be broken. So krish3 will surely go past ce, but i am not sure about dhoom3. So gud luck.

  • WE love to watch quality cinema like Param Para, Love Love Love, Dewana Mujh Sa Nahin, Jawani Zindabad, Afsana Payar Ka, Isi Ka Nam Zindagi, Daulat Ki Jang, Tum Mere Ho, Rakh, Atank Hi Atank, Bazi, Mela, Mann, Mangal Panday, Earth 1947, Dhobi Ghat etc

  • @nipun, aamir does just ok acting in good movies with excellent script, whereas salman and srk do good acting in average movies with below average script. This is the difference between aamir an sk,srk. Now coming to hrithik, in terms of acting i just found koi mil gaya, jodha akbar and ghuzarish as classics. Whereas for srk the list is too long which contains baazigar, khkn, dil se, ashoka, devdas, kal ho na ho, swades, veer zara, cdi, mnik.. So hrithik is way behind. No offence to you n hrithik.

  • @imtiazlvzu. If Aamir is best actor of India then Kamal Hassan, Mohanlal, Amitabh Bachan, Irfan Khan, Nasruddin shah and thousands of other actors are foreigners. Hrithik Roshan is miles ahead of over rated Aamir khan. Even Sharukh khan is ahead of Aamir khan. Ask Aamir do to Darr, Devdas, Ashoka, MNIK or tell me 1 character of Aamir khan where he is been praised for his performance like darr, swadesh, chakde India did for sharukh or koi mil gaya, lakshya, Jodha akbar did for Hrithik. Aamir khan is always been praised for script selection. If John Abraham do another 2 or 3 more films like Madras Cafe then John Abraham will be next best actor after Aamir khan

  • @sameera:hrithik is way behind? ?plz,don’t joke.
    Okay,srk is a good actor,but hro’s has played more different kinds of roles and don’t do over acting.btw srk’s my 2nd fav actor.
    And Salman can’t act like hro. .even he cann’t complete with ranbir in acting.he always give less expression.

  • Yes as an actor and also as a producer Aamir khan is not interested in breaking records otherwise he would have not made and acted in great movies like “Lagaan”,”RDB”,”DCH”,”TZP”,”Peepli live” etc

  • Aamir khan is not interested in breaking records bcoz the actors who r interested in breaking records they do these things
    1)Guest appearence of other superstars to make their fans come in theatres
    2)Paying unnecessary tribute to other superstars in their movie
    3)Asking other producers to postpone their movie so that their movie gets open week.
    4)Taking other superstars names for publicity of their movie
    5)Trying to create controversy during movie release to get people’s attention
    6)Always working with big banners
    Aamir khan has never done these things in his whole career.

  • Here is the list of no.1 actors

    Bollywood !
    King and big fan

  • @sameer. well said Bro. we never were behind records. it was these SALMAN fans who were behind records. SRK as usual gives quality cinema with ample amount to act. now that Chennai express has created almost all records these nonsense bhai fans r getting in secure and saying boxoffice is not every thing. man really there is something called double standards.
    but u all r HEIGHTS OF DOUBLE STANDARDS.
    as far acting goes I bet Don2 would be way way better than so called per FAKE tionists DHOOM 3.
    AND YES CORRECT AS THE POSTER SAYS
    this year will end on a dhoom when DHOOM 3 would be thrashed by the critics and the audience on par.

  • this man went on roof top to show everyone the record msde by bodyguard & thus salman is number 1( indirectly saying srk isnt). as his record is thrased nw, this hypocrite is trying to show that quality matters to him. such a insecure this looser is, nw will ride on a brand created by hrithik.

  • 100cr 200 cr 300cr with d3 founderof club baap baap hota hain beta beta baki sab pani cum chai uske samne if dont like him go nd watch srk saas bahu flims nd salman remakes idiots

  • Hahaha suddenly Amir fans started about quality cinema. When srk destroyed box office records. No doubt Amir is good actor, respect him but fact is that srk is miles ahead in terms of acting. Srk has done various kind of role.
    Bazigar, daar
    Ddlj dtph, KKHH
    Devdas kal ho na ho veer Zara
    Don don2
    Ramjane josh
    Chakhde swades mink
    khkn yes boss badashah

  • What are the requirements of blockbuster film? First is script and when Amir does a film he makes sure that the script is super strong.. So script is done..
    Next comes actors.. AAMIR alone can make a film hot on the trade but with Katrina and Abhishek , the starcast is impressive.. So actors are good..
    Third comes Director Now here I want to say Aamir has done very few films with top directors after 2000. He has worked with new directors like Farhan Akhtar, Auhotosh Gowarikar, ARMurgados and with directors who have given flops like Rakesh mehra, etc.. So for him directors are either new or who has given a flop So Victor as a director will do a great job and make a grand comeback after a debacle like Tashan..
    Now coming to music who better than Pritam for a superb action movie..
    Finally the banner its Yrf and its the biggest production house of the country and so quality of the movie is hollywood level..
    And as for promoting the film, we all know abut the marketing genius of Aamir..
    So with all th factors going right.. The movie will take an earth shattering start and will surely emerge as the biggest grosser of indian cinema…
