I don’t see myself in the superstar category: Aamir Khan

Aamir Khan has said he does not consider himself to be one of the ‘superstars’ in the industry, adding that no one calls him a superstar.

“Superstars are people like Amitabh Bachchan and Rajini (Rajnikanth) sir. A superstar is someone who everyone loves and whose work everyone enjoys watching. I don’t see myself falling in that category. No one calls me a superstar” Aamir said at the unveiling of the ‘Secret Superstar’ teaser.

Aamir, who is one of the biggest crowd-pullers in the industry today, has quite often said that he doesn’t carry the ‘aura’ of a superstar like some of his contemporaries do.

The actor will be seen in Nitesh Tiwari’s upcoming film ‘Dangal’, which releases in theatres on December 23 2016.

  • Its Kind of true because people don’t come to see his movies to see him but to see the film he is presenting.

  • On the other hand when you go to south, each hero has a unique and crazy name for himself.

    Superstar Rajinikanth
    Megastar Chiranjeevi
    Powerstar Pawan Kalyan
    Mega Powerstar Ram Charan
    Stylish Star Allu Arjun
    Rebel Star Prabhas

    And the list of idiotic names goes on. But very few like Rajinikanth truly deserve that tag.

  • He certainly is Not a superstar when it comes to performance……….he’s purely character driven then!

    But its his work that makes him the Crowd Puller/Superstar he is in the industry!

  • Of course you are the biggest superstar the current generation has. You are much better than any Khan, cause your film has massages that we all want to give other people but fail to do so. No other Khan comes closer to your Superstardom. Salman could not break your all time records for a long time now, and I’m sure he will not be able to do so. Cheers!

  • But you’re the most dedicated actor and only superstar to give 4 all time highest grossers in a span of 7 years.
    It’s just your humbleness that you don’t like being considered a superstar

  • am being a salman khan fan admit that aamir is a genuine superstar and down to earh person…live your humbleness …you are a real super hero and super star aamir bhai

  • U forgot to mention Salman Khan. What a beef! Amitabh Bachchan, Rajnikanth and Salman Khan are Megastars and bollywood legends whom everyone loves and worships. U are yet to fall into that category, still far from it. Am glad that u Aamir sir has realized that.

  • Nobody Sees Even, In Fact…

    You are a small actor who survive due to Xmas…

    Yes, You are Xmas made star not Superstar…

  • Its true that Aamir is not on the level of stardom on which Rajesh khanna Amitabh bachan were and which srk and salman are but that does not means that he is not a superstar.

    We all know he has highest atbb and athg and 2nd highest hgoty and hgotd along with one of the best hit and success ratio among senior actors he has highest grosser in India overseas and worldwide, he also gave highest day 1st day/weekend and week many times and he is founder of almost every club Such things are not possible without stardom.

    I think he is similar to Dilip kumar who not only had excellent acting skills but also was a superstar though not bigger than rajesh or amitabh similarly aamir is a superstar but not bigger than srk or salman

    ALONG WITH EXCELLENT ACTING SKILLS AAMIR ALSO HAS SUPERSTARDOM, GREAT SCRIPT SENSE AND MARKETING SKILLS
    HE IS A LEGEND AND WILL ALWAYS BE RATED AS ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL ACTORS BOTH COMMERCIALLY AND CRITICALLY WHO HAS MANY FANS WORLDWIDE??

  • To be Honest.. Among all these Stars only SALMAN KHAN looks like a superstar… The way he walks.. His Charisma.. His Aura.. Even the way he hold his mobile or carry that bracelet is unique..

  • Such a modest guy….THREE LEGENDS who carry 3 different eras of HINDI CINEMA,
    DILIP KUMAR
    AMITABH BACHCHAN,
    AAMIR KHAN
