Netflix's Maharaj actor Junaid Khan recalls Aamir Khan's retiring phase: 'Kiran Rao was...'

Aamir Khan’s son Junaid Khan, who recently made an impressive debut with Netflix’s Maharaj, recalled Aamir Khan talking about his retirement phase asking his son to take over Aamir Khan Productions. The star kid is now bankrolling Pritam Pyaare for the production house.

“Yes, I have. I have been on film sets and behind the camera on the set of PK. I have assisted in ad shoots as well. After we completed the shoot for Maharaj, there was a film we were working on at AKP (Aamir Khan Productions). At that point, Kiran (Rao) was making _Laapataa Ladies_ and dad was going through this whole ‘I-am-retiring phase’, and he even spoke about that (smiles). He told me, ‘I am retiring, why don’t you take over.’ So, that’s the phase when I stepped in. I think I have a decent understanding of production. It’s probably one of the toughest jobs in filmmaking," said Junaid Khan to Times of India.

When asked whether his parents Aamir and Reena Dutta were nervous about his debut, Junaid replied, “Not really (laughs). They weren’t anxious, they were happy for me. They are not anxious people generally, as they have been through all of it and more (being part of the industry for so long). The fact that they weren’t anxious also helped me with everything that was going on with the film. They both liked it. Dad liked it quite a lot He tends to be an easy audience, as he goes in to watch something wanting to enjoy it. My mom is a tougher audience to please."

“He was never on our set. He only came on the first day of the shoot with my three grandparents and then he directly watched the film," added the star kid.
