Aamir crazy for making Dangal says Director

on Oct 22, 2016

Aamir Khan's upcoming film Dangal's trailer has received an overwhelmingly positive response from people from all walks of life. The upcoming biographical sports drama features Aamir, 51, as Mahavir Singh Phogat, who taught wrestling to his daughters Geeta Phogat and Babita Kumari. The trailer of the film was released yesterday. Filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra says a person who is crazy for the art of acting can pull off character like Aamir Khan's in Dangal. He praised Aamir for excelling in preparing for the role of wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat. "I really like Aamir as an artiste. He is excelling himself," Chopra told reporters on being asked how he found the trailer. Asked if Aamir was setting a trend in an industry where often actors hesitate to play characters older to their age, Vidhu Vinod Chopra said "Aamir is a mad man. We call him 'idiot' like you saw in 3 Idiots. So, only he can do this. If you aren't that then you can make a lot of money and leave the world but 'idiots' (people crazy for their work) remain forever."
