We all want to make good films but sometimes it doesn’t happen.”
“I’m a team player. If my director has gone wrong somewhere then even I have gone wrong. I believe in the director and if he has gone wrong, I have also gone wrong. There is no problem to accept that. We will learn from our mistakes. The audience has come to watch the film on my name, for that audience, I feel fully and personally responsible,” said Dangal actor.
When asked to Aamir did Thugs Of Hindostan faced a harsh backlash that came to its sway. “Many came to me saying that they liked the film. I think the audience has the full right to say exactly what they want and they can be harsh in that criticism, that is their right. If there was a certain amount of harshness, then so be it. It has been a long time that I have not given any flop film (laughs)… good that audience also got a chance to remove their frustration,” Aamir said.
