Actor Aamir Khan recently opened up about his son Junaid Khan’s journey in the film industry, stating that setbacks will only make him stronger. In an interview with Instant Bollywood, Aamir candidly discussed Junaid’s career, his strengths and weaknesses, and the lessons that come with failure.
A Strong Start for Junaid Khan
Despite his latest film Loveyapa failing at the box office, Aamir remains optimistic about Junaid’s future. He expressed that Junaid has had a solid beginning in Bollywood. “He has made a good start. He has done a good job, and that’s all that matters. His biggest strength is that he gets into his character. I feel he is a good actor. But, he has his weaknesses too,” Aamir shared.
The Dangal actor playfully remarked on Junaid’s interview skills, saying, “When he gives interviews, he gives really strange answers. But, he will learn. And what I like about him is that he likes to make his own way, makes his own mistakes, and learns on his own. He is a good guy.”
Junaid’s latest project, Loveyapa, failed to impress audiences, but Aamir sees the silver lining. “He is a hardworking guy. Everyone has to face challenges in their life. Like his last film wasn’t successful. It’s good in a way. It will make him tougher, it will make him work harder. I think he is going well.”
Aamir and Junaid: Like Father, Like Son
Reflecting on their similarities, Aamir shared that he and Junaid have a lot in common. “We are very similar. I was very shy like him. Even I was bad at interviews. We are both very weird people. Our value systems are very strong. We fear stepping away from our value system. We do very impractical things to safeguard it. But what seems impractical to others is very important for us.” Aamir also described how both of them are equally stubborn. “Both me and Junaid are very ‘adial’ (stubborn), and it has nothing to do with our success. Junaid is not even successful yet, but he is still just like I am.”
Junaid Khan made his acting debut with Netflix’s Maharaj and was last seen in Loveyapa. Looking ahead, he will star in Ek Din, produced by Aamir Khan, alongside acclaimed actress Sai Pallavi
