One part of Amit Trivedi still curses himself for it. But like Aamir himself, the music director will not do more than one film at a time. So ‘No One Killed Jessica’ it is, for now.
Aamir Khan’s 3 Idiots is a pathbreaking movie, for one small detail. The introduction of a mainstream Hindi film hero who’s not from north India.
I asked him for some time, one on one. And explained my contact sheet idea. He wasn’t open to it.
How he understands his audience, how he uses his gift of curiosity, how he managed to tame the media and why he is a different man.
He is a megastar like none before. And he knows it. Or does he, really? Is his claim to the top slot in Hindi cinema as secure as is made out to be? And has he lost touch with the times?
