The underworld’s influence on Bollywood during the 1990s is an open secret. While many industry insiders either remained silent or complied with the underworld’s demands during that period, a few stood their ground—and one of them was Aamir Khan. In a recent interview, the actor shared an incident where he turned down an invitation from underworld figures to attend a party in Dubai.
Aamir Khan recalls refusing underworld party invite in the ’90s: “You can take me by force, but I won’t come willingly”
In a conversation with The Lallantop, Aamir recalled, “They tried very hard, saying they’d pay me whatever I wanted or help me with any work I needed done. I said I still wouldn’t come. Then they changed their tone and said, ‘Now you have to come because it has been announced there and it’s become a matter of prestige.’ That was the last meeting we had.”
He added, “I told them, ‘You’ve been meeting me for over a month now and I’ve told you from the beginning that I won’t come. I still won’t come. But you are powerful people. If you wish, you can come anytime—beat me, hit me on the head, tie me up and take me wherever you want. You can take me by force, but I will not go willingly.’”
On the professional front, Aamir Khan recently returned to the big screen with Sitaare Zameen Par, directed by R.S. Prasanna. The film, released on June 20, marks his comeback after a near-retirement announcement following the underperformance of Laal Singh Chaddha
