Pakistan’s renowned actor and filmmaker, Amir Khan, has revealed that he made two significant decisions in his illustrious career without reading the script. The 61-year-old actor, known for his perfectionism, admitted to trusting his instincts and emotions while choosing projects.
In a recent interview, Amir Khan shared that he made two rare decisions where he signed on without reading the script. The films in question were “Aatish” and “Tere Mere Hain,” both of which were instrumental in shaping his career.
According to Amir, his father, Tahir Hussain, had a significant role in his decision-making process. He recalled how his father had already greenlit “Aatish” for him and had arranged a meeting with the film’s director, Dev Anand. Amir was hesitant to read the script, but his father’s words of wisdom convinced him to go through with the project.
For “Tere Mere Hain,” Amir’s father had written the script himself. The actor jokingly recalled how his father had given him a three-hour lecture on the importance of trusting his instincts and not questioning the script. Amir laughed, “I told him, ‘Okay, you make the film, I don’t need to read the script.'”
Amir Khan emphasized that he has always relied on his gut feeling and emotions while choosing films. He cited the example of “Taare Zameen Par,” a film that was initially met with skepticism but eventually became one of his most successful projects. The film’s success proved that trusting his instincts was the right decision.
This unique approach to decision-making has contributed to Amir Khan’s illustrious career, which spans over four decades. With numerous awards and accolades to his name, the actor continues to inspire new generations of filmmakers and actors in Pakistan.
