Indian actor Aamir Khan has delivered many memorable performances during his illustrious forty-year acting career. Whether it’s his cop act in Sarfarosh, his performance as a strong-willed villager in Lagaan, or his performance as a determined father in Dangal, he nailed them all. But according to Aamir Khan, that’s not the case with Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s critically acclaimed social political drama ‘Rang De Basanti’ because the sixty-year-old actor thinks that he could have done one particular scene of the film much better.
The Rang De Basanti Scene Which Still Irritates Aamir Khan
In a recent interview with Fever FM, Aamir Khan confessed that he was not satisfied with his own acting in the scene from Rang De Basanti where DJ and Sue come back after facing the wrath of the police during a peaceful protest. Aamir Khan and Alice Patten begin to eat, and Aamir breaks down in tears. Remember this scene?
What Went Wrong?
So, what happened was that Aamir Khan mentally prepared himself to perform the scene for many days. He was totally in the right zone to perform it. But when he arrived on set to shoot the scene, he was told that, because of some production issues, the scene was postponed and that another scene was to be performed instead. Aamir Khan confessed that after that day, he could never perform that scene as he envisioned it in his mind. Aamir Khan’s performance in that scene was only a faint shadow of what he had imagined. That day, he learned an important thing: when an actor is creatively ready to perform a scene, it’s better not to give attention to practical things.
