Aamir Khan Reveals His Father Was Once Almost Bankrupt: “People Would Call & Ask For Their Money”

Aamir Khan is one of the top-most actors of our country today. Not only is he one of the most popular celebrities in India, but he is also someone who is earning a lot of money. But can you ever imagine that there was a time when his father, Tahir Hussain, was in a huge financial crisis because of which his entire family, including a young Aamir, was almost on the roads?

Recently, Mr Perfectionist revealed his struggle story during a media interaction. Basically, one of his most-loved films, Lagaan, turned 20-years-old. Aamir, who had earlier claimed that he would never become a producer, ended up producing this film which eventually became one of the biggest films in Indian cinema. It was on this occasion that he opened up about how his father could not make it big as a producer.

Aamir Khan claimed that his aversion to being a producer arose from the financial difficulties he’d seen his father, Tahir Hussain, deal with. In a media interaction, he said, “I come from a film family, I’ve seen my uncle make movies, I’ve seen my father making movies. My father was a very enthusiastic producer, a good producer. But he didn’t know how to do business, so he never made any money. And he only had problems. One film took eight years to make, and another took three years.”
