Looks like Bollywood A-lister Aamir Khan was a perfectionist even at the beginning of his career. While male actors were queuing up to work with megastar Sridevi in the late ’80s and early ’90s, Aamir, on the other hand, decided to give it a miss despite getting an opportunity to share screen space right after his blockbuster debut ‘Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak.’
The Bollywood heavyweight, who was in his early 20s at the time of his debut, refused to work with Sridevi, and the reason behind it will leave you amused. The now 58-year-old actor became an overnight sensation after he delivered a hit with his debut film in the year 1988. While the filmmakers decided to cash in on the opportunity with an intention to rope Aamir and Sridevi together, the former decided to look the other way.
According to a report in Bollywood Life, the ‘3 Idiots’ star and Sridevi even posed together for a photo shoot which might have been the beginning of a new pair in B-Town. However, as per the grapevine, Aamir apparently developed cold feet as he felt that the audience might not like their pair since she looked older than him. Reports alleged that the actor thought it was not the right time to do a film with the actress since he just did ‘Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak’ where he portrayed the role of a college student. And that he was more interested in doing roles closer to his age.
