'Taare Zameen Par is my only release in 2007'

“Taare Zameen Par is my only release for 2007,” disclosed Aamir Khan at the launch of the new collection of Titan Aviator watches inspired by World War II Aircraft at an event held in Mumbai today. “It’s a film about children and hence it is very close to my heart. The shooting has finished and the post production is on. It should release in the latter half of this year,” the perfectionist Khan elaborated.

Nattily dressed in a jeans, T-shirt and half-opened-brown jacket, Aamir looked in great shape. What are your views on year 2006? “It was a good year. Rang De Basanti and Fanaa did very well. I am close to Rang De as it’s a film that affected people strongly. Very few films inspire a generation, move people or start a change. I’m proud to be a part of RDB.” And what about Fanaa? “Fanaa was a blockbuster. It was an entertaining film,” Khan said.

Ask anyone about their choice of an inspiring film based on sports and Lagaan is the universal answer. So, what are Bhuvan’s views on the eve of World Cup? “India will win the World Cup,” he gushed with an excited chuckle in his body language. Your message to the team: Go out there and show the world what we are made of. Give it your best shot.”

Aamir Khan is known to be very selective about the brands he endorses. When the other stars take on any and every offer, he prefers to promote the products he truly believes in. Currently he is associated with Coca Cola, Toyota Innova and Titan. Known for telling a story with all his advertising films, Aamir chose the Titan advertisement as his favourite where he shares the screen space with veteran actress Zohra Sehgal who played his grand mother.
