Aamir Khan: I Directed Only One Film!

Aamir Khan, often dubbed 'Mr Perfectionist,' has definitively refuted claims that he secretly directs most of his films. Speaking recently, Khan stated that his sole directorial venture in his 38-year career is the critically acclaimed film 'Taare Zameen Par.' He attributed the success of his other movies to the collective efforts of talented directors, writers, and technicians.

Khan elaborated that the media has frequently perpetuated rumors of him ghost-directing, a notion he finds absurd. He believes that if he were directing, his films would exhibit a similar style, which is not the case. He cited diverse films like 'Lagaan,' 'Rang De Basanti,' 'Sarfarosh,' and '3 Idiots' as evidence of varying directorial visions.

Reflecting on his career, Khan mentioned that after his early success, he learned to choose scripts carefully and focus on one project at a time. He views filmmaking as a collaborative process where he contributes as a team member, not as the primary director. He concluded by acknowledging his abilities while stressing that filmmaking involves many uncontrollable factors, and sometimes excessive control is detrimental.
