Aamir Khan is currently awaiting the release of his upcoming flick Laal Singh Chaddha, which also has Kareena Kapoor Khan in the main role along with Mona Singh and Naga Chaitanya. Aamir Khan Productions, Kiran Rao, and Viacom18 Studios are producing the movie together. It is an official Hindi remake of the Tom Hanks–led 1994 Hollywood film Forrest Gump. He recently appeared in the 2018 film Thugs Of Hindostan, marking his return to the big screen after a four-year break.
In an interview with YouTuber Prajakta Koli, he revealed, “Many people feel that when you are a film producer’s son, you are rich. My father (Tahir Hussain) was not a good businessman. He always lost money. He made successful films but did not make money.”
The 3 Idiots actor recently opened up about his family’s financial condition when he was a kid. He revealed that his father had taken out several loans at a period when the interest rate was 36%, and there was a moment when they were on the verge of going ‘almost homeless’. His school offered affordable tuition; it was 6 for the sixth standard, 7 for the seventh, 8 for the eighth, and 10 for the tenth standard.
He further added that his name would frequently appear on the list of students who haven’t paid their tuition, which was embarrassing when they announced their names in front of the school during the assembly. They were not financially well off, but other than that, they had a good upbringing.
Aamir went on to say that he was good at sports and was a tennis player who was ranked in Maharashtra. He also said that he was very careful not to burden his parents financially, so when he won tournaments and received prize money, he would give it to his mother and then use the money to purchase the tennis shoes and t-shirt he needed when he needed them.
