Aamir Khan opens up on believing in 'magic' over 'perfectionism', talks about finding God in 'detail'

As a devoted admirer of Aamir Khan, I have been captivated by his enchanting journey through Bollywood for years. His ability to breathe life into characters and weave magic on screen is simply mesmerizing. The man who gave us “Laal Singh Chaddha” and “3 Idiots”, among many others, has always been a trailblazer in the industry.


For nearly four decades, Aamir Khan has been a significant figure in Hindi cinema, starting with his debut in Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak in 1988. Throughout his illustrious career, Aamir has earned acclaim for both his unique approach to filmmaking and his knack for selecting subjects that deeply connect with audiences. Often hailed as Bollywood’s Mr. Perfectionist, Aamir recently shared insights about his beliefs, revealing he values magic rather than perfectionism and sees the divine in meticulous detail.

Recently, Aamir Khan participated in an episode of Chapter 2 podcast hosted by Rhea Chakraborty. During their conversation, the renowned actor opened up about his work approach, emphasizing that he values precision rather than perfection. He also expressed his aim to conjure enchantment on the big screen, and “perfectionism” is not a concept that appeals to him.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I’d put it this way: When people refer to me as a perfectionist, I embrace the label. You see, my films have consistently delivered quality over an extended period, which may have led to this title. To me, the essence of excellence lies in the details – where I believe the divine resides.

In his continued discussion about his work, the 59-year-old superstar stated that while working on a project or task, it’s easy to focus on the larger aspects and overlook minor details. However, unlike many others, he pays meticulous attention to even the tiniest details because he is not driven by the pursuit of perfection, but rather an appreciation for the intricate.

The Laal Singh Chaddha actor continued that he has an interest in “magic” and dropped an inspirational line saying, “Jo cheezein magical hoti hain wo aksar perfect nahin hoti (Anything which is magical aren’t likely to be perfect).”

Alongside his statement, Aamir expressed his faith in the power of magic rather than striving for perfection. He further mentioned that as long as he hasn’t attained that magical feeling, the actor will not abandon a project halfway.

Aamir Khan was most recently featured in the movie “Laal Singh Chaddha,” directed by Advait Chandan, which came out in 2022. Kareena Kapoor Khan joined him as a leading actress in this film. Currently, Aamir is preparing for his role in R.S. Prasanna’s upcoming production titled “Sitaare Zameen Par.” Alongside Aamir, Darsheel Safary and Genelia D’Souza will play significant roles in the movie as well.
