Aamir Khan revealed in a recent interaction that he readily agreed to do the cameo without even listening to the script. The actor stated that the offer came from director Lokesh Kanagaraj, and he didn’t hesitate at all.
“When Lokesh approached me, I immediately said yes. I didn’t even ask for the script because I trust his vision and admire Rajini sir immensely,” said Aamir Khan.
This unusual approach is a rare move for the actor known for his script-centric decisions, underscoring his respect for Rajinikanth and Lokesh.
