Aamir Khan reveals his 90-year-old mother Zeenat Khan will make her debut in 'Sitaare Zameen Par': ‘Meri himmat nahi hogi Ammi ko poochne ki'
Aamir Khan has thrilled fans with the recent revelation that his much-awaited film 'Sitaare Zameen Par' will also feature his sister Nikhat Khan and mother Zeenat Khan . While Nikhat is known for her roles in several films, this marks the acting debut of his mother, Zeenat Khan. Aamir opens up about mother Zeenat Khan's debut Speaking at a media interaction held in Mumbai, Aamir opened up about how his mother came to be a part of the RS Prasanna-directed film. He revealed that his mother had never accompanied him to any film shoot before. One day, as he was about to leave for the shoot, she asked him where he was heading and what the film was about. Sitaare Zameen Par | Title Track 'But on the morning of the song shoot, Ammi called and asked, 'Aap kahaan shooting kar rahe hain? Humko bhi aana hai shooting pe aaj.' So, I said, 'Chaliye, aaiye.' I sent her the car, and my sister brought her to the shoot. She came in a wheelchair. It was a joyful wedding song, and we were having fun shooting it while she watched us,' he shared. Zeenat Khan's reaction when Aamir requested to give a shot As Zeenat Khan sat observing the vibrant wedding sequence being filmed, director RS Prasanna had an idea. He asked Aamir whether his mother would consider appearing in the scene as one of the wedding guests. He suggested it would be lovely to have her be part of the song. Aamir admitted that he didn't feel confident asking his mother to act. 'I told him, 'Tu pagal ho gaya hai? Meri himmat nahi hogi Ammi ko poochne ki, ki film mein kaam karo, shot do. She is very ziddi. She is not going to listen. Don't waste your time.' He kept urging me to at least ask her,' he added. The 'PK' actor finally told his mother that Prasanna wanted her in a shot — and to his surprise, she agreed. 'I was shocked! So, she's there in one or two shots. It's the only film of mine that she has ever been a part of.' Visibly emotional, the actor said the experience was priceless for him, especially as his mother will turn 91 just a week before the film's release. Speaking about his sister, Aamir said that Nikhat plays a character in the film and has a couple of scenes. This marks their first on-screen collaboration, and Aamir hinted they may work together again in the future.
