500/1000 rupee notes scrapped? I am not affected, says Aamir Khan

The actor said that since he pays his taxes on time and doesn't have any money with him, he's unaffacted.

Mumbai: Aamir Khan is no novice when it comes to tackling questions from the media. The actor has previously dabbled in the 'art of dodging' with much aplomb.

Aamir, who attended the launch of the song, 'Haanikaarak Bapu,' from his upcoming movie, 'Dangal,' along with child actors Suhani Bhatnagar and Zaira Wasim, was his usual composed self while answering questions posed at them, post the launch.

When one reporter asked him if he was affected by the overnight scrapping of the 500 and 1000 rupee notes by prime minister Narendra Modi, Aamir let out a hearty chuckle, and said he didn't have any money in the first place, to be affected.

"I never have money with me. I was not affected at all. Fortunately, I pay all my taxes. So I was not affected," he said.

Bollywood stars have generally been extremely supportive of the PM's revolutionary move to curb black money, whilst lauding his initiation.
