I gave a screen-test for my role in Secret Superstar: Aamir Khan

The actor revealed that the script immediately convinced him, but not the role he was offered.

Mumbai: Aamir Khan is yet to come on the big-screen with his wrestler act in the highly anticipated ‘Dangal,’yet he’s already out with the teaser of his upcoming production, ‘Secret Superstar’.

The film, which has his former manager Advait Chandan debuting as a director, also stars him, whilst having his Dangal girl, Zaira Wasim, in the lead.

However, like with ‘Dhobhi Ghat,’ Kiran Rao’s maiden directorial, he will not be the primary protagonist.

Aamir, however, revealed a shocker, saying that he gave a screen-test for his role in the film.

“I was very convinced from the first narration itself that I want to produce the film. But I wasn’t too convinced when Advait said he wants me to do this role. The role is very different from me and I was sure I didn’t want to disturb the film in any way. So I informed Advait that I’d like to give a screen-test. When we all saw the screen-test, then we all were convinced that I could pull it off,” he said at the teaser release event of the film.

Well, he’s called the perfectionist for a reason, isn’t he?
