Aamir Khan to play a cannibal

Aamir Khan is one perfectionist actor in B-Town who's been making one meaningful after the other. While his contemporaries have run after superstardom and starred in senseless money making flicks, Aamir has made sure he does his own thing and also stands out.

In between he's also mocked all the high and mighty superstars, in his own intelligent way. Now the buzz is that the actor is set to do something different again by playing a cannibal in his next home production.

Apparently Aamir was hunting for an interesting script for a long time and finally zeroed in on the idea of playing a psychic man-eater. Now that's something really innovative. We're sure that the others who love to be secure and do the same things again and again wouldn't have dared to tread an unbeaten track like that.

The movie will in all probability be directed by a top director from the South. Looks like after working with A. R. Murugadoss in Ghajini, Aamir has taken a liking for South directors.

A source has reportedly said, "The actor is busy preparing for the role. To get into the skin of the character, Aamir has been visiting butchers in town to see how they cut meat. Aamir is also on a high-protein non-vegetarian diet to build his muscles for the role. He is also watching the behaviour of all animals very closely to bring in a 'beastly' touch to his character."

When Aamir takes charge, we can rest assured that it'll be something novel and interesting!
