Aamir
Khan
was
the
surprise
guest
at
the
post-premiere
party
of
Slumdog
Millionaire
at
the
J
W
Marriott
on
Thursday
night!
Everyone
at
the
premiere
of
SM
was
in
great
spirits
after
the
Oscar
nominations
were
announced.
After
the
premiere,
Danny,
Anil
Kapoor,
the
Fox
Studio
team,
Vidhu
Vinod
Chopra
and
wife
Anupama,
Javed
Akhtar
and
Shabana
Azmi,
Shekhar
Kapur,
Sudhir
Mishra
and
Baba
and
Tanvi
Azmi
decided
to
celebrate.
Danny
asked
Aamir,
who
was
at
the
premier,
to
join
them.
Anil
admits,
"We
popped
champagne.
Aamir
is
very
happy
for
the
SM
team.
Shekhar
said
SM
was
the
biggest
Indian
hit
worldwide
and
would
touch
1000
crore.
Apparently,
it's
already
crossed
400
crore." It
was
baffling
of
Khan
to
celebrate
when
his
own
film
didn't
make
the
cut
at
Oscars,
"A
really
large-hearted
guy
will
feel
happy
for
others
and
Aamir
is
that."
Anil
was
thrilled
at
the
turnout
at
the
premiere.
"Everyone
I
called
came.
I
missed
my
Chembur
friends
three
of
whom
have
died
Babban
(who
drowned),
Rajeev
Khanna
(Gul),
Guru
(who
succumbed
to
alcohol)
and
Naresh
Jhangiani.
They
were
my
childhood
friends.
Every
year,
I
attend
all
the
festivals
there
and
whenever
there's
a
big
function
in
Chembur,
I
go."
Anil
has
a
special
for
the
thespian
actor,
Dilip
Kumar.
"Yusufsaab
has
always
been
there
for
me
right
from
my
Mashaal
days.
I
invited
him
and
Sairaji
personally.
I
always
go
to
their
house
and
meet
them
over
a
cup
of
tea,
samosas,
pattice
and
Yusuf
saab's
favorite
sponge
cake.
Youngsters
today
should
take
a
lesson
from
him
on
how
to
take
part
in
other
people's
happiness.
Dilipsaab
is
the
greatest
living
legend.
It's
a
risk
for
Dilipsaab
to
go
out
of
his
home
but
he
always
makes
the
effort.
May
God
give
him
a
much
longer
life
and
may
he
live
for
100
years..."
