"We
are
very
pleased
that
the
film
is
finally
releasing
now
and
in
fact,
we
are
sitting
in
PVR
cinemas
where
the
press
show
has
just
finished
and
the
second
is
about
to
start.
Couple
of
days
back,
the
entire
cast
and
the
crew
were
tensed
whether
the
film
would
release
or
not
but
we
are
glad
to
announce
that
Ghajini
is
finally
releasing
across
cinemas
today".
These
were
the
words
coming
out
from
Aamir
Khan
immediately
after
the
first
press
screening
of
Ghajini
got
over
at
the
PVR
cinema
in
Juhu
on
Wednesday,
December
24
at
around
7.30pm.
Accompanying
him
was
director
A.R.
Murugadoss
too.
Our
correspondent
was
present
during
the
surprise
visit
of
perfectionist
Khan.
We
get
you
some
interesting
tit
bits
by
the
actor
as
the
media
quiz
him
on
the
film,
his
co-star
Asin,
his
X-mas
celebrations,
his
New
Year
resolutions
and
much
more.
Why
was
this
copyright
issue
brought
up
at
the
last
time?
This
copyright
issue
has
been
with
us
for
quite
some
time
now
and
the
producer
of
the
film
Allu
Arvind
was
trying
to
resolve
the
issue
in
the
court.
The
information
I
have
with
me
was
that
the
hearing
was
over
by
10th
December
but
the
order
came
on
the
23rd
December.
We
appealed
on
the
same
day
and
you
won't
believe
how
happy
I
am
today
that
our
film
is
officially
releasing.
The
producer
has
deposited
Rs.
5
crore
in
the
court
and
there
is
no
stay
on
the
film.
Whoever
has
seen
the
film
are
saying
that
there
is
a
lot
of
violence
shown
in
the
film.
The
response
I've
just
got
before
I
came
in
to
meet
you
all
is
that
the
film
is
being
appreciated
and
the
kind
of
advance
bookings
for
Ghajini
is
the
highest
ever
for
a
Hindi
feature
film
because
it's
four
times
more
than
the
previous
films.
I
am
happy
that
there
is
a
lot
of
excitement
surrounding
the
film.
I
am
waiting
for
the
response
from
the
audience.
How
different
or
difficult
was
it
to
portray
a
character
who
talks
more
with
his
eyes
than
his
mouth?
To
play
the
character
was
very
difficult
but
I
don't
want
to
say
anything
about
my
role.
Please
let
the
audiences
come
out
and
we
will
talk
then.
Normally
a
film
title
is
based
on
the
name
of
a
hero
or
heroine.
This
one
is
based
on
a
villain
called
Ghajini.
The
film
is
called
Ghajini
because
it's
the
only
clue
which
the
hero
has.
That's
the
only
name
he
wants
to
find
and
kill.
What
was
your
biggest
inspiration
while
you
did
Ghajini?
Surya,
the
actor
who
was
in
the
original
Tamil
version
of
the
film
Ghajini.
He
has
done
a
fantastic
job.
After
watching
the
film,
I
was
a
bit
hesitant
whether
to
do
the
film
or
not.
I
was
in
two
minds.
Surya
convinced
me
and
said
that
I
was
the
only
one
who
could
do
justice
to
the
character.
He
pushed
me
to
do
Ghajini.
As
you've
now
got
a
lot
of
hair
cutting
experience
behind
you
and
then
the
legal
hassles
to
face,
do
you
think
aap
baal
baal
bach
gaye?
(laughs)
I
am
feeling
very
relieved
and
nice
to
know
that
there
are
no
more
legal
hassles.
What
have
you
to
say
on
the
paintings
gifted
to
you
by
Salman
Khan
which
Asin
unveiled
three
days
back?
I
am
truly
touched
by
the
gestures
of
Salman
Khan.
He
is
such
a
great
artist
and
I
didn't
know
that
till
I
saw
his
work.
He
has
made
some
amazing
paintings
on
Ghajini
and
I
thank
him
for
that.
How
did
you
relate
those
paintings
with
your
character
in
the
film?
One
of
the
portraits
he
has
made
matches
my
looks
and
the
personality
in
the
film.
The
second
one
is
a
much
conceptualized
version
of
the
same.
Pirated
cd's
and
dvd's
will
be
available
from
day
two
after
the
film
releases.
Aren't
you
angry?
I
am
but
what
can
we
do
about
it.
No
one
is
ready
to
take
action
against
this
crime.
How
true
is
it
that
yourself
and
Salman
are
forming
a
team
or
a
camp
against
SRK?
There
is
no
truth
in
that
at
all.
I
think,
Salman,
Shahrukh
and
me
are
individuals
in
our
own
right.
I
have
a
relationship
with
SRK
and
Salman.
Both
are
friends
and
there
are
no
camps
or
anything
like
that.
Anushka
and
Asin,
both
have
made
their
debut.
Who
do
you
think
will
win
an
award
come
2009?
What
awards
are
you
talking
about
and
to
whom
are
you
asking
this
question!
(Laughs)
Only
our
audiences
can
give
awards,
nobody
else.
How
do
you
intend
to
celebrate
Christmas
this
year?
I
am
going
to
be
at
home
with
my
family
for
Christmas.
With
so
much
goodwill
surrounding
you
in
the
industry
and
your
films
going
to
the
Oscars
and
the
BAFTA's
and
people
talking
good
about
you
and
your
films,
this
time
around,
are
you
ready
to
face
criticism?
I
am
always
open
for
criticism.
What
if
you
get
to
know
that
Ghajini
is
not
up
to
the
mark?
If
people
don't
like
any
of
my
films
then
I
treat
it
as
a
learning
experience.
What
excited
you
to
do
Ghajini?
What
excited
me
about
this
film
was
the
action,
the
story,
the
exciting
screenplay
and
above
all,
the
love
story
in
the
film.
That
really
won
my
heart.
One
of
the
main
reasons
I
did
this
film
was
A.R.
Murugadoss.
When
I
met
him
it
felt
like
meeting
a
kid
who
has
this
toy
in
his
hand.
All
my
expectations
were
fulfilled
after
working
with
him.
He
is
so
clear
and
understands
the
film
so
well
that
it's
really
amazing.
The
Oscar
committee
saw
Taare
Zameen
Par
and
has
praised
it.
What
have
you
got
to
say
about
it?
The
committee
liked
the
film
a
lot
and
the
concerned
person
called
me
to
congratulate
me
on
how
good
Taare
Zameen
Par
was.
That
doesn't
mean
that
we
are
nominated
because
I
am
sure
he
liked
other
films
too.
But
the
fact
that
he
has
taken
the
effort
to
call
was
touching
and
I
am
very
happy
about
it.
Aamir,
I've
lost
a
bit
of
my
memory.
Can
you
please
tell
me
who
was
the
lead
actor
in
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi?
Why
do
you
guys
do
this
to
me
yaar.
You
like
such
things,
don't
you?
One
day
because
of
you,
I'll
be
beaten
up
badly
(laughs).
Who
according
to
you
has
got
the
best
body
in
business
in
Bollywood?
In
male,
it
has
to
be
John
Abraham
and
Hrithik
Roshan
and
in
females
it
has
to
be
Kareena
Kapoor
because
she
is
very
good
looking
and
has
a
great
body.
What
is
your
New
Year
resolution?
I
haven't
yet
thought
about
it.
But
I
will
be
going
to
the
theatres
to
watch
my
film
Ghajini
in
disguise.
Where
and
how
I
am
going
will
be
kept
a
secret
(laughs).
