Shahid
Kapoor
is
said
to
be
a
big
fan
of
Aamir
Khan.
Now
he
is
all
set
to
pay
tribute
to
his
favourite
star
in
his
upcoming
movie
Paathshaala.
The
movie's
storyline
resembles
Aamir's
Taare
Zameen
Par
and
has
Shahid
Kapoor
playing
a
teacher
who
comes
to
the
lives
of
some
troubled
children
and
changes
it
for
ever.
The
movie
will
be
be
directed
by
Milind
Ukey
and
will
also
be
the
first
production
for
choreographer
turned
director
Ahmed
Khan.
The
producer
admits
that
his
movie
has
many
similarities
with
Taare
Zameen
Par
but
claims
the
script
was
written
a
year
back.
Ahmed
goes
on
to
add
that
Aamir's
Taare
Zameen
Par
has
had
a
huge
impact
on
how
Bollywood
looks
at
cinema.
The
movie
has
finished
casting
its
kids
and
the
set
has
also
been
prepared
in
the
Film
City.
Ahmed
who
was
a
child
actor
in
Mr
India
feels
he
will
be
able
to
understand
the
mind
of
a
child
artist
better.
It
remains
to
be
seen
whether
Shahid
can
do
a
Aamir
Khan
in
Paathshaala
and
any
of
the
child
artist
can
match
up
to
Darsheel
Safary's
charismatic
performance
in
Taare
Zameen
Par.
