Saqib
Saleem
who
has
done
only
four
films
till
now
is
for
sure
basking
in
the
compliments
about
being
compared
to
Aamir
Khan
and
Shahrukh.
He
is
undoubtedly
enjoying
it.
While
Aamir
played
a
teacher
in
Taare
Zameen
Par,
SRK
essayed
the
role
of
a
hockey
coach
in
Chak
De
India.
And
soon,
Saqib
will
be
seen
as
a
skating
coach
in
his
forthcoming
film
Hawaa
Hawaai.
"If
people
make
such
a
comparison,
why
should
I
have
a
problem?
I
have
only
done
four
films
and
if
I
am
compared
to
someone
great
like
him
(Aamir
Khan),
it's
a
good
thing
for
me," the
26-year-old
actor
said.
"But
I
am
not
inspired
by
anyone
for
the
character.
It
is
my
interpretation
of
a
young
24-year-old
coach.
Comparisons
will
happen,
but
it
is
a
good
thing
for
me.
They
are
comparing
me
with
Aamir
and
some
also
with
Shah
Rukh
Khan
in
'Chak
De...'.
For
a
young
actor
to
be
compared
to
such
great
(actors)
is
a
great
thing," added
the
'Mere
Dad
Ki
Maruti'
actor.
"It
is
a
sports
film.
This
is
world's
first
film
on
inline
skating.
Ultimately,
it's
an
underdog
story
and
everyone
connects
with
the
underdog.
Like
in
'Jo
Jeeta
Wohi
Sikandar,'
when
Sanju
wins
the
race
it
is
a
sense
of
feeling
for
everyone.
So,
the
audiences
always
connect
with
an
underdog
story,"
added
Saqib.

Hawaai

a
