Superstar
Aamir
Khan
says
filmmaking
does
excite
him,
but
currently
he
wants
to
focus
on
acting.
The
54-year-old
actor,
who
made
directorial
debut
with
Taare
Zameen
Par,
said
he
will
quit
acting
once
he
decides
to
turn
full-fledged
filmmaker.
"I
am
inclined
towards
filmmaking
and
I
coincidentally
directed
'Taare
Zameen
Par'.
I
have
been
in
love
with
filmmaking
and
acting
and
I
can't
alienate
the
two
but
what
I
can
say
right
now
is
that
I
began
my
career
as
an
actor
and
it
excites
me.
"The
moment
I
become
a
full-fledged
filmmaker
I
will
stop
acting.
Right
now,
I
don't
want
to
stop
acting,
that's
why
I
am
holding
back
the
director
inside
me," Aamir
told
reporters
on
Thursday.
As
a
producer,
Aamir
has
backed
films
like
"Lagaan",
"Taare
Zameen
Par",
"Jaane
Tu
Yaha
Jaane
Na",
"Peepli
Live",
"Dhobi
Ghat",
"Delhi
Belly",
"Talaash",
"Dangal"
and
"Secret
Superstar".
The
actor
said
his
aim
is
to
support
good
scripts
and
making
money
is
not
his
agenda.
"I
had
not
thought
at
what
pace
I
will
make
films.
Usually,
people
make
films
with
their
production
houses
for
business.
That
is
not
our
first
agenda.
Creativity
is
our
agenda.
Till
the
time
we
don't
get
a
good
script,
we
don't
make
it
into
a
film."
When
asked
if
as
an
actor
does
he
have
any
Hollywood
aspirations,
Aamir
said
he
would
work
in
any
part
of
the
world
if
he
gets
a
good
opportunity.
"For
me,
as
an
actor,
what
is
important
is
what
the
film
is
all
about
and
what
it
is
trying
to
say.
It
should
excite
me
as
an
actor.
It
is
not
important
that
it
should
have
a
social
message.
"It
does
not
matter
which
part
of
the
world
it
originates
from.
If
someone
from
Japan
or
Africa
offers
me
something
and
if
I
get
excited,
I
will
do
it.
But
I
don't
have
a
fascination
for
Hollywood,"
Aamir
added.
The
actor
has
announced
his
next
project,
"Lal
Singh
Chaddha",
an
official
adaptation
of
Tom
Hanks'
1994
film
"Forrest
Gump".
He
was
also
in
talks
for
Netflix
series
on
spiritual
leader
Rajneesh,
popularly
known
among
his
followers
as
Osho,
but
he
said
the
script
has
not
been
finalised
yet.
"Nothing
is
happening
on
Osho
at
the
moment.
I
am
not
aware.
The
script
is
not
ready,"
he
said.
