As leading actor Aamir Khan clocked in his 54th birthday on Thursday, Bollywood was only too happy to post their sweet messages for the man they call ‘Mr Perfectionist’.
From Madhuri Dixit Nene, who jokingly accused him of playing a prank on her while shooting for Dil, to his Rang De Basanti director Rakeysh Om Prakash Mehra to Thugs of Hindostan co-star Katrina Kaif - all took to social media to wish the actor, who announced on Thursday that he would be starring in the Hindi adaptation of Tom Hanks’ iconic Forrest Gump. The Hindi adaptation will be called Lal Singh Chadha.
Khan invited the media to his house while he celebrated his birthday with wife, filmmaker Kiran Rao and the rest of his family.
