Amir's secret to success
A little about him: this actor was lucky enough to be born into a famous film family. But it is obvious that such luck is not always enough to guarantee success in life. He started his film career with wild success in a film called "The Verdict", which was directed by Aamir's uncle, Mansoor Khan.
Amir has come a long way since then. Even after 15 years in the film industry, he manages to keep his acting fresh. Behind the hits are “Heart”, “You Can’t Command Your Heart”, “Rivals”, “Veselchak”, “Raja Hindustani”, “Different Fates”, “Malice” and the non-trivial, critically acclaimed “Raakh”, “Earth 1947”.
His latest works are “Stars on Earth”, “Ghajini”, “Three Idiots”. These films increased Aamir’s popularity and allowed him to become one of the most talented artists not only in India but also in other countries. In the ranking of world artists, Aamir Khan ranks 16th place.

Now Aamir is at the pinnacle of success. “Lagaan”, “Mangal Pandey”, “Rang de basanti”, “Fanaa” - these works have earned recognition not only in the homeland of the talented actor, but throughout the world (Lagaan was even nominated for an Oscar as best foreign film). what is the secret of his success?
Aamir is a unique actor. He can play any role: a romantic student Raj, a musician, a reckless driver, an artist, a lively journalist Raghu, a village simpleton with million-dollar ambitions, an honest factory owner, an incredibly handsome parsel mouth Shiva, a photographer Ajay, a fearless police inspector Amar and even... a gangster. All these and many of Amir's other roles are brilliant. In each of them, he is convincing and unique. Aamir amazingly combines his beautiful appearance, incredible acting talent, inexhaustible optimism and sense of humor, masterful use of facial expressions and gestures (for example, a scene from the film “You Can’t Command Your Heart”: reporter Raghu shows the runaway daughter of a millionaire Pooja various techniques for voting on the road - makes you laugh until you get colic).
And, of course, you cannot deny Aamir his main talent: playing a man sick with love. He does this with incredible strength and persuasiveness. Every gesture, look, movement, touch, word - everything is full of love and adoration. There are many talented hero-lovers in Bollywood, but there is none like Aamir on screen, from my point of view.

Anyone who has seen the film “Blind Love” or “Rebel Soul” or any film where Aamir plays will forever remember him. This short, always smiling artist has some kind of special magnetism. His warm honey-colored eyes look straight into your soul, they are mesmerizing. This is very talentedly shown in the film “Blind Love”. The blind girl felt his charm, special charisma, warmth and kindness.
Many fans consider this role of Aamir to be his best.

Years later, we see Aamir noticeably aged. In March he will turn 46 years old. But look carefully at the photo of him today. A stunning man. Always wears sports-style clothes. Always friendly, calm. And a talent...
