Aamir Khan’s son Junaid Khan is all ready to make his acting debut

Following his superstar father’s foot steps, there’s one star kid who is all set to make his acting debut and it’s none other than Bollywood’s Mr Perfectionist, actor Aamir Khan’s eldest son Junaid Khan. But, hold on! There’s a slight twist for the ones who are thinking that Junaid will feature in a big-budget film. Rather, he will begin his acting career from theatre.

Junaid Khan will be first performing on director Quasar Thakore Padamsee’s play titled ‘Mother Courage and Her Children’ that will be showcased on August 19 and 20 and also on September 9 and 10. The play is an adaptation of Bertolt Brecht’s play with the same title. (Also Read: Aamir Khan urges people to help flood victims in Gujarat and Assam)

Quasar, Junaid’s play director, has revealed that how he had not used any influence when he approached him for the play. He said, “It was an open casting call and someone had given him my number. When he came, I thought he was just another kid from HR College. He said he had been to drama school and seemed to understand the play and had lovely ideas.” [sic]

“He is a very giving actor, so his co-actors gain a lot from him. He cares a lot about the whole production and not just his own part and is constantly contributing and working on all aspects. You want people to come in excited and rehearse for 8 to 10 hours. And Junaid was happy to come in early or stay late, even if it was not for his own part,” added the director. [sic]

Well, after listening to this, certainly we can say that Junaid has inherited the best quality of his father and that is of perfection.

Not many would be aware that Junaid Khan has earlier assisted filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani on his film ‘PK’ (2014) which starred his father and superstar Aamir Khan playing the title role.
