Aamir Khan on Doing One Film a Year

At the summit, the host passed along a fan question to Aamir Khan, asking why he chooses to do only one film a year and whether he plans to continue with that approach. Responding to this, Aamir shared, "My intention is to do one film a year, My emotion is also to do one film a year but that doesnt happen. I dont know what to do."

He added, "It depends on what films you do. I did say I'll try and do one film a year. If I like something, I can't do a film if I don't like it."
