Addressing a question about his ability to experiment with roles, Aamir Khan shared an interesting financial strategy that he has followed for over two decades. He explained, “Mai paise nahi leta hoon. As an actor, jo meri fees hai, woh mai film pe laod hi nahi karta hoon. Ye Kaafi saalon se kar raha hai hu ye mai. Toh Kya hai, film ki jo making hai, jo cost hai, woh 10-15 crore mein ban jaati hai, utni toh meri film kaamaayi leti hai. Toh aapko rosk nahi hota. Toh mai kya karta hu, apni fees nahi leta hu. 20-21 saal hogayae, mai fees leta nahi hu film karne ki. Agar film chalti hai, toh usse mai kamata hu, toh agar aapko film pasand nahi aayi, toh mai kamata nahi hu, agar aapko film pasand aayi aur aap dekte hai, toh mai kamata hoon. (I don’t charge fee. As an actor, I don’t load my fee onto a film’s budget. I’ve been doing this for many years. The production cost of my films is usually around INR 10-15 crore, which the movie easily recovers. So, I don’t take a fixed fee. It’s been 20-21 years since I’ve charged for a film. If the movie performs well, I earn from it; if audiences don’t like it, I don’t make money. But if they love it and watch it, then I benefit.” Aamir Khan’s Jaw-Dropping Caveman Transformation Video Takes the Internet by Storm – WATCH.
