Turkish fan following surprises Indian star Aamir Khan
Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan has said he is surprised to learn about his huge fan following in Turkey and expressed his interest in learning more about Turkish cinema.
Khan arrived in Istanbul earlier on a special invitation of Turkey during which he will also promote his latest film Secret Superstar that will be released worldwide on Oct. 20.
Speaking at a news conference, the critically-acclaimed actor, whose films often break box office records in India and around the world, said he had been “constantly getting messages from Turkey” to visit the country.
“I didn’t know that in Turkey young people were watching my films. They kept inviting me and since then I would like to come here.”
He said his wife and son had visited Turkey a year back and “they had the most amazing time of their life and since then [my wife] Kiran has been telling me that we should come back.”
He also expressed an interest in Turkish cinema.
“I am really keen to experience Turkish cinema and I am very keen to watch works of artists from Turkey,” the 52-year-old told reporters.
“I am going to start doing that and up until now I have not really watched films from Turkey.”
