Bollywood Superstar Aamir Khan’s revelation about his past is like peeling back the layers of a carefully constructed persona. Just like a building with an immaculate exterior, hidden beneath the surface can often lie a complex, turbulent history. The Bollywood superstar, who is currently doing a cameo in Rajinikanth’s Coolie, has shocked both Tollywood and Bollywood with a deeply personal confession.
Aamir opened up about a dark chapter in his life when he was addicted to alcohol and smoking. Despite his clean image and the "Mr. Perfect" branding, the actor struggled with his own demons. He admitted, “I was an alcoholic and there were times when I used to drink all night long. On top of that, I used to smoke pipe, with no regard to my personal health and wellbeing. I knew very well that these habits were detrimental to my life and career, but I could not end them." However, as his love for cinema grew, it became his guiding light, ultimately leading him to break free from these destructive habits.
Apart from his acting career, Aamir is also involved in producing several movies, continuing to make an impact both in front of and behind the camera.
With this candid admission, Aamir's story seems to be one of redemption, and it wouldn't be surprising if it inspires many to turn their own lives around, just as his love for cinema did.
