Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan has been featured in an advertisement of a political party for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections and the 'Rang De Basanti' actor has called out the ad fake. His team issued a statement on his behalf saying that "Aamir Khan has never endorsed any political party throughout his 35-year career."
The statement was issued following a video being circulated online which featured Aamir Khan in it.
“We want to clarify that Mr Aamir Khan has never endorsed any political party throughout his 35-year career. He has dedicated his efforts to raising public awareness through Election Commission public awareness campaigns for many past elections. We are alarmed by the recent viral video alleging that Aamir Khan is promoting a particular political party. He would like to clarify that this is a fake video and totally untrue. He has reported the matter to various authorities related to this issue, including filing an FIR with the Cyber Crime Cell of the Mumbai Police. Mr Khan would like to urge all Indians to come out and vote and be an active part of our electoral process," the statement read.
Talking about Aamir Khan, he is currently busy shooting for 'Sitaare Zameen Par.' He is working with RS Prasanna for this social comedy drama.
During a live Instagram session on his ex-wife Kiran Rao's page last month, Aamir Khan had said: "The same amount that 'Taare Zameen Par' has made you cry, 'Sitaare Zameen Par' will make you laugh." Taare Zameen Par discussed the topic of Dyslexia and 'Sitaare..' focuses on Down Syndrome.
He also clarified then that they want to release the movie this Christmas this year. Aamir Khan has already started work on the movie 'Sitaare Zameen Par.' Genelia D'Souza will also be seen playing a pivotal role in the upcoming movie.mo
