Junaid Khan reveals how Aamir Khan spent ‘ridonculous’ amount of money for his acting classes; insists that his father learnt more during the process

en Bollywood News Junaid Khan reveals how Aamir Khan spent ‘ridonculous’ amount of money for his acting classes; insists that his father learnt more during the process

The Maharaj actor opened up about how his privileged background and financial stability of his parents helped him in acting.

Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor, who recently made their theatrical debut with the romantic comedy Loveyapa, opened up about belonging to a film family as they opened up about their early brush with acting. It is a known fact that Khan is a trained theatre artist and has been a part of the industry for many years. The actor, however, confessed that he underwent extensive acting and theatre courses, for which his parents spent an exorbitant amount and appreciated his luck for having parents with such strong financial backing.

Comparing how his father decided to learn more on the job rather than investing in acting classes and appreciating his parents’ efforts for sending him to these classes, Junaid Khan told The Indian Express, “I had the privilege of being able to go to theatre school, and spend a 'ridonculous' amount of my parents' money on a theatre education. That's a huge privilege, especially for a career that has no financial upside on the horizon”. Khan went on to continue about how his father learnt these skills and added, “Dad did spend a lot of time at FTII doing diploma films. So, he didn't go to acting school per se. But yeah, he learnt largely on the job.”

Junaid opened up about actors taking different approaches and shared, “I think different actors also approach things differently. As we work, as we learn, we develop tools that come to our aid when we need them. But I think a lot of it is again, just language. If you talk to dad about it, he will have done something but we just call it different things."

On the film front, Junaid Khan made his debut with the YRF film Maharaj co-starring Jaideep Ahlawat, Shalini Pandey, and Sharvari in key roles. The film, based on true events, released on Netflix last year.
