Aamir Khan to turn Distributor for 'Secret Superstar'

Aamir Khan's pierced look for 'Thugs of Hindostan'

Aamir Khan is known for living upto his title 'Mr. Perfectionist' as he has the ability to dissolve himself into every character that he portrays on screen. From speaking in Awadhi language for 'Lagaan', to gaining and losing 30 kgs of fat in a year for 'Dangal', he has done it all what films have dmanded of him.

Two in his upper ear and one on his nose to fit in a very antique looking nose ring. This is quite understandable as the film 'Thugs of Hindostan' is based on the story of early eighteenth century, and come on, who used to care for the fashion sense then anyways? However, one must laud AK for making this painful transformation as it's a well known fact how painful nose piercings can be. Also he got two major piercing in the cartilage bone of his e...
