         Aamir Khan is recuperating but continues to shoot for his forthcoming 
film Ghajjini . According to Aamir he can’t afford to take off as apart from 
Ghajjini, the third film of his Aamir Khan Productions Jane Tu Ya Jane Na is 
all set to release soon. Being a producer of this film Aamir’s attention is on 
the promotions of his next which also marks his nephew, Imraan Khan’s debut. 

But there’s something more special than this. Aamir informs that he managed to 
lure his cousin Mansoor Khan out of his hiding place. He says “I took over as 
director of TZP but I needed a hands-on producer on JT so I requested Mansoor. 
To his credit despite his reluctance he did not hesitate to step in.” 

He gives credit to Nasir Hussain. He says, “I would like to think it was 
because of me but I suspect it was because of Nasir Sahab. Both Mansoor and I 
know that Nasir Sahab would have wanted the two of us to stand by Imraan at 
this important juncture in his career. So Mansoor makes a return, albeit as 
producer.” 

Now when the film is complete Aamir is all set to promote it. He is all excited 
to launch his nephew. “I am readying my self for my next release. Jaane Tu 
...When I say ‘my’ I mean Aamir Khan Productions’. After Lagaan and Taare 
Zameen Par this will be our third release and I am keen to complete a 
hat-trick.” 

He informs that he has completed the test screenings by the end of March. 
Rahman has finished the background score. The first promo is on air. It will be 
up on the website as well on the official film website. 

Apart from being its producer. what makes this film special to him? He reasons 
“This will be the first film of my nephew Imraan. Jaane Tu... is the debut not 
only of Imraan but also of Abbas Tyrewala who has written and directed the 
film. Abbas who is an established writer having written films like Munna Bhai 
MBBS, Maqbool , and Main Hoon Na among others has done a great job as a 
director.” 

Aamir has seen the film and has loved Mansoor’s work too. He says, “I saw the 
completed film, it was an excellent translation onto screen of the script, 
which for me is the most important yardstick for any filmmaker.” He signs off.
