Actors Ajay Devgn and Aamir Khan recently recalled the time when the latter was attacked by a chimpanzee on the sets of Ishq. The duo have expressed their desire to collaborate again, potentially for a follow-up to the 1997 romantic comedy.
The two actors on Saturday evening attend the mahurat launch of the upcoming movie Tera Yaar Hoon Main, which marks the acting debut of filmmaker Indra Kumar's son Aman.
“I feel very happy whenever I meet Ajay. We don't meet that often but whenever we do meet it's with a lot of warmth and love, I like the guy he is,” Aamir said.
Ajay said he had a great time working with the Dangal actor on Ishq, which was directed by Indra Kumar, and also featured Kajol and Juhi Chawla as the female leads.
"We had so much fun on the sets of Ishq, we should do another one,” said Ajay, who is basking in the glory of his latest release, Singham Again.
To this, Aamir added, “Yes, we should.”
Aamir also recounted how Ajay saved him when a chimpanzee attacked him during the filming of Ishq. “A chimpanzee attacked me once during a sequence in the film. He saved me and pulled me out,” the 59-year-old actor said.
Ajay added, "But it happened all because of Aamir. He was spraying water on the chimpanzee and then ran around, shouting 'bachao bachao' (save me, save me) like a girl." The two superstars gave their best wishes to Aman for Tera Yaar Hoon Main, which is being directed by Milap Milan Zaveri.
Indra Kumar's sister, veteran actor Aruna Irani as well as celebrities like actors Javed Jaffery, Aftab Shivdasani, and filmmakers Boney Kapoor, Rajkumar Santoshi, and Anees Bazmee, were also present at the event.
Aman said he is grateful to everyone who came for the mahurat of his first movie.
“I never thought my career would be launched by two of my greatest idols, my superheroes and superstars of this country, Ajay sir and Aamir sir. This is the biggest honour a newcomer has ever received, and I'm so grateful for it,” the actor said.
Many actors including Anil Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Bobby Deol, Genelia D'Souza, and Riteish Deshmukh, extended their best wishes to Aman through audio-visual messages.
Tera Yaar Hoon Main also stars Paresh Rawal and Akanksha Sharma.
