“His focus, dedication and sincerity towards his craft, his approach towards filmmaking, performance and character, I think that has only become greater and bigger with time. And today I work with him after 17 years, he is still a much bigger star,” she said. “When I was a newcomer he was a huge star.
Now that Rani would be again seen opposite Aamir in Reema Kagti’s upcoming suspense drama ‘Talaash’, she feels Aamir has become a more bigger star today. I think I will be attending his 80th birthday,” she said. “Over the years, Aamir and I have built a friendship which, I would like to believe, is for life. Rani insists that now she has become good friends with the ‘perfectionist’. I was very nervous while doing romantic scenes with him,” the actress said. When I did ‘Ghulam’ with him I used to look at his shoes as I used to be tensed and nervous. I had a crush on him when I saw ‘Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak’. Rani first teamed up with Aamir in 1998 for Vikram Bhatt’s ‘Ghulam’. Rani is all praises for the way Aamir promotes his films and says she would any day go to watch them. The kind of films he chooses to do have made an impact in peoples’ lives,” she added. That is because of his single-minded focus for his work and his dedication. “If people watch Aamir Khan film it is because he has created an image for himself.

Because I know what they are suggesting is for my own good,” she added. “When they suggest anything its important for me to take it.
