Inspiring Lives-47: Aamir Khan

I did not know much about Aamir Khan except that he is a Hindi Film actor, director and producer. There was a mail from Digg in my mailbox about 150,000 farmers death in India. That led me to a video in YouTube, which made me realize that he is much more than that; a warm-hearted, sweet person, who follows his in whatever he does and his concern for fellow human beings. The first video led me to video after video about him. It was all highly impressive.

I have seen one or two movies of his (Rangde Basanti and 3 Idiots) and have seen his song numbers in TV. And of course, Tare Zamin Par directed by him;  he also plays an understanding and sympathetic teacher.  What a movie!  The 45-year old actor still looks like a charming college student. In the videos, I observed his clarity of thought and thoughts expressed in neat language.

Then I went to Wikipedia and read his biography.He has been associated with some critically acclaimed and commercially successful movies as an actor, director and producer and a lot more. Quite an admirable personality and an inspiring guy.  I am providing below links for those who want to know more about him.  Further, I also viewed the six-part videos of Aamir Khan and Hillary Clinton from the program organised by Teach India.  Very very inspiring and interesting videos!
