While he considers it one of his best performances, Aamir admitted to making a mistake in the film, which was pointed out by veteran megastar Amitabh Bachchan.

The Scene That Broke the Character

Aamir recalled that in an early scene of ‘Dangal’, his character, a young Mahavir Singh Phogat, is seen saying “Yes” while celebrating a match victory.

Later, Amitabh Bachchan pointed out that this gesture was out of character for Mahavir, as he hails from a rural background and would never say “Yes” in English.

Aamir shared that he regrets this mistake, but it was too late to edit it out, as it would have affected the film’s continuity.

This revelation comes three years after his divorce from Kiran Rao, the director of ‘Laapataa Ladies’. The two had separated in 2021 after 16 years of marriage.

Interestingly, Aamir met Kiran Rao on the sets of ‘Lagaan’, where she worked as an assistant director, while his first wife, Reena Dutta, served as the executive producer.
