Aamir Khan Left Spellbound by Sunil Grover's Uncanny Imitation
In a delightful turn of events, Bollywood icon Aamir Khan found himself thoroughly impressed and amused by comedian Sunil Grover's remarkable ability to mimic him with astonishing accuracy. The interaction unfolded during the making of a promotional video for the upcoming film Happy Patel: Khatarnaak Jasoos, where Grover's performance left Khan both stunned and entertained.
The Hilarious Behind-the-Scenes Revelation
The nearly four-minute behind-the-scenes clip, recently released by the makers, captures Aamir Khan's genuine reaction to Sunil Grover's transformation. It begins with a script-reading session where both are seen rehearsing their lines. The real magic happens when Grover arrives on set dressed exactly like Khan, complete with matching attire and styling.
Aamir, visibly taken aback, exclaimed, "Superb look yaar. Iski daadi waadi sab aagayi hai, very good, ek dum similar lag raha hai." His admiration was so profound that he even turned to his makeup team for advice, asking if he should curl his hair like Grover's. To this, Sunil jokingly retorted, "So you have to copy me now," sparking laughter all around.
Aamir's Observations and Praise
As Aamir watched Sunil perform, he noticed the comedian mirroring his mannerisms with pinpoint precision. He was particularly amazed by how Grover casually placed his leg on a chair while sitting, a habit Khan himself is known for. "Very good yaar, ye jo paun upar rakha hai, too good," he remarked enthusiastically.
The climax of the clip saw Aamir completely losing control of his laughter when Sunil wiped his tears in the same distinctive way Khan often does. He even requested Grover to place a hand on his heart while greeting people, mimicking one of the superstar's most familiar gestures. Reflecting on the experience, Aamir praised, "He imitates me from real life, not from films," highlighting the authenticity of Grover's portrayal.
Sunil Grover's Rising Viral Fame
This promotional video is not the first time Sunil Grover's mimicry of Aamir Khan has captured public attention. His recent performance on The Great Indian Kapil Show, featuring guests Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday, also went viral, leaving the stars in splits. In a subsequent interview with Bollywood Hungama, Aamir elaborated on his admiration, stating, "I wouldn't even call it mimicry. It was so authentic, I felt like I was watching myself."
He further added, "What I saw was priceless. I was laughing so much I couldn't breathe! There was no malice in it at all. I must have laughed the loudest." This mutual appreciation between the two talents underscores the joy and creativity thriving in Bollywood's entertainment sphere.
The incident, set in Mumbai, showcases how imitation can become a form of flattery, bringing laughter and lighthearted moments to both celebrities and audiences alike. As Sunil Grover continues to charm with his comedic genius, Aamir Khan's gracious response adds a heartwarming touch to this entertaining saga.
