Aamir Khan’s son Junaid Khan recently debuted in the Netflix film Maharaj. In an interview with Puja Talwar, Junaid talked to Puja Talwar about Aamir’s reaction to the film and his feelings about carrying on his father’s legacy. When asked how Aamir felt about Maharaj, Junaid explained that Aamir generally enjoys most films he watches as an audience, including Maharaj. The only films he might not enjoy are his own, where he’s more critical.

Talking about how Aamir reacted to the film, Junaid said, “No, I think he liked the film. But that is also…he likes everything. As an audience and when he watches something he wants to enjoy it, so he ends up liking it. Barring his own films where he’s not an audience.”

Junaid was asked if he’s like his father in being a perfectionist and if he feels pressure from carrying on the family legacy. “I don’t think so. Everybody has to do their own thing. Life pans out differently for everybody. I’m on this journey, enjoying myself,” said Junaid.

Junaid debuted with Maharaj, a film based on the Maharaj libel case exposing sexual exploitation in spiritual groups. Speaking to PTI, Junaid said, “I don’t know about it being an unconventional (debut) because YRF is a big banner and Sid sir (director Siddharth Malhotra) wanted me (in the film). The story is inherently very dramatic.”

Junaid further added, “I have been doing theatre in Mumbai since 2017. Sid sir asked me to come and test for this film. I didn’t think of it as conventional or unconventional. I guess producers and directors didn’t see me in romantic dramas. You do the work you get but it was a lovely script. It is such a wide medium, I don’t think there is any protection in films.”
