Aamir Is my Guru: Surya

Ghajini is a remake of a Tamil film with the same name. Aamir’s role in the Tamil Ghajini was played by actor Surya and Surya is mighty impressed after seeing the Hindi Ghajini. He thinks that the Hindi version is way better than the Tamil one.

This is what he had to say:

“Every remake — or even a retake — is tough. It will never be the same again if a remake is made. It also offers the chance to better the original. That is why I always believed Ghajini’s Hindi adaptation would be better than the Tamil version.

My hindsight was proved right when I finally watched the Aamir Khan-starrer Ghajini in Chennai. Needless to say, it is much better than the Tamil version. Comparisons are inevitable, especially when it was remade by Murugadoss himself.

Finally, about Aamir Khan. In a nutshell, I would say he did a fantastic job. Having said that, I don’t even try a comparison with him. He is like a professor to me, and I am just a mere student. A student can never compare himself with his guru. The last two years or so has been a learning experience for me. When he said he never made a remake film in his career and he would do my role in Ghajini, I was humbled. As I said before on rediff.com, I am an Aamir Khan fan. I have been inspired by his Dil Chahta Hai “

Indeed!
