Which movie of Aamir Khan do you think Junaid should remake?

[@fatmaahmed3831]

Well ,Junaid didn't seem to be excited about it lol ,,Obviously he wants to stay away from his dad's fame and not to piggyback on it!! ,of course its his full right ,and u gotta respect him for that ! . But let's play along with this suggestion, for me It's either Talaash or Gajini but with a different ending probably!..for instance in the later ,we need Kalpana to stay alive or at least she knows Sachin's true identity! ..You have no idea how that film and its anticlimax disappointed us .
P.S : The interviewer is amazing ,she had it all ! promote her soon! lol ..just wow!
Plus : Please next time include every guest in the head title! It's not only Junaid's film ,the young man doesn't like it!! ..u can tell he wants to be treated as Junaid Khan not as Aamir Khan's son! . Finally ,,Thanx for this beautiful interview ,amazing guests and amazing host ..enjoyed it till the very end! .

Not into Bollywood but I was recommended by a friend to watch Maharaj. I'm blown away by how comfortably Junaid played the character. Can't believe he's the son of one of the actors of the '3 idiots' phenomenon. He's earned a fan in me. All the best to the young man.

[@shantagees9425]

Junaid came out of nowhere and he seems so grounded and real, I think he could play a lot of amazing characters, I wonder why he waited this long. I don't know if its just me but he seems to have a lot of potentials and sex appeal to be a major star. The future looks bright.

[@sreejachowdhury1283]

I agree 👍

[@tiatemjentzudir4998]

It was honestly a very good movie , people should watch. Whereas Junaid played like he's been acting for quite a while.... He seem honest, well mannered, gentleman
wishing him all the best wishes ... also the interviewer for being so smart, supportive in making Junaid comfortable to present himself decent enough for the viewers ❤

[@kavitasingh1459]

He speaks and sounds exactly like his father.❤

[@aliveyet4440]

Just finished Maharaj 15 minutes ago. Commendable, truly, as a debut actor. And the dialogues were written with so much soul and clarity, kudos to the writers of Karsan's dialogues. 🤍

[@zinat3096]

Junaid is a gem❤

[@jayantasen390]

I like Maharaj immensely. Junaid's hindi diction is excellent..he needs to work on expression.

[@orangeclover21]

Great interviewer!

[@zinat3096]

Junaid ❤❤❤

[@jackafron1125]

Junaid has some different aura and swag.
I was shocked after recognised him that he is amirs son but i can say after watching his acting he dnt need Amirs name.
What a talent!

[@manujshenoi2558]

Junaid Khan is the Indian version of Henry Cavill ❤❤❤❤❤

[@_aqeel_b2193]

I think he'll be great in art house movies

[@vanitapant970]

Very good movie

[@TheLegendSpeaks]

Stop remaking movies.

[@arshisquad]
