Aamir has now become more open to media following a difficult relationship in the past.
"I think I went into a shell during 2006-07. I had nothing against media but I did not want to deal with it. I found them extremely intrusive. I found them to be very attacking. "It was a phase when TV channels were mushrooming and I think there was a struggle for readership space... it had
become vicious medium. I did not know how to react to it. I was being lashed from every side but things changed while working on 'Taare Zameen Par'," he added.
