Being an unusual technique during those periods and not knowing the actor, the natives took Aamir for granted. But the flick did wonders and made the artist claim his first National Film Award. Surely those who received the posters from the star must be considering themselves lucky, as this star glittered like anything thereafter.
Almost every movie of Aamir Khan since thereafter went decent at the Box Office and his name accompanied the list of the best actors nominated for the Filmfare Award. It happened not once but for six consecutive years until the legend finally grabbed one for “Raja Hindustan” in 1996.
