Bollywood star Aamir Khan, who met several Bollywood celebrities during his recent trip to London, chose not to meet Shah Rukh Khan, says a media report.
Known as a recluse for years, Aamir Khan is now in the mood for socializing. He has started by making the best use of his one year break from acting by making an effort to interact with his friends and associates from the industry during a recent trip to London.
Aamir and his wife Kiran Rao were in London last week to finalise some marketing deals for his forthcoming film Peepli Live.
During his five-day stay, Aamir met Anil Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan-Jaya Bachchan, Parmeshwar Godrej, Ronnie Screwvala and Akshay Kumar who were also in London. Interestingly, Aamir didn't meet Shah Rukh Khan who too was in London at the same time.
The report says, "Aamir was in London on Tuesday. They left on Saturday night. During his stay, Aamir met as many friends as he could. He has never done this before. You could say that he has no time to socialise or that he simply does not socialise. He has never met so many people, that too within a week. However, this trip was different."
The report says, on the first night, Aamir met Anil for dinner. The next day he met Parmeshwar Godrej for lunch and the following day he went to an Italian restaurant for dinner with Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan. It was Amitabh Bachchan who wanted to take the couple out for dinner.
Aamir also met Ronnie Screwvala with whom he has worked on many films. On Saturday night, Aamir boarded the same flight as Akshay who too was on his way to Mumbai.
Akshay and Aamir spoke about Bollywood, and also bonded over their kids and their education and discussed why they decided to star in certain films, says the report.
The report says, considering that he met so many of his friends from the film industry, Aamir was definitely aware that SRK was also in London. But he didn't meet SRK for reasons best known to him. He was probably too busy finalising the deals for Peepli L i v e .
Aamir's spokesperson confirms the news and says, "Yes, Aamir did meet all of them in London."
