Aamir Khan has a real treat in store for his fans with his upcoming film 'Thugs of Hindostan'. The actor will be seen in a really quirky avatar in the film as Firangi. Now, the makers of the film have released a new video that explores what went behind the making of this eccentric character. In the video, Aamir made a very stunning revelation. He disclosed that never before in his career has he ever said yes to a film because of a character he liked. This goes to show how much passion and effort he has exerted behind his character in the film. This is what he exactly said, "In my career, I can't think of any other instance where I've actually said yes to a film because of the character because the character of Firangi was so attractive to me. It was something I was really dying to do when I heard the script."

Other than Aamir gushing about his character, his co-star Amitabh Bachchan was also in awe of the unpredictable Firangi. The Megastar revealed that he feels that Aamir has done a tremendous job and he keeps telling Mr. Perfectionist that this is the finest performance of his career. Indeed, with such high praises from Big B himself, one can truly expect something phenomenal. Fatima Sana Shaikh also had an opinion on Aamir's character. Speaking about the same, she said that Firangi is very, selfish, mean and untrustworthy and that if she ever meets someone like him in real life, then she will stay at least ten feet away.
