Imran follows the footsteps of uncle Aamir

Actor Imran Khan is following in the
footsteps of his uncle Aamir Khan and
pasting posters of his new film Matru
Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola on taxis.
Imran recounts the similarity between
his way and what Aamir once did.
"Twenty four years ago Aamir uncle
pasted the posters of his film Qayamat
Se Qayamat Tak. I remember him
telling the story that he and my
mother were roaming around the by-
lanes of Bandra and seeking the
permission of rickshaw drivers to
paste the posters of his film and telling
them that he is the hero of the film,"
the 29-year-old said here Monday
while promoting the film.
"Flash forward 24 years and I find
myself doing the same thing. Actually
in our city public transport is the most
important thing whether it is rickshaw,
taxis or buses, it has always been the
lifeline of the city. I think it is the
easiest way to communicate and reach
out to the people," he added.
Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, Matru Ki
Bijlee Ka Mandola also features
Anushka Sharma, Pankaj Kapur and
Shabana Azmi. It hits theatres Jan 11.
