  • Imran Khan Returns: Aamir Khan & Vir Das’s Fun Film Promotion

    Get ready for a dose of humor and a significant acting return! Aamir Khan recently joined Vir Das to promote the latter’s upcoming film, ‘Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos’. In a highly entertaining promotional video, Aamir playfully ‘beat’ Vir Das with words, playfully challenging the film’s action, romance, and even its lack of a typical item number. The film also signifies the return of actor Imran Khan to the big screen after a hiatus.

    The viral clip shows Aamir Khan quizzing Vir Das about the genre of ‘Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos’.

The conversation then turns to romance, with Aamir sarcastically remarking on a love scene where Vir’s character seemingly gets slapped.
