During a recent episode of “The Great Indian Kapil Show,” host Kapil Sharma revealed that superstar Aamir Khan politely declined an invitation to appear on his show, citing a previous, extensive interview.
Kapil Shares Aamir’s Polite Refusal
The latest episode of Netflix’s “The Great Indian Kapil Show” featured popular YouTube personalities and journalists, including Saurabh Dwivedi of The Lallantop. While speaking with Dwivedi, Kapil Sharma shared an interesting anecdote about his attempt to invite Aamir Khan onto the show.
Aamir was promoting his film “Sitaare Zameen Par” when Kapil reached out. However, the actor had a rather unique and humorous reason for turning down the offer, which Kapil found amusing.
The Marathon Interview that “Wrang Him Dry”
Kapil highlighted Saurabh Dwivedi’s five-and-a-half-hour-long interview with Aamir Khan. Joking with the journalist, Kapil quipped, “You did an episode with Aamir Khan that was five and a half hours long. I am yet to watch it. I’ll watch it during my summer vacations.”
He continued with a humorous take, suggesting Saurabh didn’t just interview Aamir, but “wrung him dry.” Kapil even joked, “Didn’t you feel like only his kurta and slippers were left, and you should take those too?” This lighthearted banter set the stage for Aamir’s subsequent response to Kapil’s invitation.
Aamir’s Candid Reason for Declining
When Kapil Sharma extended the invitation to Aamir Khan for “Sitaare Zameen Par” promotions, the actor’s response was quite candid and witty. Aamir reportedly told Kapil, “No, I’ve given everything to him (Saurabh); you can get it from him from now on.”
This clever reply implied that Aamir had exhausted all his talking points and insights during the extensive interview with Dwivedi, leaving nothing significant left for Kapil’s show. It was a polite yet firm way of declining.
The Power of Listening, According to Saurabh Dwivedi
In response to Kapil’s comments, Saurabh Dwivedi shared his perspective on Aamir Khan. He described Aamir as an “interesting personality” who always has a lot to share, especially given his experiences.
Dwivedi believes this holds true for anyone who has struggled and worked across various fields. He added a profound observation, citing his wife: “If only you care to listen, everybody has a story to share.” This insight underscored the depth of his interviewing style, which Kapil also noted, mentioning how Saurabh always maintains eye contact until he gets his answer.
What’s Next on Kapil’s Show?
While Aamir Khan won’t be gracing the stage this season, “The Great Indian Kapil Show” continues to host a variety of prominent guests. The upcoming episode is set to feature politician Raghav Chadha alongside his wife, actor Parineeti Chopra.
