Brother, I am Aamir Khan, watch my film - 34 years ago, rickshaws and autowalas used to beg like this

Those who think that Aamir Khan, being a film background, got a break in films easily and he did not have to do any struggle, then it is not so. Even though Aamir started his career as a child artist with Uncle Nasir Hussain’s film ‘Yaadon Ki Baaraat’, but when it came to his debut as a hero, he had to make a lot of papads. Aamir Khan would scour the streets to let people know about his film. He would beg everyone from rickshaw to auto people to get a sticker of his film on his car. Must go see his film.

In Filmy Friday, we are going to tell you the story of the same film of Aamir Khan. This film was ‘Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak’, which was released in 1988. Aamir Khan made his Bollywood debut as a lead hero with this film. The film was a blockbuster, everyone knows. But to what extent Aamir Khan went for its promotion, hardly anyone knows. Today everyone knows Aamir Khan by name. Just imagine that no one knew his name at that time.

‘Who is Aamir Khan? Ask the girl next door
Whoever Aamir Khan would have gone to and said that he would watch his film, everyone would have said that who is Aamir Khan? We don’t know. With this, the makers of the film and Aamir Khan came up with a unique ad campaign. Under this, some posters of the film were made, in which neither the picture of hero Aamir Khan nor heroine Juhi Chawla was made. Only one thing was written – who is Aamir Khan? Ask the girl next door.

Aamir had further said about this, ‘We used to stop taxis and auto people on the road. He used to tell them that brother, you should paste this. This movie is coming. Some people used to stick it, but some people used to say that no, no, we do not have to paste. Used to say which film is it, who is the hero. So we used to say that Aamir Khan is there. After hearing those people ask them and see people.’
