Aamir Khan is known for being an actor completely involved in his film and insisting on certain changes, much to the chagrin of his directors. Aamir and Rajkumar Hirani have already had a clash on the promos of the film. The film is ready and Sharman’s role looks meatier than Aamir’s. He has given an impressive performance that has overshadowed Aamir’s act. Now Aamir wants the film to be edited in such a way that both their roles appear balanced and both actors have equal screen-time. When the film was written, it didn’t seem that Sharman’s role would turn out to be so important. Director Rajkumar Hirani doesn’t want to displease anyone and it hasn’t been decided how the film will be edited.
A source close to the film tells us, “It is unlikely that Aamir wants the film to be edited in such a way that Sharman’s role seems smaller. Aamir is a very secure actor and isn’t somebody who cares about the length of his role. 3 Idiots is clearly Aamir’s film and he is stupendous, along with the rest of the cast. For example, Kareena looks stunning and has acted well but you know that
3 Idiots is Aamir’s film. These stories are being circulated just to generate hype around the film. Aamir is a marketing genius after all. He didn’t have any problem letting Darsheel Safary bask in the glory of
Taare Zameen Par and like
DCH and
RDB,
3 Idiots is a multi-starrer film where each actor and character has been given his or her due. So this is just a publicity stunt.”
