Does anyone think Aamir Khan was too old for this movie


I noticed immediately that this actor was too old to be playing a college kid. It made it weird to watch. He should have played someone's father or something. Is there such a shortage of young hindi actors over there?

I agree, big_kmc. Though Aamir did a good job, he was definitely too old (looking) for the role and they should have casted someone around the age of 30 years old instead.

Before this film, I don't know who is Aamir Khan (I'm quite new to Bollywood). Honestly, I see that Aamir Khan is a little old. But when I know exactly how old he is, I'm very surprised :D His line "Chandrashekhar Azad" is good, anyway.

In the Movie, Aamir's character says that he graduated 5 years ago, but hangs out at the college because that's where he is a "somebody".

According to the trivia section, IMDB maintains on this film, even Aamir thought he was too old for the film and was reluctant to take it up....
