Aamir Khan turns Ganguly fan

In a new stunt to promote 3 Idiots, Aamir Khan dressed up as a young fan of former Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly and tried to barge into his house here.

Sporting a black shirt, moppy hair and tattoos, with a bag slung over his shoulder, Aamir looked like any star-struck fan as he tried to enter the Ganguly's south Kolkata residence.

Talking with a protruding chin, he kept pestering the security guard at the gate saying, "Dada ghar pe hain? Mere ko dada se milna hai, photo khichana hai. (Is Dada at home? I want to meet him and get a photo clicked with him). The guard failed to recognise the star and did not let him enter the premises.

But later in the day, Aamir dropped his disguise and finally entered Ganguly's house and joined his family for dinner along with wife Kiran Rao, who is a huge fan of the cricketer.

The couple was welcomed by Ganguly's wife Dona, who had just returned from a dance performance, his mother and daughter Sana.

Aamir looked at all the photographs and trophies and in the house and remarked that the 37-year-old cricketer shouldn't have retired so soon and that he was personally disappointed with the retirement.

Ganguly will read out the fourth clue among the seven, the first of which was read out by another star cricketer Sachin Tendulkar.
