While Rajkumar Hirani earlier revealed that his forthcoming film PK was made keeping Aamir in mind, he adds saying it was not the same case for 3 Idiots.

"For 3 Idiots, Aamir wasn't the first choice, but for PK he was. I had made Aamir listen to the basic idea of this film during 3 Idiots itself. I wanted to work with newcomers in 3 Idiots and I had even found three people. But while each was good in isolation, together they lacked chemistry. Then Aamir called and said, 'I can play the character' and we changed the casting,” he said.

Well, we bet the film wouldn’t have done well if not for Aamir and the rest of the cast. What say?

Watch out for PK as it hits screens on November 19.
