Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, the movie features Aamir as Ryan, a college Student. Ryan is a handsome and adventurous guy who loves his friends more than his parents. For the softer look of a collegian, Aamir has to look leaner, slightly hunched and all covered up.

Raj Kumar Hirani of Munnabhai Fame has etched out the role of Ryan in a unique way. and Aamir is trusting him completely with it.
 “He’s not interfering on the sets and doesn’t even give his input to Raju,” the source said, “he’s concentrating on getting into his character and he’s got full faith in Raju’s script and direction.”
 Based on Chetan Bhagat’s best selling novel Five Point Someone, the movie will start shooting in early December in Bangalore. Major part of the movie will be shot in Bangalore. Kareena Kapoor plays the female lead.
 The movie will release in mid-2009.

Aamir Khan

In 2008, Mr. Perfectionist was in news when his nephew Imran Khan made his debut in Jaane Tu Yaa Jaane Na through Aamir’s production company. The duo made several public appearances together. They participated in Salman Khan’s game show Dus Ka Dum where Aamir and Salman reminisced about their Andaz Apna Apna Jodi days. In return, Salman Khan made an appearance at the Jaane Tu. premiere.
 Similarly, Amitabh Bachchan attended the Jaane Tu.premiere. He liked the film, especially Imran Khan’s performance. It was after this that rumours about Aamir planning to direct a sci-fi film starring Amitabh made the rounds.
• Aamir also went to meet the ailing Amitabh when he was admitted to the Lilavati hospital. • After success of Jaane Tu Yaa…, Kiran Rao, with the help of her husband, debuts as a director by taking Prateik Babbar in the lead.
• Aamir made headlines with his controversial statement directed at Shahrukh Khan. In his blog, he stated that his “dog’s name is also Shahrukh”. Aamir later said that it was a just joke. But the rivalry didn’t stop there.
• Then, during the making of Ghajini, the shooting had to halt for more than three weeks when Aamir injured his hamstring.
• His new bald look, which was specially done of his forthcoming Ghajini, is currently in the spotlight. • The latest talk of the town are the 8 pack abs Aamir has been sporting- one step up from Bollywood fitness freaks Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan and SRK. • He has also said in a recent interview that there is no war among the Khans.
• Now, all that the actor is waiting for is for Ghajini to release this Christmas. Let’s hope it’s as much of a hit as his Taare Zameen Par was.

Aamir Khan helped Jiah learn Urdu for & Ghajini

Jiah Khan, who thinks in English, got into trouble when she was asked to deliver lengthy emotional Urdu dialogues for 'Ghajini' in sync sound, but says that her co-star Aamir Khan bailed her out.
 I must admit it was a bit of a problem. Aamir and the director got me an Urdu dialogue coach, Athar Nawaz who guided me. And each time I'd be stuck with a line Aamir helped me out,' Jiah told IANS.
 My mom, who lives in London, flew down during the shooting. She speaks Urdu fluently. She ran through the dialogues with me over and over again. I think I've done my lines very well. To have my lines dubbed would have taken away from my performance. I think I managed my lines well,' she added.
 Other than speaking Hindi, Jiah, who debuted with Ram Gopal Varma's 'Nishabd', has also learned Bollywood style dancing.
 Like the Urdu-Hindi, I've mastered the dancing to a large extent,' she said.
Jiah has also shot a song titled 'Lattoo' in 'Ghajini' with choreographer Gita Kapoor. Ad filmmaker Ravi Udyawar has directed it.
 I realised how hard it is to do a sizzling song. The song is a very Jennifer Lopez kind of number. It's very stylish and chic. In a week's time, it goes on air. That should answer the question why I'm not seen in the publicity ;she said"
