Oh Aamir!

I have often noticed that people who are pioneers in the world of Art tend to have an eccentric bone in their body. They are perfectionists, sucker for details and many-a-times obnoxious!

When I visited India this time, I saw the ads. of TITAN and Aamir in his hair-raising (literally) avatar. He grew his hair to fit the character of Mangal Pandey that he's playing in his next movie. It also meant that he was not doing any other movie until 'The rising' was released. (unless someone decides to cast him with his long hair and big moustache)
I was reminded of this quote "Striving for excellence motivates you, striving for perfection is demoralizing". In his quest for perfection, Aamir does one movie in five years, can their be anything more demoralizing for his fans?

I also concede that the role of Mohan Bhargava in Swades could have been played only by Shahrukh 'cause one of the requisites for this role was spontanity and heyyyyyyyyy...Shahrukh say zyaada spontaneous koi hai kya ?
