Imran following Aamir’s footsteps

Imran Khan Imran khan is one lucky fellow. He has the most awaited dream debut to his credit with Aamir Khan's third production Jaane Tu...Ya jaane na after Lagaan and Taare Zameen Par , directed by Abbas Tyrewala. His uncle Aamir Khan is going head over heels to make his nephew's debut ‘The debut of the year’.

Both Mama - Bhanja have many things in common. Both of their first films i.e Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak and Jaane Tu... are young and fresh romantic films, where Aamir's second film was a film on sports, Imran’s second is an out and out thriller.

But one similarity between the two which very few people happen to know is that both of them started their career as assistant directors and both harboured dreams of becoming a director. Where Aamir assisted his uncle Nasir Hussain for 2 years before he did a screen test for his debut film, Imran too assisted various directors for some time before he gave a screen test for Jaane Tu....

Now after all Aamir finally made his directorial debut with Taare Zameen Par , we wonder when Imran will make his debut as a director.
