Aamir open to Marathi films
Bollywood actor-filmmaker Aamir Khan says he is open to do Marathi films as long as the scripts offered to him are interesting.
"I can get along well with Marathi. If I get a good script, why not," he said here.
"Language has never been a barrier for me. I have learnt Marathi, so it will help my Marathi (speaking skills), but that's not why I will do a Marathi film. The material has to excite me," he added.
On the Bollywood front, Aamir will next be seen in "Dhoom: 3", releasing Dec 20.
