Aamir Khan's son talks about his privileges

In an interview with Radio Nasha, ‘Loveyapa’ stars Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor discussed their upcoming film. During the conversation, Junaid shared his thoughts on the growing importance of social media presence for actors in today’s industry.

“Nobody has said anything negative to me, actually. I’m not on social media, so I have no idea. Producers will cast me even without seeing any public presence. Not many actors have that. It’s purely because of the family I come from," Junaid said.

I am happy where I am,” she said.
