Thursday, 7th August, 2014, 05:20 PM IST Actor Aamir Khan has left many intrigued and many others ridiculing him over his nude look in the poster of his upcoming film ‘PK’. Recently, a group of women had complained against the standee of a nude Aamir kept in a Bandra theatre.
Now we hear that the star has come out to defend the nudity in the poster and standee. He rubbished the statements that said this was a publicity stunt, and instead called it ‘key art’.
According to Aamir, the poster depicts the story of the film. Defending the poster, he said, “When you will watch the film then only you will be able to understand the idea behind the poster. But I would just like to say that the kind of filmmaker, the kind of writer Rajkumar is, he always tries to present the things, his thinking, in a unique way and that's why I am his huge fan.”
Citing the example of one of his earlier film ‘Taare Zameen Par’ he further reasoned, “In the poster of 'Taare Zameen Par', the child actor Darsheel Safary is sitting in the front on the school bench and I am sitting behind him. So it is a kind of key art...the image that tells you much about the story and so is the poster of ‘PK’. This is not for publicity, not for us atleast. In fact, this poster imbibes all the elements of the film.” |
