‘Three Idiots’ is not the story of Sonam Wangchuk’s life at all! This is what Aamir Khan has claimed. Sonam has been fasting for the past 19 days at Jantar Mantar. He is on hunger strike demanding the resignation of the Education Minister and fair conduct of the examination. In response, Rancho (Aamir Khan) clarifies that none of the producers knew Sonam Wangchuk’s name during the making of Three Idiots.
Actors-singers from Bollywood and across the country stood by Sonam and gave messages. Actor Atul Kulkarni is on a one-day hunger strike.
Sonam’s fast entered its 20th day on Friday. Finally, newlywed Amir opened up about this. “It’s actually a misconception. I saw a video of Chatur (Omi Vaidya) a few days back, but he’s wrong. But neither director Rajkumar Hirani nor writer Abhijit Joshi knew about Sonam when the film was made,” he said at a British Film Institute event.
According to Aamir, whether Sonam is involved in Three Idiots or not, her work should be respected. Everyone is worried about his life. The star hopes that Sonam will end her hunger strike.
But Aamir’s comments sparked controversy. Because Sonam herself has said that Three Idiots is inspired by her life. Although it has nothing to do with the story of the film. But the whole country knows Sonam as ‘Real Life Ranch’.
Director Anurag Kashyap saluted Sonam for taking the initiative to dedicate her life for the future of the country’s students. Veteran actress and director Aparna Sen expressed concern over Sonam’s 17-day fast on social media. Actress Swara Bhaskar met Sonam at Yantar Mantar. Sonakshi Sinha, Shabana Azmi and Zeenat Aman also gave messages. But Aamir’s comments have sparked controversy.
