Did Aamir Khan's height ever affect him? Actor reveals

• Aamir Khan's height put him into an inferiority complex.
• He admitted having insecurities related to his short height.
• He explained that insecurities often arise in the beginning.

Actor Aamir Khan recently revealed that he felt insecure about his height early in his career. In a candid conversation with Nana Patekar on Zee Music Company's YouTube channel, while promoting Patekar’s upcoming film Vanvaas, Aamir admitted to having an inferiority complex about his 5'5" stature during his early days in Bollywood.

“Yes, I did. I used to feel that what if people don’t accept me because of my height. This was my fear,” Aamir shared. He explained that insecurities often arise in the beginning but fade over time. “Later, I realised that all of this does not matter at all. But at that time, some kind of insecurity creeps in,” he added.

This isn’t the first time Aamir has spoken about this issue. In 2012, while promoting Talaash, he recalled being called 'tingu' (a slang term for short). Over time, however, Aamir learned that appearance doesn't define success. “The things that stress us out in the beginning, we later realise that these things don’t matter at all. What is important is how honestly you are working and how your work can enchant people.”

Last seen in the 2022 film Laal Singh Chaddha, Aamir is set to return with Sitaare Zameen Par, a sequel to his acclaimed Taare Zameen Par.
