Trailer of Aamir Khan and Zaira Wasim-starrer 'Secret Superstar' is out and has created quite the whirlwind on the internet. Produced by Khan and wife Kiran Rao, the movie features Wasim, and Meher Vij in lead roles. The story revolves around a plot showing Zaira's dreams to become a famous singer and her father's decision against it.

Aamir said, “When I heard the story, I really liked it. When Advait (director Advait Chandan) asked me to do this role, I said I cannot see myself doing it. Even Kiran said the same. I said I'll do a screen test and if I do well, I'll take up the role. While doing it, I realised I was having fun.” Rao added, "When we saw the screen test, all of us laughed so much. We were totally convinced that he can be this strange creepy person. He did it so well that we had to believe. But he wasn't the original fit."

Rao was totally against the role Aamir plays in the movie, of a character she describes as the “kind of a guy you don't want to hang out alone in the room with.” However, Aamir's rockstar look went viral on the internet. The film will hit the theatres on October 20.
