Highlights

  • Aamir Khan is reaching for the lipstick and mascara again. He made a great drag queen in 1995 film Baazi's cabaret number Dole Dole Dil Dole, complete with high heels, a feathered boa and slinky black dress.
  • Aamir's many characters for the Tata Sky commercials also included a female one, with a long swinging plait and a Punjabi-kitsch outfit.
  • And now, 18 years after Baazi, Aamir's getting in touch with his feminine side again, for a new commercial.
  • For Baazi, Aamir spent hours in make-up on each of the eight days it took to shoot the song. He even waxed, ouch!
  • This time round, hindustantimes.com (Read) reports that make-up artist Mickey Contractor helped Aamir switch genders, and that there was shaving rather than waxing involved.
  • Aamir Khan was spotted wearing a skirt and a blazer during the film shoot (This picture was posted on Facebook by JustAamirKhan.com)
  • Aamir, who was shooting for Rajkumar Hirani's Peekay before this, gets our vote for Bollywood's best drag queen (with Riteish Deshmukh coming a close second!). So we cant wait to watch him in this commercial. (Read: Aamir Khan delays Dhoom 3 shoot for Peekay)
  • If you've never seen Aamir's cabaret song from Baazi, here's a treat:
