Aamir Khan turns a year older as he celebrates his birthday today and the actor is currently shooting in Jodhpur for his next, 'Thugs of Hindostan' with none other than Amitabh Bachchan. As the actor is having a working birthday, when a leading daily asked Aamir who he thought would be the first one to wish him, he replied that he was hoping it was his co-star, Big B. Well, we wonder if that came true!

On his experience of working with Bachchan for the first time, Aamir said, "Working with Mr. Bachchan was my dream and I’m really happy that I’m living it right now. I’m like a child in a toy shop and he is a complete joy to work with. His ability as an actor, his concentration, the effort that he puts in, his focus towards his work and above all, the kind of person he is, all this makes it a very enriching and memorable experience for me. So, it’s a dream come true."

On being questioned what his birthday plans were, he said, "My birthday plan is always to try and spend time with my mother. This year, as I’m away from home, I’ve requested my director, Victor (Vijay Krishna Acharya), to relieve me for a day. If that happens, I’ll travel to Mumbai to be with my mother. But if it’s not possible then she will come to Jodhpur. She’s the person because of whom I’m in this world, so I want to spend this day with her." Now, how perfect was that answer, right? Trust Aamir to not be able to absolutely melt your heart!
