Aamir Khan, being the perfectionist he is termed as, is known for his dedication and cinematic sensibilities. And thus it doesn't surprise us when Aamir's films not only work well with the audience in India, but also manages a massive worldwide collection at the box-office.
'Kung Fu Yoga' director Stanley Tong too had a desire to work with the star. He had approached Aamir to star along with Jackie Chan in the film. However, Aamir had to opt out of the film as he was then shooting for 'Dangal'. As the 'Kung Fu Yoga' team was currently promoting the film in India, in an interview with PTI, Stanley opened up about approaching Aamir for the film. He said, "I love Aamir Khan. He was busy with his own films when we were to do this film (Kung Fu Yoga). He was doing 'Dangal', I haven’t seen the film yet but I would love to. If in future there is something for Aamir, I will definitely work with him.”
Talking about his friendship with the actor, Stanley further added, "We are good friends. When he came to China to promote 'PK', we were always together. I like him and his films 'PK', '3 Idiots', 'Dhoom 3', and a few others. I would love to show him 'Kung Fu Yoga'.
