Aamir Khan, who is currently in London, is in attendance for Wimbledon 2024. The Bollywood star recently spoke to former tennis player and commentator Vijay Amritraj about his tennis days and why he quit the game at a young age. In the chat shared by Star Sports India, Vijay brought up Aamir’s past with tennis and revealed that the actor was a “very good player in the junior level” and was the Maharashtra State Champion.
Aamir blushed as Vijay praised him and said that he really enjoyed the game but didn’t think he could have made it in tennis. “I don’t think I could have ever made it to any significant level but I really enjoyed the game so I had a lot of fun while playing it. And then one fine day, my dad decided that I should stop playing so I stopped,” he said. He then added, “Well, I think I am very happy where I am so yeah and good for tennis that I didn’t continue.”
Aamir, in the same conversation, said that this was his second time at Wimbledon. He previously attended the Men’s Final in 2023 with his children Junaid, Ira and Azad. Describing it as a “wonderful experience,” Aamir said that he has largely watched tennis on television but recalled attending French Open in person a few years ago.
Aamir Khan has not appeared in any films since 2022’s Laal Singh Chaddha. He will next be seen in Sitare Zameen Par, which is scheduled to release in December. The actor took a sabbatical from films after the failure of the film and said that he was stepping away to spend more time with his family.
