Demystifying strategy of Raju Hirani- the famous Bollywood director

This one’s for all <keyword id="6355923" type="PERSON" weightage="80" keywordseo="Aamir-Khan">Aamir Khan</keyword> fans! From the title to story, everything about this <keyword id="53697" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="raju-hirani">Raju Hirani</keyword> film has been the talk of the town ever since its first looks have been released. If you too are waiting for the release of year’s much-awaited film, <keyword id="6396827" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="PK">PK</keyword> with a baited breath, here are 10 facts that you must know: 
 
1. Aamir Khan will be seen in not one but nine unique avatars in the film. 
 
2. Aamir’s character in the film chews pan. Being Mr Perfectionist that he is usually known as, Aamir chew paan for every scene. In fact, on some days he ended up chewing more than 100 paans in a day just to get that perfect colour on his lips and the scene right! 
 
3. Everybody’s eyes popped out when Aamir went full monty for the poster of the film. But not many know that this particular poster was shot during the shooting of Dhoom 3, which was 2 years before PK. Since, he was required to be in perfect shape, there was no better time than Dhoom 3. 
 4. You’ll see Aamir talking in Bhojpuri language in considerable part of the film. To get the accent and nuances right, Aamir underwent intense training under the guidance of Bhojpuri TV writer <keyword id="335945" type="PERSON" weightage="40" keywordseo="Shanti-Bhushan">Shanti Bhushan</keyword>, who accompanied the star on shoots. 
 
5. PK was scheduled to release in June’ 14 earlier. But as luck would have it, the release date got postponed. It’s now releasing close to Christmas, which is a lucky time for Aamir, considering his last few hits including Ghajini and 3 Idiots, which released during the same time. 
 
6. Director Rajkumar Hirani wanted Aamir’s character to wear old clothes in the film. Hence, Raju and Aamir came up with the idea of sourcing Aamir's clothes from a different place this time. 
 
For the first time ever, the makers picked up clothes from random people on streets of the places they shot at. For instance, while they shot in Rajasthan, they wanted Aamir to wear the authentic print of Rajasthan. So, the team got down on the streets and requested common men to give interesting shirts that they had worn in return for money or a new shirt. Surprisingly, the strangers were very supportive and happily gave their shirts to the team. 
 
7. Just like his past movies including Munna Bhai MMBS and 3 Idiots, Rajkumar Hirani has conceived a special character for actor Boman Irani even in PK. While many say that Hirani considers Irani as his lucky mascot, the duo prefers to call it friendship. 
 8. Though Hirani is known as a director par excellence, for this special project he donned yet another hat! When <keyword id="6357860" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Anushka-Sharma">Anushka Sharma</keyword> and Kiran Rao failed to give a hook step for a particular song, it was Hirani who gave it and later asked the choreographer to direct rest of the moves.

8 Facts You Didn’t Know About PK

The other day Coldplay’s concert at Mumbai was wrapped up; there were tonnes of leftover plastic bags and bottles at the venue till the next day. After the media reported on the garbage dumped from the evening before, the cleaning process was begun by a handful of volunteers. Interestingly the audiences who attended the fest had pledged to support sanitation, hygiene and malnutrition for which the Global Citizen, the organizers stand for. 
 
Now this is the story of some citizens of India, some of whom won free passes to the musical concert after taking a pledge on sustainable development goals. Now you start worrying about the tourists who never made such pledges and biking on the highest motor able road in the world in Ladakh. For many tourists, who are visiting Leh and Ladakh are littering the place like hell. The pristine water of the lake as shown on the movie 3 idiots is now polluted. 
 
Remember Kareena Kapoor in 3 Idiots? Dressed in bridal saree, Kareena was riding a retro scooter and met Aamir Khan, her estranged lover. This was the climax scene of 2009 blockbuster movie by Raju Hirani. And then it all changed. Having given enough travel goals, tourists started crowding Ladakh like never before. 
 
Before the movie was shot, only 400,000 Indian tourists had visited Ladakh, home to 200,000 people in Jammu and Kashmir. However in 2011, after the movie became a major hit, the number of tourists jumped to 16,00,000, according to <a href="https://www.buzzfeed.com/arielbardi/what-has-3-idiots-done-to-ladakh?utm_term=.dnn6eE9J9#.tb1bB6YGY">Buzzfeed</a>. 
 
Pangong Lake, where major part of the movie has been shot has gained popularity like never before. But thanks to the crowd of tourists visiting Ladakh, the lake which is connected by several other lakes have plastic bottles, chips packets and other garbage dumped in it. While many volunteers did try to clean it, people clicking selfie and getting drunk on the bank kept littering. And this happens every day. 
 
It’s true that several locals have got a job, thanks to the movie. Anywhere you go, there is one 3 Idiots Cafe or Rancho’s cafe and those are running quite well and supporting the local population. What’s alarming is the callousness of the people. Ladakh is home to some unique floras and faunas. Nature conservationists warn, some rare floras couldn’t be traced since 2 years. If the situation persists, they might need to bring some strict rules in the land like Lakshadweep, where permits are required to visit. 
 
 
 
Moreover, scarcity of water in Ladakh has always been an alarming issue. And now with tourists crowding the place, there is not much alternative water source that has been traced apart from some recycling plants. 
 
Tourists like any other place need to realize the fact, as enjoyment is important for them, so is the survival of the people living locally.
