The BTS clip captures Sunil impersonating Aamir during a scene with Vir Das, while Aamir watches from behind the camera. At one point, Aamir is even seen guiding Sunil on how to perform a particular moment. As Sunil breaks into a mock-crying act, Aamir bursts into laughter, unable to control himself. He is seen clapping and laughing along with the rest of the crew, clearly impressed by Sunil’s performance. The text on the video reads, “We were all in awe of the genius of Sunil Grover.”
The team member also shared a group picture from the shoot, featuring Sunil and Aamir posing together in matching outfits with the entire crew. The caption read, “Never laughed so much on any other set! Perks of working with an absolute A-team.”
Sunil first mimicked Aamir Khan on The Great Indian Kapil Show. In the episode, which featured Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday, Sunil joked about marriage and even took a dig at Jaya Bachchan’s remark on the paparazzi while mimicking Aamir. His mimicry impressed fans, with many calling it ‘pitch-perfect’.
Watching Sunil mimic him on The Great Indian Kapil Show, Aamir told Subhash K Jha in an interview for Bollywood Hungama, “I wouldn’t even call it mimicry. It was so authentic, I felt like I was watching myself. I saw a small clip, and now I’m going to watch the whole episode. What I saw was priceless. I was laughing so much I couldn’t breathe! There was no malice in it at all. I must have laughed the loudest.”
