In a statement issued by Aamir Khan's team, it was emphatically stated, "We wish to clarify that Mr. Aamir Khan has never endorsed any political party throughout his illustrious 35-year career." This declaration underscores Khan's steadfast commitment to maintaining political neutrality, a stance he has consistently upheld. Instead, Khan has dedicated his efforts towards fostering public awareness, particularly through active participation in voter awareness campaigns conducted by the Election Commission during previous electoral cycles.

Furthermore, the statement elucidated Khan's proactive response to the circulating video, revealing that he has taken formal legal action by lodging a complaint with the Mumbai Police Cyber Crime Cell. This demonstrates Khan's unwavering resolve in combating misinformation and safeguarding his reputation against baseless allegations. Emphasizing the paramount importance of democratic participation, Khan encourages citizens to exercise their right to vote, reinforcing the fundamental cornerstone of electoral democracy.

Shifting focus to Khan's recent cinematic endeavors, his most recent venture, "Laal Singh Chaddha," failed to achieve the anticipated success despite high expectations. Directed by Advait Chandan and co-starring Kareena Kapoor, the film received favorable reviews from critics but fell short of significant commercial success at the box office. Nonetheless, Khan remains undeterred as he looks forward to a diverse array of upcoming projects.

In addition to his role in "Laal Singh Chaddha," Khan made a cameo appearance in the film "Salaam Venki." Presently, he is preparing to assume a pivotal role in the forthcoming movie "Sitare Jamen Par." Moreover, Khan's creative endeavors extend beyond acting, as evidenced by his role as a producer for the critically acclaimed film "Lapata Ladies," directed by Kiran Rao.
