Vir Das Reveals How He Got Aamir Khan to Back Happy Patel Khatarnak Jasoos

Actor-comedian Vir Das has shared the story behind roping in Aamir Khan to support his upcoming film Happy Patel Khatarnak Jasoos. According to Das, the collaboration was born out of a cold call and a compelling script.

Vir revealed that he reached out to Aamir Khan through a simple message. Intrigued by the concept, Khan agreed to a meeting. Once he read the script, the superstar was on board not as an actor, but as a mentor figure, lending support and insights during development.

Das emphasised how Khan’s involvement brought clarity and weight to the project, adding that the legendary actor never interfered creatively, but his feedback helped elevate the film’s direction.

With Aamir Khan backing the vision, Happy Patel Khatarnak Jasoos is now generating significant buzz, especially as Das promises a quirky, intelligent comedy unlike anything on the current Bollywood slate.
