Aamir turns teacher for the day!

Ahmedabad : It was the return’ of Ramshankar Nikumbh of Taare Zameen Par’ at the Indian Institute of Manangement, Ahmedabad (IIM-A) on Saturday.
Just that this was no school for dyslexic kids, but the country’s premier business school. The IIM-A new campus turned a fortress as Bollywood sensation Aamir Khan tiptoed in to take a class.
Students claimed the security for Aamir was much more than even for former president, Dr Abdul Kalam who took a few sessions here. Lensmen waiting outside the campus were allowed for five minutes, only after staging a near-protest.
So tight was the security that first the faculty entered the class and only then were students allowed after undergoing a thorough check.
Eighty Aamir-struck’ students of the class of 2009 who had opted for the Introduction to contemporary film industry’ course couldn’t keep their hands off their cameras and cell phones, clicking pictures of the star as he addressed them.
Those outside the class were so excited that they waited outside to get a peek of the Ghajini phenomenon for hours!
Uniformed guards hovered around the campus, questioning each and every person in sight for identity proof. Even students taking the course were allowed inside only after their professor in charge, Tejas Desai checked their names from a list outside the door.
Anita Kishor, a student who attended the class, said, “Aamir spoke about the general mechanism of how Bollywood works. The first part of the 90 minute session was his lecture, followed by a question-answer session.” Students asked him questions about his failures and the mantra of a successful film. “When asked where management students contribute or find areas of interest in the industry, Aamir said it could be in production houses or in promotion of the films,” said Kishor.
Another student said, “The most interesting part of the lecture was when Aamir shared how he selects the movies he does. “The script is the most important thing,” he said and he judged how he could add value to the character and the film. “Only if I see that I can add value to the film, I sign it”.
