During the Covid-19 pandemic, Bollywood superstar and filmmaker Aamir Khan considered quitting cinema for good after dominating the Indian film industry for more than four decades. "I suddenly felt that I had spent all of my adult life in this magical world of cinema," he tells AFP in London. "And I perhaps not spent enough time with people I'm really close to." However, his family, including two children, eventually convinced him not to retire. Now, turning 60 in March, Khan hopes to "encourage new talent" through his company Aamir Khan Productions.
