That Facebook friend you don't know about could be Aamir Khan

And the buzz about Aamir is that he is an active member of several social networking sites such as Facebook, Orkut and Twitter. So what’s new about that? Nothing, except that he interacts with youth on these sites under a pseudonym, a common one for all sites. That way he gets to peek into young minds and understand first hand their reactions to films, social issues, sports and other fields. Rather like the emperors of yore, who would roam as commoners to understand their loyal subjects.

Hmm, so that’s how he’s managed to make such great youth-centric films as Rang De Basanti and Jaane Tu…

All I can say is that Aamir is really the master of the game, net savvy, youth savvy, and miles ahead of his rival Khans….and that’s why he is my favourite Khan!

PS: And the next time you get a message on Facebook from an anonymous friend, asking you how you feel about the next Aamir movie, you know who could be at the other end!
