Ahead of Dangal's release, Aamir had everything good to say about the younger lot: "If I have to rate our performance in the film, I would say that these kids performed ten times better than what I did. No, I am not exaggerating anything. Once the film releases, the audience will understand. I have been working in the industry for last 25 years, but these kids are highly talented," he told IANS.
Aamir Khan is currently busy with promotional duties for Secret Superstar, which is scheduled to hit screens on October 19.
