Sonam Wangchuk Responds to Aamir Khan's Denial of Prior Meeting Before 3 Idiots
Sonam Wangchuk responded to Aamir Khan's claim that they had never met before the film 3 Idiots, which Khan said was not inspired by Wangchuk. Wangchuk referenced a resurfaced video showing Khan attending an event where Wangchuk was honored, joking that Khan, dressed as his Ghajini character, may have suffered short-term memory loss. Wangchuk acknowledged their detailed meeting and suggested the character was influenced by him, though not directly based on his life.
