Junaid Khan may have kicked off his film career with Loveyapa, but did you know his journey actually ties back to an Aamir Khan film? That's right! Junaid shared that he was diagnosed with dyslexia, which inspired Aamir's classic, Taare Zameen Par. And as luck would have it, Aamir is set to return to acting in a spiritual sequel called Sitaare Zameen Par.
Junaid Khan shares that his personal experiences inspired Taare Zameen Par
In a recent interview that's blowing up on Reddit, Junaid Khan opened up about being diagnosed with dyslexia as a kid. Luckily, his parents, Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta, were super understanding and provided him with the support he needed. He even brought up the movie Taare Zameen Par, which revolves around this very issue. In the film, Darsheel Safary portrays Ishaan Awasthi, a dyslexic child, while Aamir plays the art teacher Ram Shankar Nikumbh, who becomes the only ally for the isolated kid.

Aamir has been on a break from acting ever since the Laal Singh Chaddha box office flop, but now he's ready to make a comeback with a spiritual sequel to his 2007 hit. The new film, called Sitaare Zameen Par, is a sports drama inspired by the Spanish movie Campeones. Set to hit theaters this Christmas, it features Darsheel alongside Genelia D'souza Deshmukh as the female lead opposite Aamir Khan.
Junaid Khan's first steps into acting
Junaid Khan kicked off his acting career with the Netflix movie Maharaja. Now, he's stepping into the spotlight with his first big-screen role in Loveyapa. Fun fact: this film also marks Khushi Kapoor's debut on the big screen, even though she started out in acting with Netflix's The Archies. Right now, the movie is having a tough time at the box office, especially with the buzz around the re-release of Sanam Teri Kasam.
