Aamir Khan used to prevent Junaid Khan from learning acting, the evil of ‘Lapayap’, so spill pain – ‘I want …’

New Delhi: Junaid Khan, son of Bollywood actor Aamir Khan, made his theater debut with the romantic comedy film ‘Lavayapa’, in which Khushi Kapoor is his costar. The film was directed by Advaita Chandan and was introduced as Generation Z Love Story, which presents a new perspective on modern relationships. However, after releasing in February 2025, ‘Lavayapa’ faced a lot of criticism, especially due to its lack of originality and the debate of nepotism in the industry. Aamir Khan recently spoke on these criticism and told that he had not advised Junaid to learn acting.

Aamir Khan told YouTuber Raj Shamani, ‘When’ Lavayapa ‘was released, I liked the film very much and felt that Junaid had done a good job. The role she played was quite different from her real personality. Junaid has this quality – he gets into the character. I think that film gets a very negative reaction. It was very trolled, pulled into nepotism and called the film ‘Napo Kid’.

Aamir Khan does not want to interfere in son’s career
The superstar further said, ‘But Junaid and I are not like this. Till now I have not intervened in his career nor do I want. In fact, I tried to stop him from learning acting. Aamir also told that now he is paying more attention to Junaid’s success. He said, ‘I want him to be successful, happy and he gets recognition for his work he deserves.’

‘Love Today’ is ‘Lavayapa’
The title track of ‘Lavayapa’, Lavayapa Ho Gaya, had to face criticism due to its old scene and strange choreography. Social media users described the song as ‘Cring’ and ‘painful’. Some questioned the performance. ‘Lavayapa’ was called bad for the lack of its originality, as it was a remake of the 2022 Tamil film Love Today. After Maharaj and ‘Lavayapa’, Junaid Khan will be seen in ‘Ab Ek Din’. Aamir Khan is supporting the next film and it also stars Sai Pallavi.
