City-based actor Madhav Vaze has played a small role in Bollywood’s latest sensation ‘3 Idiots’ and “this experience of working with Aamir Khan was most enriching and satisfying,” says the child hero of the Acharya Atre-directed Marathi film ‘Shyamchi Aai,’ which had won the President’s Award in 1950s.
In ‘3 Idiots,’ Vaze has played the role of father of Joy Lobo, a student companion of Aamir Khan who commits suicide due to his failure to complete a project within the deadline.
Speaking to Sakaal Times, Vaze said, “My role in the film lasts hardly a few minutes but the day-long shooting conducted for the scene offered me an insight into the personality of Aamir Khan as a talented and hard working actor.”
In the film, Vaze acts in two scenes, one receiving the news of Joy’s suicide and the second one at his son’s funeral on a rainy day where Aamir is also present. During the final rites, Aamir Khan sarcastically tells the college principal (Boman Irani) that he is lucky that the police have registered the death as suicide and not as a murder.
“Before giving the shot, Aamir wanted to know from director Rajkumar Hirani as to whether he delivers the dialogue soon after entering the cemetery or whether he says the sentence after being present at the site for some time,” said Vaze.
“The director did not understand why Aamir asked this question but having the theatre background, I immediately knew the reason behind the question. Aamir wanted to be in that mood and appearance depending on the answer to the question. When Hirani said that he is at the cemetery for a long time, Aamir asked for a bucket filled with water and poured four to five mugs of water on his face to make him totally drenched. This was despite the fact that all of us actors present there were already soaked with artificial showers,” said Vaze.
Aamir repeated this act three to four times for each take of the shooting of the dialogue and this only revealed his passion to be perfectionist, said Vaze. “After the shooting, Aamir sat with me along with Boman Irani and director Hirani.
