Aamir Khan is a 'Haanikarak Baapu' to his two daughters in the first song of his upcoming film 'Dangal'.
The 'PK' star released the track titled #HaanikaarakBapu at an event today in which Aamir, who plays the role of Mahavir Phogat, is seen training his two young daughters, Babita and Geeta for wrestling, without any prejudice of them being girls.
Composed by Pritam, the song beautifully portrays how the young girls have to kill their desires and kickstart their journey to glory.
The song is from the kids' perspective and the lyrics, written by Amitabh Bhattacharya, are funnier than the title.
'Dangal', slated to release on December 23, portrays the journey of Phogat and his daughters through the world of wrestling and how they overcome narrow-mindedness traditional notions of gender.
