Aamir's father figure in 'Dangal' makes daughter Ira 'very happy'

The trailer of Aamir Khan starrer 'Dangal' has totally blown audiences away with the kind of thundering response that it has gathered.

Interestingly, news is the 51-year-old actor's real daughter Ira Khan is 'very happy and glad' with the particular role of her dad playing a father figure to four girls.

Unlike his earlier films like 'Raja Hindustani', 'Fanah' and 'Talaash', where he played a father but to sons alone, Aamir finally essays the role of a father to girls.

A spokesperson confirmed saying, "It's for the first time that Aamir will be playing a father figure of 4 girls, the curiosity and the anxiety of the audiences to witness the same is increasing."

"Aamir's transformation has been phenomenal, the actor has gone under some rigorous preparations and training to essay the role of the wrestler Mahavir Phogat. The actor has left no stone unturned," the spokesperson added.

Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the film hits theatres on December 23 this year.
