"I think Indians love cinema, so we will be welcoming all kinds of cinema. The only thing is that we have not actively gone out and looked for it. There is a very small percentage of Indians who would go on the internet to look for DVDs of world cinema and (films in) different languages.
"Unless a film doesn't release in theatres, we don't really look for it," the popular star told IANS.
"PK" is a colossal hit in China, and Aamir is "sure if Chinese films release in India, people would go to watch them".
