There is full sequence in Aamir Khan’s upcoming Taare Zameen Par in which Abhishek Bachchan is praised as one of the hottest stars in the country.

The reference is made in terms of him being one of the most successful stars and how he has created ‘Dhoom’, overcoming the reading difficulties that he had during childhood (dyslexia).

“Aamir Khan, who plays an art teacher in the film, points to a photograph of Abhishek Bachchan and tells a kid, ‘ Aap toh inko jaante hain, inhe bhi padhne mein problem hota tha, lekin dekho aaj duniya mein Dhoom Machaye hue hain ’ (All of you know him. Even he had a reading problem but look at where he is today) The entire class starts singing the song from ‘Dhoom Macha le’ after that,” says a source who watched the film at one of the film trials. Aamir took special permission from Amitabh Bachchan before using the actor’s example in his film.

When contacted, Abhishek Bachchan said, “Yes, Aamir has taken permission from us before using my name and photograph in the film.” Other famous dyslexic people include Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Alva Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, Winston Churchill, Keanu Reeves, Albert Einstein and Tom Cruise.
