"Aamir Khan has revealed that he did not know Shah Rukh Khan was originally offered Talaash. The 3 Idiots star said that he had not previously kept a record of such matters in Bollywood.   &amp;quot;I wasn&amp;#039;t aware that my film was first offered to Shah Rukh Khan. I don&amp;#039;t keep a tab on the first choice of my films. Maybe I&amp;#039;ll ask this question to the filmmakers henceforth,&amp;quot; he said. Aamir went on to say that the strong point of Talaash is its star cast, which also features Kareena Kapoor and Rani Mukherji. &amp;quot;The casting of this film is a big strength. The way the characters have been written make them all very important,&amp;quot; he revealed. &amp;quot;My role didn&amp;#039;t require too much research as in the case of Sarfarosh, where I played a cop too. The inputs for this role were different. No role is easy to play. I try to get into the mindset of the character.&amp;quot; The actor also addressed why the project is releasing later than initially planned. &amp;quot;The film was completed last year in November but we wanted to make a good film,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;Reema Katgi, my director, took some time in editing. The final product looks good and we have no regrets about the delay.&amp;quot; The music launch, which took place in Mumbai earlier this week, was attended by Khan and Mukherji, as well as Farhan Akhtar, Ritesh Sidhwani, Reema Kagti, Javed Akhtar, Zoya Akhtar, Ram Sampath and Bhushan Kumar.
