Mumbai: Remember the opening sequence of ‘PK’ when Aamir Khan, an alien, lands on Earth in Rajasthan?

He seemingly wore nothing in that scene as he first walked and then ran.

So how did he actually shoot that scene?

Aamir was characteristically candid when he spoke about his experience on The Great Indian Kapil Show.

Recalling the challenges he faced while filming the introduction scene in the Rajkumar Hirani film, Aamir told Kapil Sharma that the director had assured him of a pair of shorts which would be like an abdominal guard with minimum crew members on the set.

“On the day of shooting, I did wear those shorts. I came out with the radio. Raju had said no phones on the set. He hid everyone’s phones. I had to run in that scene. Till the time I was walking, it was okay, but when I had to run, the shorts would come off because it was fixed by tape,” Aamir recalled.

“I faced a lot of difficulty in that shot. I had to run fast, but I couldn’t. After one or two attempts, I told Raju, ‘Hata yaar (Let’s remove it).’ I wanted to give the perfect shot. So I chucked it (shorts) aside and told everyone to go far behind the camera… and I ran,” Aamir revealed.

The versatile actor spoke of how it felt to have shot the scene without an inch of clothing on his body.

“I used to think that it would be really weird to walk naked on the set. We are not used to it. I used to feel anxious about how I would do it. Everyone would be watching. I was feeling very embarrassed. I swear, when I came on the set, I just wanted to work, and my shot was getting messed up. So I told Raju, ‘These are unimportant things. What’s the big deal if you see me naked? We need to get the shot.’ I didn’t feel embarrassed at that time. I was also shocked that I did it,” Aamir confessed.
