He thought back to his days playing tennis and explained why, despite being skilled, he gave up. Aamir won the Maharashtra State Championship and was a "very good player in the junior level."
Aamir said, “I don’t think I could have ever made it to any significant level but I really enjoyed the game so I had a lot of fun while playing it. And then one fine day, my dad decided that I should stop playing so I stopped,” he said, adding, “Well, I think I am very happy where I am so yeah and good for tennis that I didn’t continue.”
He further revealed, “Well, to be honest, I've been here only once to actually watch it live which was last year. I came with my kids and it was a wonderful experience, really wonderful experience and as I was saying earlier, up until now, I've watched it on television through Star Sports. And but when you watch it live, you realize just how fast the game is and how amazing the players are and the whole atmosphere, the excitement of watching it live is something else.”
