Actor-director Aamir Khan has made a politician cry -- this time not in the reel life. At a special screening of Khan's directorial debut Taare Zameen Par in the capital on Friday, senior BJP leader LK Advani could not hold his tears as he watched the story of a dyslexic child recovering from his illness. "For the first time, I saw Advaniji crying. He has a very fine sense of cinema. I think he used to be a critic he told me and he had seen Lagaan as well when it had come out. So I was very happy to show him the movie because I was really keen to know his response," Khan said. The Leader of Opposition praised Khan for his latest hit. "Both the director and the script writer must be complimented. In many years, I have not seen such a film. I must express my gratitude to Aamir. It's a brilliant film in every respect. In spite of being a difficult topic, it has been presented so well that it touches the heart of the audience," Advani said. The Bollywood actor, who had earned the wrath of Sangh Parivar for supporting the Narmada Bachao Andolon in Gujarat in 2006, organised the screening of the movie for the veteran leader at Prasar Bharti's Film Division auditorium.
