New actor Tahir Raj Bhasin, seen as a child trafficker in Mardaani, is over the moon after being praised by none other than Aamir Khan.

The film has impressed Khan and he took to Twitter to share his views and in his tweet he also mentioned Bhasin as being superb in the film, which has been made tax-free in two states.

“That was huge, I didn’t sleep the whole night. I was forwarding it to family and friends. I don’t think there can be a bigger praise. So it’s big,” Bhasin said on Tuesday at a press meet of Mardaani.

“I was very sceptical about the way people were going to respond to the character... But critics liked it and then to hear it from Aamir Khan, it’s huge. I cannot thank him enough,” he added.

Mardaani stars Rani Mukherjee as senior inspector Shivani Shivaji Roy who fights the child trafficking mafia.
