Bollywood actor Aamir Khan on Tuesday praised his wife and filmmaker Kiran Rao’s singing ability.

“At home, Kiran often sings for me. She is a very good singer, so I thought she should do the playback,” he said at the launch of a music video for the Satyameva Jayate Water Cup movement to conserve water, which Rao has sung for.

“The song is composed by Ajay-Atul and is directed by Nagraj Manjule of Sairat fame. A new singer has been introduced. Kiran has made her debut in singing with this song,” said the PK star.

About her singing debut, Rao joked: “Aamir forced me to sing. I was very nervous at the studio, but Ajay-Atul supported me a lot.”

About the Water Cup campaign, Khan said: “We wanted to make it a people’s movement. We started this campaign in three districts and now 30 districts have been included.”

“I am very much nervous, much more than the time when my film releases. I feel happy that my film Dangal has been well received. But I feel I will be happier when this campaign will succeed in the second round. That will be more satisfying for all of us,” he added.
