While speaking to the news portal, the Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak actor said, “I used to drink sometimes, but I don’t anymore. Some people take two pegs and they are sorted. But I was never one of those who drank regularly. I used to drink on occasions, but whenever I did sit down to drink, I would down the entire bottle. And I felt that that was not okay.”

He further added that nothing major had happened with him in the state of intoxication that he would regret later. “The fact that a person is no longer under their own control, that didn’t sit well with me,” concluded the Dhoom 3 hero.

Aamir consumed a bottle of vodka to shoot for the song ‘Tere Ishq Mein Nachenge’ in the 1996 film ‘Raja Hindustani’.

He got drunk for another scene in 3 Idiots.
