Of Aamir's character in the film, the makers had same same but different opinions. Aamir's wife Kiran Rao, who is also the producer of the film, said, "He is a music director, who is having a bad time. Such characters are not written on a daily basis."

Actress Zaira Wasim, who earlier shared screen space with Aamir in Dangal, features in the lead role as Insia in Secret Superstar. In the video, she commented on Aamir's 'weird shoes and jeans' he wears for the film.

The film's writer and director Advait Chandan said, "In his (Aamir) personal life, he is very simple and organic. I think for him to wear tight T-shirts was a little weird."Secret Superstar's choreographer Sanya Malhotra called the character an ill-mannered person, who does not know how to talk to people.

Aamir is currently filming Yash Raj Films production Thugs Of Hindostan, which is directed by Dhoom: 3's Vijay Krishna Acharya. The film also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh.
