He rides a donkey, sports curly brown hair and wears a hat. Aamir Khan, who unveiled his look from "Thugs of Hindostan" on Monday, sports an intriguing avatar for his role as the wily Firangi in the Yash Raj Films project.
Aamir shared his look via a motion poster on social media, and penned a message in Hindi for his fans.
Introducing his character, he said people won't find a more honest person on earth than him, and that honesty is the second name of his character.
"Thugs of Hindostan", directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, promises to be the biggest visual spectacle on the big screen with jaw-dropping action sequences and an epic war on the seas.
The makers have pulled off an incredible casting coup by bringing together Amitabh Bachchan -- who plays the role of the fierce warrior Khudabaksh -- and Aamir on screen for the first time. It also stars Katrina Kaif as performer and Suraiyya and Fatima Sana Shaikh as the daredevil Zafira.
It will light up Diwali with its release on November 8.

A child can see similarity between Aamir Khan's character in #ThugsOfHindostan and Jack Sparrow. Excitement gone kaboom. Another copy or as they say 'inspired'.
