What Aamir Khan had to say about Meryl Streep's comments on Donal Trump

Reacting to veteran Hollywood actress Meryl Streep's comment on US President-elect Donald Trump, Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan says everyone has freedom to say things in a democratic country.

Streep, a supporter of Trump's rival Hillary Clinton, slammed the US President-elect in her speech while accepting
the Cecil B DeMille Award at the Golden Globe awards.

"I think how much freedom we have is dependent on us. I feel in India or abroad or anywhere let alone creative person, everyone has a right to say things in a democratic country and people also have the right not to agree to that opinion," the 51-year-old actor said in an interview here.

"I think in America some people would agree with Meryl Streep and some people wouldn't agree. I think in democracy
every person's voice has freedom."

Aamir feels everyone has responsibility towards making a better society. "I think everyone has responsibility towards society whether you are a celebrity or not. I think everyone should do their bit for the society. We can't expect celebrities alone to take up causes and work towards it. Everyone has a role in society," he noted.
