Superstar Aamir Khan turns 50 on 14 March. Mr Perfectionist has given his 30 years to the film industry and still continues to serve.

Khan, who will celebrate his 50th birthday on Saturday, have always managed to treat his fans with blockbuster films every Christmas. From "Ghajini" to "3 Idiots" to "PK", Khan's films, which were released during the year-end, were the highest grossers of those years. However, he made his Bollywood debut as a child artiste in his uncle Nasir Hussain's film "Yaadon Ki Baaraat" (1973).

Though, the latest Rajkumar Hirani directorial "PK" landed itself in several controversies, the story and his performance pulled itself out of all negative reviews.

Interestingly, this year the trio Khans – Aamir, Shah Rukh, Salman – will turn 50. Reportedly, Aamir's wife Kiran Rao has planned something special for her husband's birthday.
