Talking about Aamir, director Reema Kagti said the actor provided creative inputs for the film.

"Aamir has given creative inputs. I appreciate that. He was quite respectful of my vision. He tried to bring his best. And with Kareena and Rani also in, it was a dream cast," Reema told reporters.

Aamir was also all praise for Reema. "I have worked with lady directors in the past including my wife, Deepa Nair and now Reema.. it is always great to work with them. It is irrelevant whether the director is male or female. She is perceptive of performances, I was guided a lot by her. I saw her demanding as well as open, I could trust her instincts," he said.

There were reports that earlier Shah Rukh Khan was to play the role of Aamir. When asked about the same, Reema said, "I would not like to talk about things that did not work out. This happens in films. I am happy with main and secondary cast of Talaash."

When asked about it, Aamir was clueless that Shah Rukh was approached for the role that he played in the film. "I was not aware who was offered the film."

The film releases on November 30.
