What Aamir said
During the interaction, Aamir said in Hindi, "My family organised a party for me on my 60th birthday. It was one of those occasions where you have a memorable day with your friends and family. But what happened was… now I don't drink much nowadays, it is almost negligible. But that day, everyone insisted that I have a drink with them because it was a special occasion and I gave in. With me, the point is that I’m not someone who restricts himself; I’m an extreme person. Because I haven’t been drinking much, my body wasn’t used to it. We started at around 7 pm, and by 9 pm, I knew that I was buzzing.”
‘I had no memory of the previous evening’
He went on to add, “This has happened to me a few times. When I woke up the next morning, I had no memory of the previous evening. There were videos and photos, and they told me that everyone said nice things about me, but I didn’t remember anything. It was a blackout. I was conducting myself normally with everyone during the party, but the next day, when I woke up, I had zero memories of my 60th birthday celebration. There were pictures and videos from the day, but I had no memory at all, of how I reacted to the people when they were giving speeches. It was a clean blackout.”
