Aamir Khan leads in Kiran's film Dhobi Ghaat

Aamir Khan has agreed to star in Dhobi Ghaat, the directorial debut from his wife Kiran Rao.

Khan, who recently wrapped up shooting 3 Idiots, confirmed that he would play a leading role in the film following extensive media speculation.

The 44-year-old actor wrote on his blog: "The cat is finally out of the bag. I’m playing one of the leads in Kiran ’s film Dhobi Ghaat.

"The reason we kept this under wraps is that she didn’t want to attract much attention to her film. She wanted to make this film on real locations with a tiny crew, very guerrilla style."

He added: "So we had to do it very quietly. And for once we managed to keep a secret from the media, at least until we finished the shoot."
