'I give Azad only Rs 2 (as Eidi). Zyada bigaad na nahi hai (I don't want to spoil him).'
He may be one of the highest earning stars in the country but Aamir Khan says he gives his son Azad Rao an Eidi of only Rs 2.
Aamir interacted with the media on Eid at his mother's residence in Mumbai.
When asked about what special plans he has today with wife Kiran Rao and their son, Aamir told reporters, "Kiran and Azad are not here, they have gone to Europe because Azad's school holidays are going on. I couldn't go because of work."
The 51-year-old actor, who is shooting for Dangal, said that he does not give any expensive Eidi to his young son.
"No special Eidi for him. I give him only Rs 2. Zyada bigaad na nahi hai (I don't want to spoil him)," he said.
The PK star said he prefers to spend time with his family on Eid.
"On Eid, I meet my family and spend time with them. When I was a kid, I was interested in Eidi more than Eid. But now I have to give Eidi."
On being quizzed whether the other two Khans -- Shah Rukh and Salman -- share biryani on Eid, Aamir said, "Yes, sometimes we do exchange biryani, but not necessarily only when it is Eid."
