New Delhi: A day after the government confirmed that he is no longer a part of its Incredible India campaign, Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan said: “Whether I am brand ambassador or not, India will remain Incredible, and that’s the way it should be.”
“It is the prerogative of the government to decide whether they need a brand ambassador for any campaign, and if so, who that ambassador should be. I respect the decision of the government to discontinue with my services,” he added.
Khan (50), triggered a controversy over stating that intolerance was growing in India.
Wednesday evening, tourism minister Mahesh Sharma said the actor would not feature in the massive campaign to market India with foreign and other tourists because the government’s contract with advertising agency McCann Erickson had expired, and it was the agency which had arranged for Khan’s participation.
