Taking about Aamir Cameron said, "I am honoured to be sharing the stage with Aamir Khan. He is on top of his game and it is his birthday tomorrow and he chose to attend the session with me foregoing his birthday, so I consider that a great honour."
The perfectionist star also admired Cameron's cinema though he himself has never been part of any Hollywood film.
To this comment, Cameron quickly retorted: "We could fix that as soon as possible."
Aamir Khan also rued about the fact that the fact that Bollywood is technologically far behind Hollywood.
"I find that Hollywood spends so much time and effort on research and development, which we lack in India. I have always wanted to go to L.A. and learn the techniques of special effects. Maybe someday I could visit your studio and you could show me what you've done with Avatar," told Aamir.
