Aamir Khan, who is on a 14-day Haj pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia, met up with Pakistani cricketer Shahid Afridi during a prayer meet.

The 47-year-old actor, who finished shooting for the Chicago schedule of Dhoom 3 recently, flew down to Mumbai for the music release of his upcoming film Talaash, before taking off for Haj. His mother Zeenat is accompanying him.

Apart from Afridi, Aamir also met other former Pakistani cricketers like Saeed Anwar and Inzamam-ul-Haq, and Maulana Tariq Jameel, a well known Islamic scholar from Pakistan.
