Aamir Khan is in the news for all the good reasons.
First, his Dangal bowled us over and we've been raving since.
Now, the actor has launched the Water Cup anthem, which has a beautiful video directed by Sairat director Nagraj Manjule. It asks drought-stricken villages of Maharashtra to participate in the 'Water Cup Challenge' to be held between April 8 and May 22.
Titled Toofan Aala, the song has been made for the Satyamev Jayate Water Cup 2.
