Aamir Khan clarified '3 Idiots' wasn't inspired by Sonam Wangchuk, saying neither he nor writers Rajkumar Hirani and Abhijat Joshi knew about him while making the film. "I saw.. video of Chatur (Omi Viadya) recently and he said that. He is wrong," Aamir added. "All of us are concerned for Sonam's life...[We] are hoping he ends his fast,” Aamir said.
