I have a base level of faith and trust that the choices he makes and the things he chooses to attach his time and energy to are made in good faith and with honesty. His episode on female infanticide (in Satyamev Jayate) angered a lot of folks who issued death threats.”Satyamev Jayate was a talk show hosted by Aamir Khan, which aired between 2012 and 2014.
