<p>Superstar Aamir Khan, who is currently prepping for his next film "Dangal", is keen to meet a fan who is suffering from progeria.</p>
<p>Progeria is an extremely rare genetic disorder wherein symptoms resembling aspects of ageing are manifested at a very early age.</p>
<p><img title="Aamir Khan" src="http://images.mid-day.com/images/2015/dec/07aamir-khan.jpg" alt="Aamir Khan" width="670" height="654" /><span style="font-size: x-small;"><em><strong>Aamir Khan</strong></em></span></p>
<p>The unnamed fan, who is suffering from this disease, shared a post on Facebook where he mentioned that he wants to meet the "PK" star and thank him for the movie "Taare Zameen Par", which gave him courage.</p>
<p>"I want to meet Aamir Khan and thank him for the movie 'Taare Zameen Par' which gave me courage, but there's not much progress on that one yet! To be honest, I don't know much about the illness I have, except that I have the rare power of being young and old at the same time," the fan had written.</p>
<p>The 50-year-old actor took notice of the post and replied that he would "love" to meet him.</p>
<p>"Hi my friend, you haven't given your name... I would love to meet you. Please let me know when and where, and I will be there. Love. a. P.S. I am so glad that you liked 'Taare Zameen Par'," he wrote.</p>

<p>The 2007 film "Taare Zameen Par", which was directed by Aamir, revolved around a teacher essayed by the "Ghulam" star and a boy played by Darsheel Safary with learning disabilities who share a special bond.</p>
<p>The boy also revealed his harrowing experiences when he was compared to Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan's character Auro in the film "Paa" by his classmates due to his condition.</p>
<p>"When I was in the 4th standard and the movie Paa released, my classmates began teasing me and calling me Auro -- I felt terrible at that point, so I came home and told my parents. My dad told me to tell them 'to chill' and that 'I'm special' -- so I did. I don't blame those who don't understand me, they like me are children after all," he wrote.</p>
