Aamir enjoyed the public reaction in person by sneaking into different theatres in the city.

At the bash, Aamir walked up to every table and introduced all crewmembers and thanked them personally for making the film so successful.
Buoyed by the success of ‘Delhi Belly’, Aamir now wants to experiment with more unique ideas.
"I have always experiment with films so whenever I venture for films I make sure I don`t repeat myself. Every time I want to challenge myself doing unique films," said the 46-year-old filmmaker who produced films like ‘Peepli Live’, ‘Dhobi Ghat’, ‘Taare Zameen Par’, ‘Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na’ and ‘Lagaan’.
The invitees at the party were friends and families of Aamir as well as the crew members of the film.
Actor Anil Kapoor and screenplay writer Prasoon Joshi were spotted, but they only came to meet Aamir and didn`t interact with the media.
