It seems that last year has been very tiring for Aamir Khan. Ghajini's star has finally decided to take a year off from work. He wants to spend this time in traveling, reading scripts and watching films. He also wants to spend some time with his children. The functioning of his production house, Aamir Khan Productions will not be affected.

Source close to the actor revealed that Aamir is finally taking a year off after Raj Kumar Hirani's 3 Idiots is complete. He is currently in Bangalore shooting for the film.

Source added: 'Actually, he was planning to take a sabbatical last year after Taare Zameen Par, where the double responsibility of directing and acting sapped him. But then he was coaxed into doing Ghajini and then began his physical reorientation, the muscle-building and body-toning that really exhausted the method actor. But Aamir is now ready to take the long-pending break. He won't be doing any films for the next one year.'
