Mumbai, March 14 (IANS): Bollywood actor-filmmaker Aamir Khan, who turned 51 on Monday, said his wish is to buy a house for his mother in Varanasi, where she spent her childhood days.

Sticking to his annual tradition of cutting a birthday cake with the media at his residence here, Aamir, who sported a moustachioed look, said: "This year, my wish is I want to buy a house for my ammi (mother) in Benaras where she has spent her childhood days. I have been thinking about it for a long time.
