The identity of Aamir Khan's character in upcoming film PK is practically a state secret. It's safe to say he looks nothing like we've ever seen before and Team PK's certainly not telling who the bug-eyed and big-eared 'namoona' actually is.
Aamir has always been very guarded about the details of his films. Be it Lagaan, Ghajini or Dhoom: 3, Aamir and his team have tried their best to keep fans in suspense about his character.
Aamir's identity will be revealed on December 19, ending months of speculation, but because WE JUST CAN'T WAIT OKAY?, here are a few ideas we've had about the mysterious PK.
Could he be...
An alien?
Bottle green 'headlight'-like eyes, unnaturally popped 'flying saucer'-like ears and mannerisms that border on eerie - could PK actually be E.T? That may also be why he is seen roaming on a deserted railway track, stark naked with only a transistor (communication with outer space?) for company. Could he be an alien come to earth with or without a mission?
A superhero?

Could PK's bizarre get-ups be a massive double bluff? Could he be a spy, putting people off his scent by looking so ridiculous nobody could suspect him of spy-like activities? Subtle. Possible?
An astronaut?
And after all this speculation, why do we think Aamir could be an astronaut? Well, he says so.
