Bollywood actor Aamir Khan on Monday made a shocking announcement on his Instagram handle. Penning a long note, the actor said that he has decided to quit social media. Thanking everyone for their birthday wishes, the actor added that everyone could follow the official handle of his production house, Aamir Khan Productions, for updates about him and his films. It may be noted that the actor's production house started their Instagram account on Sunday.

"Hey guys, thank you so much for all the love and warmth on my birthday. My heart is full. In other news, this is going to be my last post on social media. Considering that I am so active anyway I have decided to drop the pretence. We will continue to communicate as we did before. In addition, AKP has created its official channel! So future updates on me and my films can be found there. Here's the official handle! @akppl_official Lots of love, always a," wrote Aamir, who celebrated his 56th birthday on Sunday.

Aamir's last release was Thugs Of Hindostan, which was a critical and commercial dissappointment. The actor is currently awaiting the release of Laal Singh Chaddha, a remake of Hollywood classic Forrest Gump.
