With his latest home production 'Dhobi Ghat' releasing worldwide tomorrow, actor-filmmaker Aamir Khan today apologised to Rajak (washermen) community if he had unintentionally hurt their sentiments with the title.

Addressing a press conference, Aamir said people living in large cities do not understand the negative aspect of caste system in the hinterland.

"I believe in valuing other people's emotions, but not at the cost of compromising my creativity," he added.

Aamir said members of the Akhil Bharatiya Dhobi Mahasangh met him recently and voiced their resentment over the title.

"Initially, I thought they wanted to trouble me on the eve of my film's release. But, later I realised that their views were genuine. I told them that I would not have chosen the title if they had approached me a year earlier," he said.
