Actor Aamir Khan on Friday withdrew his resignation from the copyright committee, set up by Minister for Human Resource Development Kapil Sibal to bridge differences between film producers and creative personnel over the proposed amendments to the copyright law.

In his communication to Mr. Sibal, Mr. Khan said he would return to the committee in view of the Minister’s intervention and the reiteration of faith in him by other committee members.

Mr. Khan had walked out of the committee on Wednesday after an altercation with lyricist Javed Akhtar.

Later, Mr. Akhtar and six committee members sought Mr. Sibal’s intervention in getting Mr. Khan back on board.
