Bring in the trappings of stardom

Aamir Khan continues to bend the corroding rules of Bollywood. Emboldened by the success of "Taare Zameen Par" and "3 Idiots", he has come up with one more experiment with meaningful entertainment, "Peepli Live". In Delhi to promote the film, he says he always wanted to be part of cinema that tackles contemporary realities and now the situation is ripe with new cinematic aesthetics taking shape.
This time he is limiting himself to the production. "I wanted to act in it but each of the characters is so full-bodied and unique that I didn't see myself fitting into any of the parts." It is this ability to envisage ground-breaking ideas without bringing in the trappings of stardom that has made him a unique player in the industry. His success ratio is soaring when others are hiding behind recession and lack of quality scripts. Such is the faith in his products that the ‘small' film has already fetched Rs.10 crores in the form of satellite rights.

Please explain to me what "trappings" means in this context. Though I know generally means "to force somebody/something to be in a certain situation"
