After facing a setback in his career after Laal Singh Chaddha failed at the box office, Aamir Khan decided to take a break from acting and focus more on his production house and personal life. However, the actor is likely to bounce back with his upcoming films. From a Taare of Zameen Par theme-based film to a Tollywood film by KGF director Prashanth Neel, Aamir Khan has several projects lined up. Here is the list of all upcoming Aamir Khan films.
Sitare Zameen Par
After taking a break from acting for a while, Aamir Khan is back with multiple projects as an actor and producer. Aamir told News18 that his next acting project will be the Hindi remake of the Spanish hit film Campeones, titled Sitare Zameen Par. He earlier offered the film to Farhan Akhtar but later requested to step down as he realized he should be playing the role instead. RS Prasanna is the director of the film. In Sitare Zameen Par, 9 people with their own set of problems will be helping Aamir’s character. According to sources close to the development, the Rajkumar Santoshi film with Aamir Khan will roll around Mid-2024 and the actor will be completing one film before moving on to this entertainer. The prep work is done and it’s ready to go on floors in January. It’s a quick 70-day film and Aamir will be able to get it ready for a Christmas 2024 release,” said a Pinkvilla source.
Mogul
Aamir Khan is on board for the Gulshan Kumar biopic titled Mogul. The actor previously walked out from the film following the #MeToo allegations against director Subhash Kapoor. Speaking to Hindustan Times regarding his return he talked about why he agreed to come aboard. “Well, Kiran and I were producing Mogul and I was acting in it. When we were doing the film we did not know that there was a case against Mr Subash Kapoor. I believe it is a five or six-year-old case. We are not too much in the media space, so I guess it slipped our attention. Last year, during the Me-Too movement, mention of this case came up. That’s when we got to know about it, and we were most disturbed. Kiran and I spoke about it at length. We were in a big dilemma for more than a week.”
“What we found is that, without exception, all of them spoke very highly of him. Not only did they not feel any discomfort with him, but rather they went out of their way to praise him. They said that he looked after everyone on his set with great care. Caring, sensitive, and supportive were the words used to describe him. Mind you, both Kiran and I are fully aware that these particular women may have had a very good experience working with Mr. Kapoor, but that does not mean that he could not have misbehaved with some other woman. However, I cannot deny that this interaction with women who had worked with him did give us comfort. And so, taking everything into account, I wrote back to IFTDA saying I have reconsidered my decision, and that I would come back on to the film.”
Lahore, 1947
Aamir Khan is producing Sunny Deol starrer Lahore, 1947. The actor talked about the film on Instagram via his production house. “I, and the entire team of AKP are most excited and happy to announce our next, starring Sunny Deol, directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, titled Lahore, 1947. We look forward to collaborating with the immensely talented Sunny, and one of my favorite directors Raj Santoshi. The journey we have embarked on promises to be the most enriching. We seek your blessings, A.” ETimes has exclusively learned that the actor will shoot a special cameo for the film.
