In recent years, Bollywood’s top Khans have been increasingly collaborating with South Indian directors, resulting in massive box office successes. Shahrukh Khan teamed up with director Atlee for the blockbuster ‘Jawan,’ which earned a staggering ₹1,150 crores worldwide. Salman Khan, too, has been working with renowned South director AR Murugadoss on an upcoming film titled ‘Sikander.’ Now, the latest news is that Aamir Khan, the third Khan of Bollywood, is also set to collaborate with a celebrated South Indian director, Lokesh Kanagaraj.
Aamir Khan Joins Hands with Lokesh Kanagaraj
Lokesh Kanagaraj is a prominent name in South Indian cinema, known for directing films featuring megastars like Thalapathy Vijay, Kamal Haasan, Rajinikanth, and Suriya. According to a report from Akashvani (formerly Twitter), Aamir Khan, Lokesh Kanagaraj, and Mythri Movie Makers are coming together for a pan-India film. The report, citing sources, confirms that this collaboration is indeed happening, and fans can expect something big.
Official Announcement on the Horizon
The collaboration between Aamir, Lokesh, and Mythri Movie Makers is still in the discussion phase. The team is reportedly planning an advanced-level discussion to finalize details. If everything goes according to plan, the official announcement of this film could be made soon. This news has already created a buzz on social media, as Aamir Khan has a massive fan following eagerly awaiting his next project.
Aamir Khan’s Recent Hiatus and Upcoming Projects
Aamir Khan has not appeared in any film since his last release, ‘Laal Singh Chaddha,’ which didn’t perform well at the box office. His fans have been eagerly waiting for his return to the silver screen. The news of his collaboration with Lokesh Kanagaraj has reignited excitement among his fan base.
While details about this new pan-India film are still under wraps, Aamir has another film set for release soon. He will be seen in ‘Sitare Zameen Par,’ a film inspired by his 2007 hit ‘Taare Zameen Par.’ Directed by R.S. Prasanna, the film also stars Genelia Deshmukh and is scheduled for release during Christmas this year.
Aamir Khan’s Need for a Box Office Hit
Aamir Khan’s recent films have struggled at the box office. After the success of ‘Secret Superstar’ in 2017, he delivered two flops: ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ in 2018 and ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ in 2022. Following these setbacks, Aamir took a brief hiatus from acting. His upcoming film, ‘Sitare Zameen Par,’ is crucial for his career, as it is expected to mark his comeback.
Besides acting, Aamir Khan is also venturing into film production. He is producing a film titled ‘Lahore 1947,’ which features Sunny Deol in the lead role. Aamir will also make a cameo appearance in the film, adding to the anticipation.
