After nearly a decade away from the limelight, Imran Khan is finally making his much-anticipated return to acting. Known for his roles in films like Delhi Belly and I Hate Love Stories, the actor has been missing from the screen since 2015. For the past year, Imran has been hinting at a comeback, but now the news is confirmed. Imran Khan has found the right project, and he’s set to make his re-entry into the entertainment world after 9 years.
Reports suggest that Imran was waiting for a script that matched his style, and now the wait is over. Fans are excited to see him in action again, as he gears up to star in a new project.
Aamir Khan to Help Shape Imran’s Career Again
Interestingly, Imran’s return will be under Aamir Khan Productions, with Aamir playing a key role in grooming Imran’s career once again. Imran’s uncle, Aamir Khan, who first launched him as a lead actor in Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na back in 2008, is taking him under his wing for this new venture.
The upcoming film will be Aamir Khan Production’s first OTT release and will be directed by Danish Aslam, who had previously worked with Imran in Break Ke Baad. While specific details about the film’s script remain under wraps, it is rumored to be a romantic comedy, a genre in which Imran has previously shone.
From Almost Returning in a Web Series to Finding the Right Script
Imran’s last movie was Katti Batti in 2015, after which he stepped away from the industry. He was reportedly waiting for a script that resonated with him. A few years ago, there were talks of him starring in a web series directed by Abbas Tyrewala, who had directed him in Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na. The project was set to be a spy thriller, but it was shelved before it could go into production. Imran had been cast as an intelligence officer in the series but later revealed that he wasn’t too keen on portraying a character who solves problems with a gun.
Imran Khan’s Career: From Child Star to Leading Actor
Imran Khan’s acting journey began long before his Bollywood debut. As a child artist, he appeared in Aamir Khan’s 1988 hit film Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak and again in Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar (1992). His real breakthrough came in 2008 when he was launched by Aamir Khan Productions in the romantic comedy Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, alongside Genelia Deshmukh. The movie was a box-office hit, and Imran quickly gained popularity among younger audiences.
However, his biggest hit came with the 2011 film Delhi Belly, a bold and unconventional film that showed Imran in a new light. Despite his initial success, Imran’s career gradually slowed down, with his last few films not performing well at the box office. After Katti Batti, Imran decided to take a break from acting.
New Beginnings for Imran Khan
Now, with a new project on the horizon, Imran is ready to make his comeback. His return marks a fresh start, and fans are eager to see him back in action. With Aamir Khan’s guidance and a promising new script, Imran could be heading towards another successful chapter in his career.
