Aamir On His Future Projects
Aamir, who is currently promoting his upcoming film Sitaare Zameen Par, releasing June 20, also addressed other rumours. He dismissed reports about a sequel to his 2014 hit PK, saying, “‘PK 2’ is a rumour. I’m doing Dadasaheb Phalke biopic, Raju and I are working on it.” He will be reuniting with Rajkumar Hirani, the director of PK, for the biopic on Dadasaheb Phalke, considered the father of Indian cinema.
He also shared his long-standing dream project: a screen adaptation of the Mahabharata. However, Aamir admitted the project is still in early development. “‘Mahabharata’ has been my dream for the last 25 years… When you are making ‘Mahabharata’, you are not making a film, you’re surrendering… I’m trying, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to fulfil my dream,” he said.
When asked which of his past films could have a sequel, Aamir mentioned 3 Idiots, Dil Chahta Hai, and Sarfarosh. He said, “In Dil Chahta Hai, we can explore the mid-life crisis of the three boys. They could all be seeking therapy. That would be interesting.”
Even though Aamir’s upcoming project Sitaare Zameen Par is facing backlash online, fans are excited to see what he brings for them in the future.
