In 2015, Kashyap was miffed with Aamir and director Rajkumar Hirani when they took over his Christmas release date of Bombay Velvet for PK, which forced Kashyap to postpone his film. Bombay Velvet is now better forgotten, so who cares for their history?

As for Aamir Khan, the actor is currently in prep mode for his upcoming film Laal Singh Chaddha, which is an official remake of Tom Hanks-starrer Forrest Gump (1994). Laal Singh Singh Chaddha is touted as much-anticipated films of Aamir since his last outing Thugs of Hindostan failed to create its charm at the box office and in the hearts of the audience. The film is set to release during Christmas, in the next year 2020. The film is written by Atul Kulkarni which will be directed by Secret Superstar fame, Advait Chandan and co-produced with the association of Viacom 18 Motion Pictures.
