About Junaid Khan's Bollywood debut
Ahead of Junaid's acting debut, his father, Aamir, announced his maiden venture as a producer. During an interview, the superstar confirmed that his son will be producing the film, titled Pritam Pyaare. In his statement, Aamir said, "Junaid is now entering Bollywood as a producer like my father. With a new director and new team, I am happy with his work. I am doing a cameo in his movie for 5 minutes."
Junaid's Maharaja is directed by Siddharth P. Malhotra. It reportedly stars Jaideep Ahlawat. Rumours are rife that the film will be released directly on OTT after Yash Raj Films announced its collaboration with Netflix. The film has yet to be officially announced.
