It is known that Aamir Khan is producing movies with filmmaker-friend Rajkumar Santoshi. The first is Lahore 1947, which sees the director reunite with his Ghayal (1990), Damini (1993) and Ghatak (1996) actor Sunny Deol. The period drama set around the Partition is being readied for a January 24, 2025 release, in keeping with the Republic Day holiday. We hear that the second collaboration is a comic caper in which Santoshi is keen to cast Aamir. The duo, who had been keen to work together again about three decades after Andaz Apna Apna (1994), have finally found a suitable subject and have tentatively titled the film Char Din Ki Zindagi. However, one can’t say for sure which movie the actor-producer will take up next. More so as he has been approached for quite a few films. One of them is a collaboration with Zoya Akhtar, another with Three of Us director Avinash Arun, and a couple of pan-India projects with acclaimed filmmakers from the south. Aamir is currently overseeing the post-production of his upcoming release, Sitaare Zameen Par, with director RS Prasanna. Only after both these under-production films are complete, will he think about his next movie.
