It is known that Rajkumar Hirani is in talks with Aamir Khan for the biopic on Indian cricket legend, Lala Amarnath. Apparently, the perfectionist actor has been the ace director’s first choice for his movies, given their super success with 3 Idiots and PK. While Aamir has loved the subject and expressed his interest in bringing the late cricket icon to life on screen, things are yet to be finalised. Since their next collaboration depends on multiple logistics like final screenplay and dates, Hirani is also said to be contemplating an option in case his plans of making the movie with Aamir don’t materialise. Reportedly, the filmmaker has sounded off the subject to Ranbir Kapoor, who reprised Sanjay Dutt in the biopic Sanju, besides doing a cameo in PK. In case Aamir is unable to take up the Amarnath biopic, Hirani will offer the role of the late cricket great to Ranbir. The biopic is currently said to be in the scripting stages, and slated to go on floors later next year.
