Aamir Khan
On his birthday in March, Aamir Khan indicated that he was in talks with director RS Prasanna of Shubh Mangal Saavdhan (2017) fame for his next. At the time, mid-day had reported that the project in question is inspired by the 2018 Spanish film, Campeones, which revolves around a temperamental basketball coach who, as part of his community service sentence, builds a team comprising the intellectually-disabled for the Special Olympics. Now, it is learnt that things are moving at a brisk pace on the project. The production team has been instructed to prepare for a September shoot.

A source reveals, “Aamir wants to commence work on the film after the August release of Laal Singh Chaddha. Given the sports drama’s subject, it will be largely shot outdoors. The makers wanted to avoid filming in the city in the rains. So, beginning September, it will be a two-month straight shoot.” For the first schedule, the set will be erected at Film City. Khan will also produce the project. Meanwhile, sources suggest that another production, titled Preetam Pyaare, from the superstar’s stable went on floors in Lucknow last week.
