Aamir Khan Has Confirmed His Next Project

After nearly two years since he signed his last film, 3 Idiots, Aamir Khan has confirmed his next project as an actor.

The film, so far untitled and to be directed by Honeymoon Travels film-maker Reema Kagti, is a suspense thriller. Khan will co-produce the film with Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s Excel Entertainment.

While rumours were rife that Aamir, who had been approached by directors Rajkumar Santoshi and John Mathew Matthan, would play the anti-hero in Dhoom 3, he chose the script penned by Kagti and Zoya Akhtar instead.

"I’ve said yes to Reema’s film. I’m really excited to start shooting in February," Khan said. "I thank my lucky stars that Aamir liked our script," said Kagti. "We approached him some months ago; we’re glad he’s agreed." Pre-production for the film starts in December.
