For a long time, there has been talk about Aamir’s interest in collaborating with South Indian directors. He is reportedly playing a key role in Rajinikanth’s Coolie, which is already star-studded. A couple of months ago, speculation floated online that the star Bollywood actor was holding talks with Telugu director Vamsi Paidipally.
A recent report in Telugu media claimed that Aamir has given his nod to the project and that it will go on floors next year. It is further said that Dil Raju will bankroll this prestigious film. Dil Raju was the one who introduced Vamsi Paidipally, and ever since then, the ace-producer has been collaborating with him frequently.
Vamsi Paidipally’s last film was Varisu with Thalapathy Vijay, which ended up being a commercial success. If Vamsi directs Aamir Khan, it will help him get more offers in Bollywood. Currently, Aamir is busy with the post-production works of Sitaare Zameen Par, which is expected to release during Summer 2025.
