Aamir Khan was supposed to start work on Rakesh Sharma biopic right after completing Dangal. However, the actor bagged Yash Raj Films' Thugs Of Hindostan and is currently shooting for the same.
A couple of months ago, rumours were doing the rounds that Mr Perfectionist wanted versatile actor Ranveer Singh to essay the titular role of Rakesh Sharma in the biopic. The latest buzz has it that Khan has opted out of the project.
If a report published in one of the leading entertainment magazines is to be believed, Aamir has decided to bow out of the big-ticket project. The report further adds that the makers are now looking for a suitable replacement.
Tentatively titled Salute, the Rakesh Sharma biopic is being produced by Siddharth Roy Kapoor.
It is being said that Aamir Khan has said no to the project as he has shown interest in the Kishore Kumar biopic over Salute.
It will be interesting to see who the makers rope in to fill the shoes of Aamir Khan.
