Aamir Khan’s ambitious project Mahabharata not shelved?

A couple of days ago, rumours were swirling around that Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan has stopped pursuing his dreams of making a multi-million film on Indian epic, Mahabharata. However, if reports are to be believed, the project is still in the pipeline.

A well-placed source reveals that Aamir wants to start work on the project after doing proper research. He has also asked his manager Advait Chandan, who directed Secret Superstar (2017) for his production house, to do the groundwork.


“Aamir knows the amount of pressure and risks that will come attached with the film. He wants to make it after doing proper research. So he has asked his manager Advait Chandan to do the groundwork and only after that is complete, will he check if he has enough material to go ahead with the project. Meanwhile, he will reportedly be seen in the Gulshan Kumar biopic that will go on floors soon after Thugs Of Hindostan releases.”

Buzz has it that the project will be mounted on a whopping budget of ₹ 1000 crores. Initially, there were reports that business tycoon and Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani was ready to invest money in the making of the film. However, no official confirmation was made by anyone associated with the project.
