Tuesday, 30 May 2017 07:00

After the gigantic success of Dangal, it was needless to say that all the eyes were being trained on Aamir Khan’s next film.

While on one hand, in his true blue style, Aamir Khan announced his next as Thugs Of Hindostan, on the other hand, he rocketed the stakes of the film by stating that, his co-star in the YRF produced film will be the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, no less! Ever since the film’s announcement, it has been making news for all the right reasons.

Recently, a certain section of the media was abuzz with the rumour that Thugs Of Hindostan has been inspired by the Hollywood hit Pirates Of The Caribbean. Recently, during the media meet for Dangal, Aamir Khan clarified the rumours and put it to rest forever by saying, “Not true, the film (Thugs Of Hindostan) has not been inspired by any film. It is an action adventure film. Neither the film’s story nor my character is similar with any other character.”

Besides Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan, Thugs Of Hindostan also stars Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh. Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, Thugs Of Hindostan is expected to be released during Diwali next year.
