Karan Johar to direct Aamir Khan in his next

Mumbai: After getting him on the couch for a candid chat, Karan Johar has now roped in Aamir Khan for his next directorial.

Dharma Productions has already begun the pre-production work on the project.

This was not something the industry saw coming as Karan Johar and Aamir have never been known to be best friends.

In fact, Aamir had even mentioned on the show that how he was never too impressed by the filmmaker’s talkative ways. But that is all in the past now.

A source reveals, “Equations are always subject to change. In the industry, it’s the script that brings both parties together. Karan had a script that Aamir couldn’t refuse and hence gave his nod to the project. It’s a script that is very close to Karan and he felt that Aamir would best suit the role.”

Nowadays, the two meet regularly to discuss the script in detail.

An insider tells us that Aamir has been calling Karan every day to his office and their meetings stretch over many hours.

The source adds, “Karan visits Aamir’s office almost daily. In the initial stages, it is vital to convince Aamir about all the scenes, as he is very particular about the script that will eventually go on floors. But once the shoot begins, he doesn’t interfere much. He only gives his inputs during the pre-production stage.”

When two master entertainers join forces, one can expect nothing short of fireworks on screen. Well, we surely cannot wait for this one!
