In a recent group interaction, Aamir revealed a major collaboration that has fans buzzing. The actor confirmed he is teaming up with popular Tamil filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj—marking their first-ever project together.
“Lokesh and I are working on a film. It’s a superhero film, a large-scale action project, and we’re looking to begin in the second half of next year,” Aamir shared. “It’s still two years away, so I can’t reveal too much right now.”

Aamir also opened up about Mahabharata, the project he has often described as his most ambitious dream. “I’ve been dreaming about making Mahabharata for the past 25 years,” he said. “It’s not just a film, it’s like performing a yagna. It requires immense preparation, which I’m still working on.”
He remained tight-lipped about the casting and timelines, stating that the project is still in a very early stage. “Until I lay a solid foundation, I can’t speak much. It’s a long journey,” he said.
