Junaid Khan, the son of Bollywood star Aamir Khan, is set to make his debut. He will appear alongside Khushi Kapoor, the daughter of Bollywood legend Sridevi, in a romantic film.
Directed by Advait Chandan – Aamir’s most trusted director – the new untitled project will introduce Junaid to the rom-com genre.
Reports suggest, Aamir Khan dreamt of casting Sridevi and himself together in a film that Aamir had himself written.
The B-town star had once narrated his imagined Sridevi-Aamir project to a TV programme – a dream that never come. However, now comes the next generation, and this time it is happening for sure. Sridevi’s daughter Khushi and Aamir Khan’s son Junaid are coming together
The untitled film is a remake of the 2022 Tamil hit Love Today, which was directed by Pradeep Ranganathan and produced by AGS entertainment comprising Kalpathi S Aghoram, Kalpathi S Ganesh and Kalpathi S Suresh.
The Hindi version with Junaid and Khushi is being produced by Shristi Behl and Phantom Films, the illustrious banner which once gave us epoch-defining films like Queen, Masaan and Udta Punjab. The banner Phantom Films is making a comeback with this Junaid-Khushi starrer directed by Advait Chandan.
"Aamir is very excited by this project. He once dreamt of working with the great Sridevi. Now his son is going to co-star with Sridevi’s daughter. He feels it is karmic,” said a report quoting a source.
