Aamir Khan is currently on a sabbatical from acting after the release of 'Laal Singh Chaddha' last year, is all set to make his return to the silver screen. The talented actor has been spending time with his family, focusing on his production house and reading scripts


According to the report in Pinkvilla, Aamir Khan has joined hands with his 'Dangal' co-star Fatima Sana Shaikh for his new project. The film will be directed by Advait Chandan, who has 'Secret Superstar' under his belt. 


As per the reports, the yet-to-be-titled film will be a lighthearted comedy drama and will include an ensemble cast. The report further states that Advait is currently refining the script and the filming is scheduled to begin in the first half of 2023.


On the work front, Aamir Khan has announced his upcoming film. Amid a short break from acting, the superstar confirmed returning to the big screen with a project titled Sitare Zameen Par. He made it official during an interview at the News18 Amrit Ratna Samman in Delhi, Aamir reacted to the title's similarity with his film, Taare Zameen Par. Aamir said during the interview, "I have not spoken about it publicly and I won't be able to say much now also. But I can tell the title. The title of the film is Sitare Zameen Par. You must have remembered my film Taare Zameen Par and the name of this film is Sitare Zameen Par because we are moving 10 steps ahead with the same theme. Taare Zameen Par was an emotional film, this film will make you laugh. That film made you cry this one will entertain you."

He added, "The theme is the same that's why we kept this name very thoughtfully. We all have flaws but have something special,  so we are taking forward this theme." In Taare Zameen Par (2007), Aamir's character Ram Shankar Nikumbh helps Darsheel Safary's Ishaan Awasthy, a dyslexic young boy.

However, it would be the opposite in Sitare Zameen Par. He shared, "In Sitaare Zameen Par, those 9 boys, who have their own issues they help me. It's the opposite."
