Sounds like Pirates of the Caribbean? Aamir Khan and Yash Raj Films have apparently decided to take time and improve the script of the magnum opus further so that there are no flaws absolutely. That’s not very surprising given Aamir’s penchant for perfection and his nickname Mr Perfectionist! Vijay Krishna Acharya, who directed Aamir and Katrina in the third instalment of the Dhoom franchise, is directing Thugs of Hindostan too.
On the work front, Katrina Kaif is gearing up for the release of Kabir Khan’s Tubelight alongside Salman Khan. The period drama, inspired by the Sino-Indian War of 1962, is expected to hit theatres on 23rd June. According to director Kabir Khan, Salman plays a ‘different and challenging kind of role’ in the movie, the story of which is based on the Hollywood film Little Boy. The film also stars Salman Khan’s brother Sohail Khan in the role of his brother. Tubelight marks the Bollywood debut of Chinese actress Zhu Zhu and also stars late actor Om Puri.
