If reports are true, Aamir is curious about making an action movie, and the actor is searching for what should be his next project.
Aamir Khan’s action movie dream
There is no doubt that Aamir Khan is one of the biggest superstars of Bollywood, having delivered multiple 300-crore hits like ‘Dangal’ and ‘PK’. He might have gone through a turbulent career with his last two releases, ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ and ‘Thugs of Hindostan’, but that doesn’t mean he is down and finished. Now there has been news regarding Aamir being thoughtful about doing an action film now.
According to a source in the industry, Aamir is interested in making an action movie, and the actor is searching for what should be his next project.
“Aamir has always been very good with action, and you can see that in films like Dhoom 3; Ghajini, Sarfarosh, and Ghulam. He took a break in between as he didn’t want to repeat himself with similar content. But now, Aamir is keeping an eye out for a script that will present him with an opportunity to do thrilling action,” a source told ETimes.
The source also added that Aamir had a chat with Yash Raj Films, asking if there was any way to work out a new film in the Dhoom series by reviving his characters of Sahir and Samar.
The market for action films
Why Aamir is too interested to do an action film? Well, today if a person looks at the business of the movie industry, action is believed to be the go-to genre. Shah Rukh Khan got a grand comeback with the action entertainer ‘Pathaan’ and he plans to follow the genre with ‘Jawan’. Salman Khan has the ‘Tiger’ franchise while Hrithik Roshan has ‘Fighter’ and Ranbir Kapoor has the ‘Brahmastra’ universe. Even OTT is witnessing a rise in action content with Varun Dhawan doing ‘Citadel’ and Siddharth Malhotra doing ‘Indian Police Force’.
Meanwhile, Aamir Khan was last seen in Laal Singh Chaddha. The movie struggled at the box office and failed to impress the audience. The actor spoke about his career and said he would take a year and a half off from acting when he made an appearance at an event in Delhi.
