Aamir Khan to start shooting for ‘Thug’ post the release of ‘Dangal’

B-town’s Mr Perfectionist Aamir Khan has recently disclosed that soon after the release of his biographical sports drama, ‘Dangal,’ he will commence filming for Vijay Krishna Acharya’s ‘Thug.’ Speculations are rife that the 51-year old actor will be seen playing a father to three teenage girls.

It will be more of a lighter character with lots of pun involved, in particular, which is exactly contrary to his part in the upcoming ‘Dangal,’ according to a report.

As per reports, the role was initially offered to Hrithik Roshan, but due to his demand for changes in the script, the deal couldn’t work out. Later, the director approached the ‘Ghajini’ actor with a tweaked script.

Aamir, who is known for taking ages to decide on a movie, reportedly said yes immediately after going through the storyline.
