Aamir Khan confirms being a part of Kishore Kumar biopic?
In a video going viral on social media, Khan is seen singing Sa Re Ga Ma, while Sucheta Bhattacharjee plays harmonium. The teacher-student duo looks completely immersed in the moment as they perform. As soon as the video was shared, the audience took to the comment section and expressed excitement at Khan’s talent.
With this video, we can also confirm that the actor is for sure preparing intensely for Kishore Kumar’s biopic. While Ranbir Kapoor was initially attached to lead the biopic, recent rumours suggested that Aamir Khan would step into the shoes of the maverick artiste. In an exclusive cat with mid-day, the filmmaker opened up about the project and said, “No comment,” he chuckled, before adding, “Until everything is finalised and the contract is signed, I don’t think I should speak on it.”
Basu’s long-cherished project has gone through an eventful journey, with the makers earlier struggling to get the approval of Kumar’s kin for the story. “This project went through a lot of ups and downs. So, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it happens this time and I go on set with the story, which I’ve been trying to tell for the last decade. So, I won’t jinx it by speaking about it.”
Aamir is getting trained under classical singer Sucheta Bhattacharjee. When mid-day reached out to her to know about actor being a part of the project, she was tight-lipped. But when probed about her superstar student, she revealed, “People call him a perfectionist, but what I see is sincerity and curiosity. That’s the true mark of a good student.”
