Aamir Khan calls Mahabharat one of his 'biggest ambitions': REVEALS interesting details

Aamir Khan's dream to produce Mahabharat for years is finally shaping up. In an interview recently, Khan confirmed that he will be producing the epic story, which will be developed into several films. Khan's love for telling stories and his passion to produce this legendary epic have been driving forces for the project.

Aamir Khan's role

When questioned about his participation in the project, Khan replied that he will surely be producing Mahabharat, but as an actor is not yet confirmed. "As a producer; actor, we will see," Khan said, adding that casting will depend on who is appropriate for each character.

Multiple films, multiple directors

With the scale of the project, Khan feels that Mahabharat cannot be narrated in one film. Rather, it will be a multi-film projection, and maybe even with different directors. Khan used the example of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, where shooting all the portions simultaneously demanded a bigger vision. "If we have to schedule it in a certain time frame, we may need different directors," Khan stated.

A massive undertaking

The film will be a huge production, with a huge budget and a talented ensemble cast. Khan's ambition is to give justice to the epic and bring India's rich cultural heritage to the fore. The film will involve careful planning, research, and execution to do justice to the epic and present it to the world.

Sitaare Zameen Par: A future film

As all that is going on, Aamir Khan is preparing to release his latest movie, Sitaare Zameen Par, which will hit the stores on June 20, 2025. The movie, directed by R.S. Prasanna, also features Genelia Deshmukh. Khan's acting in the movie is much anticipated by both fans and critics.

The significance of Mahabharat

Mahabharat is an epic and has been at the centre of Indian culture for centuries. Its story, being that of Pandavas and Kauravas, has been interpreted, retranslated into different genres and media of arts. The new adaptation with Aamir Khan is poised to give the new generation an unadulterated story experience, along with a changed treatment of events from the beginning itself.

Mahabharat can become a global blockbuster

Aamir Khan's Mahabharat venture is a colossal endeavor that will be a game-changer in Indian film. With its rich cultural heritage and epic narrative, Mahabharat can become a global blockbuster. As Khan takes on this ambitious venture, fans and critics are waiting with bated breath for its release.
