Earlier, Pinkvilla quoted a source as saying, “The Kishore Kumar biopic is a subject close to the hearts of Anurag Basu and Bhushan Kumar. Aamir is also a huge admirer of Kishore Kumar and loved Basu’s vision.

The filmmaker treated it very differently and that’s what fascinated Aamir the most.” The source added, “Aamir took as many as six films into consideration. While the scripts of Kishore Kumar’s biopic, (special public prosecutor) Ujjwal Nikam’s biopic and (filmmaker) Rajkumar Santoshi’s comedy are locked, Ghajini 2, (filmmakers) Lokesh Kanagaraj’s next and Zoya Akhtar’s next are in development phase. Of the six films, he will make three for sure and may give up the other three.” We tried to contact Kumar and Basu but received no response.
