Aamir Khan and Sunny Deol are collaborating for the first time for a new film, Lahore 1947. However, they won’t be acting together in the movie. Aamir has made an interesting announcement about his next project as a producer. Raj Kumar Santoshi will be directing the film, Lahore 1947, produced by Aamir Khan Productions, which will feature Sunny Deol as the lead.
Aamir took to the Instagram account of his production company to share the news. “I, and the entire team at AKP, are most excited and happy to announce our next, starring Sunny Deol, directed by Raj Kumar Santoshi, titled Lahore, 1947. We look forward to collaborating with the immensely talented Sunny, and one of my favourite directors Raj Santoshi. The journey we have embarked on promises to be most enriching. We seek your blessings, A,” he wrote.
Sunny Deol is currently enjoying the success of his latest release, Gadar 2. The film grossed more than 525 crore at the box office, and it became the highest-grossing Hindi film in India of all time, surpassing Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathan. However, just a day later, Shah Rukh’s latest release, Jawan, knocked it off the top spot and became the ATBB.
Sunny and Aamir have never worked together in the past. However, the two have had a few notable box-office battles as competitors in the past. In 1990, Aamir Khan’s Dil and Sunny Deol’s Ghayal were released on the same day, leading to the first clash at the ticket window. In 1996, there was Raja Hindustani vs. Ghatak, followed by the most epic box office fight in Indian cinema in 2001, when Lagaan was released on the same day as Gadar.
