Aamir Khan’s son Junaid starts his journey in Bollywood from today. According to sources in a leading daily, we hear that Junaid Khan starts shooting for his debut film Maharaja today. The film is backed by Yash Raj Films and is directed by Siddharth P Malhotra. The film is based on a true incident from 1862 and with Junaid having a theatre background, the actor has prepared a lot for his role and made sure he fits the bill. “The director and his production design team were setting up the groundwork over the past month. A massive set has been built in Vijay Nagar in Marol where the period drama will be shot,” says a source to the leading daily.
The film is based on Jadunathji Brijratanji Maharaj who was a religious leader who had dragged reformer-journalist Karsandas Mulji to court, as he had penned down a “libellous” article. Junaid Khan will play the role of Mulji and we’re quite curious to watch Aamir Khan’s son in this one.
YRF has launched several stars in the past.
