EXCLUSIVE: Aamir Khan and Suriya to shoot Ghajini 2 simultaneously; Allu Aravind brings out a new strategy

by

As a dedicated cinephile with decades of film viewing under my belt, I must say that the prospect of Ghajini 2 simultaneously being filmed in both Hindi and Tamil, starring none other than Aamir Khan and Suriya, has me absolutely thrilled! This is an unprecedented move for a sequel to such a cult classic, and it’s refreshing to see the industry stepping away from remakes and embracing originality.

Previously this month, it was TopMob who broke the news that Aamir Khan has been talking about a follow-up to the 2008 hit movie, Ghajini, with producers Allu Aravind and Madhu Mantena. We shared with our readers that the creators of Ghajini have proposed an idea to Aamir, and he requested they create a storyboard. Later on, we found out that Allu Aravind intends to produce Ghajini 2 in its original language – Tamil – with Suriya as the main actor. Kanguva star Suriya himself confirmed this development in an exclusive chat with TopMob.

Regarding Ghajini 2, Suriya shared an interesting tidbit: “It’s quite unexpected that you’re asking me about it now. After a while, Allu Aravind proposed the idea of a sequel, wondering if it was feasible. I agreed immediately, saying we could certainly consider it. Discussions have started, and things are moving forward. It seems Ghajini 2 may indeed become a reality.

As an ardent fan, I’ve been buzzing with excitement ever since I heard the news about Ghajini 2! According to what I’ve gathered, due to the pan-India wave, remakes of cult films featuring star-studded casts seem to be a thing of the past. However, two legendary actors, Suriya and Aamir Khan, are both thrilled by the prospect of Ghajini 2, but they’re adamant about avoiding the “remake” label for their film. They’ve shared their concerns that whichever film releases first might steal the novelty factor. After listening to both actors, the producers, Allu Aravind and Madhu Mantena, have come up with a brilliant solution: they plan to shoot both Ghajini films concurrently and release them on the same day! This is certainly a plot twist I can’t wait to see unfold on the big screen!

According to our source, Aamir and Suriya have agreed in principle to the concept of a simultaneous release for the sequel to the popular film Ghajini. They are currently waiting for finalized scripts before signing any contracts. The actors understand the weight of this project, as the original has significantly impacted both their careers. Their goal is to create an authentic sequel, not one driven solely by financial gain. The scripting process is ongoing, and we should have a better understanding of Ghajini 2’s progress by mid-2025.
