Now, the actor is coming up with yet another biopic based film for his next. The film ‘Saare Jahan Se Accha’ is renamed ‘Salute’ and will be based on Rakesh Sharma’s life.
Aamir has already started prepping up for the film so much so that he began working on the script of the film during the shoot of ‘Dangal’. The movie will be helmed by Mahesh Mathias and will be produced under Siddharth Roy Kapur’s banner.
