Two filmmakers, whose projects have been turned down by Shah Rukh Khan, are now approaching Aamir Khan to do their films.
After negotiations with SRK failed, director Rajkumar Hirani has reportedly offered Aamir his next film. The actor has had a meeting with the director and producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra and a verbal agreement is said to have been reached between them. But there has been no official announcement of it yet.
On a different front, South Indian director Shankar (whose last project Sivaji was a superhit) had planned a movie called Robot with Shah Rukh Khan but the project could not take off because of creative differences between the superstar and Shankar.
Now, Bollywood grapevine says Shankar has spoken with Aamir about playing the leading role of a scientist in the sci-fi thriller.
Aamir, who is presently neck-deep busy in work before the release of his home production Taare Zameen Par , admits having met Raju Hirani but doesn’t confirm having signed the film.
