Director Rajkumar Hirani still hasn’t finalized the cast of his upcoming film.
Hirani will be revealing the inadequacies of modern education system in his next film, ‘Idiots’, which is learnt to be based on author Chetan Bhagat’s novel ‘Five Point Someone’.
The story is about three IIT students. To play one of them, Hirani has approached Aamir Khan . The actor has given his nod to Hirani but the production house of Vidhu Vinod Chopra has yet to make a formal announcement of Aamir’s presence in the film.
Now, a birdie tells us that Hirani is considering signing Saif Ali Khan and John Abraham for the other two roles. And actress Kajol is on Hirani’s wishlist for the female lead in the movie.
It is possible that Aamir recommended Kajol to Hirani. After working with her in Fanaa , Aamir has flamboyantly declared Kajol his favourite co-star ever in films.
‘Idiots’ is still in scripting stages. A formal announcement of the movie’s cast can be expected in the coming weeks.
