Aamir Khan's Mogul, a biopic of Gulshan Kumar, made headlines for various reasons. The actor's fans are excited to see him in the special role. But the actor quit the film last year after #MeToo accusations were made against its director Subhash Kapoor. He later revealed that he will be making a comeback with the same project as he felt that his actions have inadvertently caused guilt to a person.

As per the latest reports, Aamir Khan will be keeping Mogul on hold and join the Hindi remake of Tamil blockbuster film Vikram Vedha. This will happen once he wraps up the shoot of his upcoming film Laal Singh Chadda, which is an adaptation of Forrest Grump.
