- Aamir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani's Dadasaheb Phalke biopic put on hold
- Duo not satisfied with script, found it "too dry" for today's audience

Just last year, Bollywood heavyweights Aamir Khan and Rajkumar Hirani had announced their reunion for a third time to make a biopic on the legendary Dadasaheb Phalke. However, in a surprising turn of events, the duo have now decided to put the project on hold.
According to reliable sources, Aamir and Hirani were not satisfied with the script of the Dadasaheb Phalke biopic. They felt the script was "too dry" for the audience in today's world and lacked the humor that is expected from their collaborations. After multiple rewrite sessions, the two have collectively decided to pause the project until they can develop a script that is both emotionally stirring and universally engaging.
Aamir is currently reading through over 20 scripts, trying to lock his next project. Hirani too has started the process of identifying his next subject and will soon begin the writing process. While the Phalke biopic is on hold, the two industry giants are certain to reunite on another project in the future.
