Sources: Aamir Khan to produce Imran Khan’s Netflix rom-com

After a nearly decade-long hiatus, Imran Khan will grace the screen again. Khan has been searching for the perfect project to mark his return, and it seems he's found it in a light-hearted romantic comedy for Netflix.

Khan will collaborate with his uncle, Aamir Khan, for this comeback project.

Under the leadership of its newly appointed CEO Aparna Purohit, Aamir Khan Productions will produce the film.

Interestingly, this marks the production company's first foray into the OTT platform and the first project greenlit under Purohit's leadership.

According to a report, the untitled rom-com will be helmed by Danish Aslam, who previously directed Khan and Deepika Padukone in the 2010 comedy Break Ke Baad.

Aamir Khan, who launched his nephew's acting career in the 1988 film Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak and later as the lead in the 2008 rom-com Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na, will once again be instrumental in his return. Their collaboration further strengthened with the critically acclaimed black comedy Delhi Belly in 2011.
