Besides Aamir, the film also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Shashank Arora and others. Speaking to South China Morning Post, Aamir said, “Thugs of Hindostan is a big action-adventure film. There’s no message in that.”
He added, “I’m playing a character who cannot be trusted at all – [so it’s the] very opposite of Dangal … He’s a very slippery character. He has no scruples at all – for money he can sell his mother out. He’s like that.” In Thugs of Hindostan, Aamir Khan will be seen sporting a nose-ring for the first time. Earlier leaked pictures from the sets of TOH also vouch for Aamir’s description of the character. “But [the character] is a very entertaining guy. So it’s a very entertaining kind of a film. No message this time. Just have a good time.”
Produced by Yash Raj Films, Thugs of Hindostan is the biggest budget film to be made under the banner. Vijay Krishna Acharya had previously directed Aamir Khan and Katrina Kaif in Dhoom 3.
