Two industry legends, Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan, will be sharing screen screen-space in Yash Raj Films’ upcoming action film ‘Thug’. While there have been plenty of rumours surrounding the Vijay Krishna Acharya directed film, Bachchan has confirmed for the very first time that he will indeed be seen with Aamir in the film.
“I don’t know if I can talk about the film at this moment. I haven’t been given permission. All I can say is that it is a very exciting subject”
“It’s a great honour and privilege to be working with Aamir, to be working with Yash Raj again and also to work with Victor (Vijay Krishna Acharya), I just look forward to that moment” Bachchan said.
‘Thug’ was first offered to Hrithik Roshan who decided not to do the film as the script did not convince him. The script is said to have been re-written after which it was offered to Aamir, who green-lighted the project quicker than he usually does.
In the last few years, Aamir has been smart with his film choices. He does films like Talaash, PK, Dangal and mixes it up with commercially safer films like Dhoom 3 and Thug.
Industry insiders say, YRF is targeting ‘Thug’ for the Christmas 2017 weekend.
Amir has better script sense than any other actor in Bollywood.HR does movie like kites,MJ and BB so we cant trust more on HR compare to Amir.HR trying to copy amir he try to do 1 movie in 1.5 to 2 years like amir.Audience trust amir blindly unlike HR.HR have to work hard if he do movie like bang bang and MJ he never be amir khan.
Bad luck for Hrithik it should have been a ATBB for sure..
YRF is targeting every year one big
Acting wise Mohbatein was best in Bollywood History.SRK and Big B dileverd best performance.Thug look like more like Dhoom series so i dont thing there will be more acting scope to compare other off beat movies.
Great news..Two legends in 1 movie will be a great treat
Hope this movie releases in Christmas 2017
I always knew the day Aamir started doing movies regularly, ye bhatoore jaisi shakal wala Salman won’t stand anywhere near Aamir in stardom or Box office. Even in his best phase he isn’t able to cross lifetime of Aamir movies for 9 consecutive year now.
People only consider Salman above Aamir bcoz AK does less movies while Bhatoora keeps signing movies with Kabir Khan and his rickshawchaap fans aggressively abuse everyone on social media to prove their unprovable point.
Indicine, you said Aamir will go above Bhatoora if he keeps doing movies regularly and maintains box office collections.
Let’s see if you accept it after Thug.
The film will get superb buzz due to Big B name is there now…
But, The work of CAMERMAN will be so tough for now, He will have to adjust his camera again n again n again n again n again…
4 feet and 6 feet, LOL…
When ALR drawf film moved to xmas 2017 i was sure Thug come in xmas 17 and Tiger 2 eid 2018 srk-adi next Diwali 2018

Whenever some1 says ” very exciting subject”’ I remember Veer, Raone, Bombay Velvet.
I dunt know why but this one looks like a upset because of its budget . Mega budgeted movie in a clash with content rich Padmavati and that too directed by SLB.
Those are trolling Raees just remember one think srk v/s yrf or srk-dharma never happen if sultan was produced by Eros then Raees never moved. No one dare to clash with ALR Drawf film which spposed to be costliest film of 2018 still i hope salman rajkumer santoshi film come n destroyed by srk
Don’t know why hrithik rejected this movie it was the best selling novel of some parti ular year “the confession of a thug” so the script will be awesome and aamir is almost the guarantee of quality but i personally think hrithik can take this role to another level it will be a dhoom like movie with a lot of stunts and noone can match the style and coolness of hrithik when it co.es to these types of role (d2 ,bang bang)
But aamir too will do an awesome work i can trust aamir
It will be guaranteed hgoty of 2017 ….
OHHH!!
Thats why SRK booked Christmas 2018.
2017 will be a great year of bollywood ……but 2016 is a big dissapointment as 2 big movies fail & another clash is coming on diwali
That’s why the King has smartly moved away to 2018 XMas instead of 2017 XMas. He just took pre-emptive measures from being called bhagoda once again.
#Prevention is better than cure!
It could easily cross 250 Crores. But without Raj Kumar Hirani, it will be difficult to attain the cult status that 3Is and PK have achieved.
Raj Kumar Hirani and Neeraj Pandey are the best directors in Bollywood at the moment.
All the best!
But let’s see how Dangal turns out first. But then, Nitesh is only a good director with just Chillar Party to his credit. Fear he doesn’t it into a Mangal.
Just wish he makes a commercial film at the same time.
Now, director SLB will clash with Aamir Khan’s film. I think he holds grudges against since Aamir bashed Devdas and Black.
well aamir agreeing quickly doesnt mean questions should be raised on the script….
Aamir has the best script sense and would be even more spot on working Big B…
Cant wait for this one……also remember that the new tax structure comes in place next year………expect many many new records!!!
Amir will require to stand on chair to talk with Junior bachhan..if Deepika Also sign the film then what will happen dont know..how funny it will look
also dont know if Thug would be as commercial as Dhoom…..
its probably based on the novel…..Confessions of a Thug!
Two best Actors of Industry
Aamir-Amitabh
Thug Story Based on
‘Confessions of a Thug’ Book
Victor Claimed
movie will have some NEVER SEEN BEFORE VFX work and
Few fans are saying VICTOR is avg director
You are doubting AAMIR KHAN???
He has the best script sense in our INDUSTRY,so
Calm down guys
OH my god. If it happens my dream gonna comes true. My top most favorite Aamir and Big B sharing screen space. Aamir once again coming back to commercial film.The guy who created 100cr club domestic with Ghajini, and 500cr ww with D3 is coming to shatter all records for 2017. Next year with GST the target is to collect around 450cr at domestic.
I loved Aamir performance in D3, if D3 wasn’t a franchise film and if it was first of its kind the majority may liked that film as the biggest drawback of d3 was including long emotional angle and exclusion of actual robbery scenes. Action was outstanding. I think Christmas 2017 will be the date they are looking for.
dont understand why people are bashing SRK though with news of Thug or Tiger ZInda Hai news coming….so silly
SRK will bounce back next year…..his line up is as interesting as anyone else’s
There was an user with ID “Thug vs Dangal” simce Aamir intolerance comment who dream that Hrithik will clash with Aamir on Christmas 2016. I was never interested in the movie called thug until rumors came that Aamir signing that film. I don’t know how he is thinking now that the movie which was supposed to clash with Dangal is signed by the genius himself.
Can’t wait to see Aamir & Big B in thug.
Interesting part of
Philip Meadows Taylors
‘Confession of Thug’ is
Novel was the best seller of 19th Century.
Because it delieverd the Tension,Adventure & Thrills
At any cost Thug will face Clash.
2017 Christmas : Padmavati ( SLB)
2018 Christmas : Anand L Rai’s next with SRK
Both SLB and Rai are critically acclaimed director known for making content rich movie. Bad luck for Aamir.
Will be a upset because of its budget
Vijay is worse director ever
History has already been made, Two legends of Indian cinema for the first time together,just can’t wait. Fingers crossed
Why are you giving special treat for this film. You should wait for official confirmation.
Even TIGER ZINDA HAI is confirmed by KABIR and Sultan Director but you don’t make a article on this film.
Hrithik Roshan in FIGHTER no article on FIGHTER
Because Your are waiting for official confirmation for TIGER THA TIGER and FIGHTER
