Aamir Khan to play the lead in ‘Sarfarosh’ sequel

Remember the action packed Aamir Khan starrer blockbuster ‘Sarfarosh’? The film that bagged oodles of moolah and reaffirmed Aamir’s superstar stature at the Box Office will soon be followed by a sequel. Believe it or not but years after ‘Sarfarosh’ went to become a nationwide hit, director John Mathan is set to work on its second part with none other than Aamir Khan.

Keen on making the sequel, the director is presently occupied with the script of the sequel. According to sources, John will meet Aamir Khan to discuss the project but only after he has the final script in hand. Considering the actor’s love for perfection, John doesn’t want Aamir to reject the project over trivial issues.

Confirming the news, John told a news daily, “Hopefully, the script should be ready soon. Only after I complete it and provided I like it, I will talk to Aamir.”

However even though John is convinced that no actor except Aamir will suit his film, he has yet not decided about the lead actress. As for the theme of the movie, the storyline will be based around national security. “The villain in ‘Sarfarosh’, played by Naseeruddin Shah, was not an Indian. In the sequel, John wants to dwell upon the enemy within”, a source said.
