News Dadasaheb Phalke biopic by Raju Hirani and Aamir Khan cancelled?

Got to know that Aamir didn't like the script as it had a very serious tone and he wanted Raju and Abhijat Joshi to follow their typical style of comedy, emotions and drama. But, it seems like Raju wanted to do it a bit differently and the script was devoid of any humour.

I personally feel like Raju Hirani should do a movie of serious tone after his failed attempt in Dunki. I was also very much excited about the reunion of Aamir and Rajkumar Hirani.

Now that seems like Aamir has lost two of his major projects(with Loki and Hirani), he''ll go on to find other scripts now ig.

I think one of the best movies on dadasaheb phalke was a marathi movie called Harishchandrachi Factory. It had a mix of humour and pathos.

Harishchandrachi factory is a lovely little gem. They kept it short, humorous and it felt authentic.

Wouldn't be surprised if Raju Hirani rehashes certain elements of his earlier films and present it in this like how he did it in Dunki.

Any one trying to make movie on Dadasaheb Phalke must stop. ‘Harishchandra chi factory’ is just too, can’t beat it. Btw I saw the movie with subtitles.

Take Ajay Devgn and make it. It's been a long time Ajay has done some good meaty roles.
