New Delhi: Aamir Khan, who is on a sabbatical after his last release ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’, will make a comeback into acting with a yet-untitled film, which will release on Christmas 2024 and will be clashing with Akshay Kumar’s ‘Welcome 3’.
Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to X, formerly called Twitter where he announced the film. He even shared that the pre-production of the film is ongoing and it goes on floors on 20 January 2024.
“#Xclusiv… AAMIR KHAN LOCKS CHRISTMAS 2024 FOR NEXT FILM… Aamir Khan Productions’ Prod No. 16 [not titled yet], starring #AamirKhan in the lead role, to release on 20 Dec 2024 #Christmas2024.

Aamir’s last outing ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ was a flop at the box office, and he had taken a break after its release. During the trailer launch of the Punjabi film ‘Carry On Jatta 3’, Aamir was asked about his future projects, to which he had replied, “I haven't decided to do any film as of now. I want to spend time with my family right now. I'm feeling good about it because that's what I want to do right now. I'll do a film when I'm emotionally ready, for sure."
Recently, Aamir hosted a reunion of the cast and crew of ‘Laal Sigh Chaddha’ after the film completed one year. At the reunion, Aamir surprised everyone by performing a few songs on stage. In the videos doing the rounds on the internet, Aamir can be seen singing ‘Tere Hawaale,’ with singers Shilpa Rao and Amitabh Bhattacharya in the first clip, and again in the second clip, ‘Kahani,’ with Amitabh.
Akshay’s ‘Welcome 3’, which will clash with Aamir's yet untitled film, is reportedly titled as ‘Welcome To The Jungle’. It will reportedly star Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi, Suniel Shetty, Disha Patani, and Jacqueline Fernandez. It will also have Raveena Tandon.
