Yes, Rakesh Sharma biopic was one of the scripts I read. I was approached for the film when Aamir was a part of it. We weren't supposed to do it next year, it was for 2019. But as of now, I don't know anything else about the movie," noted the 'Bajirao Mastani' star. When specifically asked if Aamir had quit the film, Priyanka replied, "Aamir is not doing the film now."
