Over the years, we have seen a series of celebrity kids making their way into films. While some succeeded and even overshadowed the image of their mothers and forefathers, not every product of nepotism managed to succeed in the film industry. As per the latest reports, one of the biggest actors ever, Aamir Khan’s son, Junaid Khan, from his first wife, Reena Dutt, has already bagged his second film, even before the release of his debut film. For the unversed, Aamir’s son, Junaid is all set to make his acting debut with the period-drama film, Maharaja, in which he will be seen opposite Bunty Aur Babli 2 fame, Sharvari Wagh.
Coming back to the reports suggesting that Aamir Khan’s son, Junaid Khan will be seen romancing late iconic actress, Sridevi’s younger daughter, Khushi Kapoor. If the reports are to be believed, the makers have cast Junaid and Khushi for the Hindi remake of the hit Tamil film, Love Again. The film is going to be reportedly produced by Phantom Films. However, no confirmation has been given so far from Junaid and Khushi about their casting in Love Again’s Hindi remake as of now. For the unversed, Love Again was one of the biggest hits of 2022 and is hailed by many as the ‘Best Tamil romcom of 2022’.

While Junaid Khan is going to make his acting debut with Maharaja, Khushi Kapoor will also be introducing herself to the industry with the film, The Archies. The film is directed by Zoya Akhtar and is the Indian adaptation of the iconic comic series of the same name. In the film, Khushi will be seen alongside a stellar star cast that will also mark the debut of Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter, Suhana Khan. Apart from Suhana, the film will also mark the acting debut of Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson, Agastya Nanda. It is no doubt that in recent years, so many celebrity kids are going to lead the spotlight with their debuts in Bollywood.
Once in a heart-to-heart conversation with the Hindustan Times, Aamir Khan opened up about his son, Junaid Khan’s acting debut in Bollywood. However, before sharing his thoughts, Aamir clarified that his son is just following his passion and denied the speculations and misconceptions that Junaid is coming into films because of his family’s lineage in the film industry. The doting father admitted that Junaid is quite passionate about films, and he had never asked him to guide him when it came to acting.

Aamir Khan also shared that his son had been a part of a theatre group, where he had enhanced his acting skills. He also added how he was super-happy to see his son following his passion, Aamir Khan admitted that he always told Junaid to follow his heart. In the same interview, Aamir Khan also shared his views about his daughter, Ira Khan and admitted that just like his son, Ira also never asks for his help when it comes to acting. The 3 Idiots actor proudly admitted that he has never forced his kids to fall in love with cinema and he was glad luckily it happened. He said:
"I have no idea what they’ve taken from me; that you’ve to ask them. But what I can say is that they’re doing things entirely on their own, which is good because I think that’s how it should be. Ira had told me (about the play), but she had not asked me for any help, nor did she say, ‘Dad, please guide me’. Junaid is acting in theatre and he’s also on his own. So, both are doing what they feel like doing."
Well, we are pretty excited about the rumours of seeing Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor opposite each other in a rom-com. What about you? Let us know.
