With every passing day, the hype around Aamir Khan ’s Thugs Of Hindostan is just increasing by leaps and bounds. Based on Philip Meadows Taylor's 1839 fiction novel, Confessions of a Thug, the film is set between 1790 and 1805 and revolves around a thug called Ameer Ali, whose gang posed a serious challenge to the British Empire in India during the early 19th century. The protagonist Ameer Ali is portrayed by Aamir Khan.
Spilling some beans on the movie, Aamir reveals that his character in the film is totally different and cannot be trusted at all. In a media interaction, he said, “I’m playing a character who cannot be trusted at all – [so it’s the] very opposite of Dangal … He’s a very slippery character. He has no scruples at all – for money he can sell his mother out. He’s like that.”
He further said that unlike Dangal, TOH will have no social message, just pure entertainment. ''Thugs of Hindostan is a big action-adventure film. There’s no message in that.” He concluded saying, ''But [the character] is a very entertaining guy. So it’s a very entertaining kind of a film. No message this time. Just have a good time.''
Apart from Aamir, Vijay Krishna Acharya ’s directorial will also have Amitabh Bachchan , Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh .
Made under the banner of Yash Raj Films, the debut collaboration of Mr Perfectionist and Big B will hit the theatres on 07th November 2018.
