Coonoor may have its charms, but ten years later director Mansoor Khan is willing to take a break from the laid back hill station. At a private party recently, Aamir Khan was overheard saying that Mansoor will make his comeback in Bollywood with a remake of the 1973 classic Yaadon Ki Baaraat. The film will star Aamir Khan and Imran Khan in the lead roles.
Mansoor Khan had last directed the SRK-Aishwarya Rai and Priya Gill starrer Josh. After that, he quit Bollywood. It’s no surprise that he is returning to Bollywood with Aamir Khan as his star. After all, both had made their debut together with Qayamat se Qayamat Tak in 1987.
Our source said, “It is a known fact that Aamir won’t be shooting any film this year. But no one is aware that he will start working on the script of Yaadon Ki Baaraat , which will mark the comeback of Mansoor Khan. Mansoor and Aamir Khan made their joint debuts with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak in 1987. After that Mansoor made Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander, Akele Hum Akele Tum and Josh before he settled down in Coonoor.
He had no intention of returning to Bollywood until Imran Khan was about to debut with Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na . Mansoor came back to Mumbai to take care of the film’s production. The director has time and again denied any news of his comeback. However, Aamir wanted him to direct a film again. After Aamir Khan finishes three films as a producer, they will start working on the remake.”
However, when asked about the film, Aamir Khan denied the plans.
