Khushi
Kapoor
and
Junaid
Khan
in
Loveyapa.
If
all
goes
well,
Mansoor
Khan,
who
quit
filmmaking
25
years
ago
to
move
to
Coonoor,
is
being
teased
out
of
retirement
to
direct
his
nephew
Junaid
whose
father
Aamir
Khan
will
produce
the
film.
The
project
will
follow
Junaid’s
big
screen
debut
in
Madhu
Mantena’s
Valentine’s
Day
release
Loveyapa.
“Aamir
wanted
Junaid
to
make
his
debut
with
a
home
production
to
be
directed
by
Mansoor.
When
Aamir
suggested
the
idea
to
Mansoor,
he
agreed.
But
Junaid
wanted
to
make
his
debut
with
a
film
outside
the
safety
net
of
a
home
production,”
a
source
tells
Subhash
K
Jha.
So
Junaid
starred
in
Netflix’s
2024
film,
Maharaj,
followed
by
Loveyapa
on
the
big
screen,
co-starring
Khushi
Kapoor.
Mansoor
has
the
script
ready
for
Junaid
and
the
film
will
go
on
the
floors
mid-2025.
Details
are
not
available
but
Mansoor
says
it
would
be
something
far
removed
from
what
he
has
done
so
far.
Let’s
wait
and
see.
