Like father like son. Finally Aamir Khan’s son Junaid Khan is making his acting debut in Bollywood with the film ‘Maharaja’. The film goes on floors today and is based on the infamous Maharaj Libel case. Maharaj’s devotees and the head of a religious section had sued a prominent newspaper for exposing the sexual exploitation by him on female devotees in 1862. The film is being shot currently in Mumbai, where a grand set has been created in Vijay Nagar, Marol. 

 

Maharaja is directed by Siddharth P Malhotra and produced by Yash Raj Films. Junaid will be playing the role of journalist Karsandas Mulji in the film. The film also stars Arjun Reddy actress Shalini Pandey, Sharvari Wagh, and Jaideep Ahlawat in crucial roles.
