Surprise, excitement, scepticism, and what not! Fans had varied reactions when Aamir Khan, famous for his one-film-a-year approach, announced last week that he would shoot three movies in succession. Sure enough, the superstar’s date diary is full — he is expected to kick off the shoot of Rajkumar Hirani’s sequel to 3 Idiots (2009) in November, followed by the Dadasaheb Phalke biopic next year, and finally Mansoor Khan’s screen adaptation of his book, One: The Story of the Ultimate Myth. For now, the adaptation has Aamir’s undivided attention. Sources have told mid-day that the actor will soon begin developing the screenplay of One with his cousin and filmmaker Mansoor.
