Making a cameo  for my cub

Upala KBR (MID-DAY; May 13, 2022)

Laal Singh Chaddha may be his all-important project right now, but you can count on Aamir Khan to be just as involved in his other productions. In early May, he flew out to Rajasthan to shoot a cameo for his production, Pritam Pyare, which is led by actor-son Junaid Khan. The web series rolled in Lucknow, followed by a schedule in the Jhunjhunu district in the desert state.

Word is that the project is being helmed by one of the superstar’s associates from Aamir Khan Productions. “Aamir joined Junaid and the team in Rajasthan on May 1. He shot for a song, and some hospital scenes in Bagar over the week. Aamir, Junaid and co-actor Sanjay Mishra filmed their portions near the heritage property, Grand Haveli and Resort, located in old Nawalgarh. Some scenes were also canned around the Koolwal Kothi hotel in the city,” reveals a source.

It is heard that the superstar’s cameo influences the narrative of the quirky, small-town drama. Besides the web series, Junaid has Maharaja in his kitty, which marks his Bollywood debut.
