Ever since Aamir Khan saw Munnabhai MBBS he had been keen on working with Rajkumar Hirani. And now his dream has been fulfilled with the forthcoming 3 Idiots. But not many people know that Hirani had planned another venture keeping Aamir in mind.Immediately after Munnabhai MMBS, Aamir asked Hirani to pen something for him.Hirani came up with the idea of making a film on Mahatma Gandhi.
The director wanted Aamir to play a freedom fighter who wakes up from a coma and hallucinates about the Mahatma.But it seems Hirani found the subject too preachy and wrote an alternate idea of replacing the freedom fighter with Munna and Circuit.When Hirani narrated both the ideas to Aamir, the actor himself felt that Lage Raho Munnabhai was a better idea.
And voluntarily opted out. In a strange way Hirani managed to reject Aamir without even offending him. But who knows, had Aamir persisted with Hirani’s other plot we might have seen an all-together different spin on Gandhigiri.
