Aamir Khan exits Ashneer Grover biopic

Aamir Khan has walked away from the Ashneer Grover biopic, citing creative differences with director Rahul Mody, prompting producers to reopen the lead casting to find a younger actor. Shraddha Kapoor remains attached as the female lead and is producing the film, with the project now seeking a replacement for Aamir in the lead role. Rahul Mody and Shraddha Kapoor are reportedly continuing to push the project forward, aiming to recast the part of Ashneer Grover as soon as possible. Earlier plans had pegged the film for a March 2027 shoot, but the ongoing casting changes have delayed those timelines. The biopic would chronicle Grover’s rise with BharatPe, his Shark Tank India exploits, and subsequent controversies, with the real-life couple at the helm of production and decision-making. Several reports suggest that the new casting search includes two to three top names, who are being considered to take on the lead role.
