Aamir Khan Not Approached for Roles in Dhurandhar 2, Claims Debunked

Dhurandhar 2 has been making headlines ever since its theatrical release on March 19, 2026. Amid various casting rumors, one claim suggested that Aamir Khan was offered the role of Ajay Sanyal in the film. However, reports that casting director Mukesh Chhabra approached Aamir have now been debunked. A source close to the actor told Instant Bollywood, "The news of Aamir Khan being approached for Ajit Doval’s character in Dhurandhar or Aamir reaching out to casting director Mukesh Chhabra is absolutely untrue and baseless." The source added that no such discussion ever took place between Aamir and Aditya Dhar's team or the casting director. A post shared by @PaaniFoundation (@paanifoundation) The clarification comes after widespread speculation about Aamir being offered several roles in Dhurandhar 2. According to claims on a Reddit thread, Aamir was supposedly offered a role in the film but proposed an alternative idea: doing a biopic on Ajit Doval. When he reportedly suggested this to Aditya Dhar, the director chose to prioritize Dhurandhar 2 rather than pursue the biopic. A post shared by Jio Studios (@officialjiostudios) Rumors also claimed that Aamir showed interest in Rehman Dakait's character, but wanted the role to be toned down politically. Aditya Dhar reportedly did not agree to the proposed changes, and as a result, Aamir never joined the project. These speculations, however, have now been confirmed as baseless, with sources revealing that no such discussions or proposals ever occurred.
