“We Have Some Ideas”: AR Murugadoss on Ghajini 2
The original Ghajini, a Tamil film starring Suriya in 2005, was remade in Hindi in 2008 with Aamir Khan in the lead, becoming a landmark film as the first Bollywood movie to cross the Rs 100 crores mark at the box office. Recent reports have suggested that Ghajini 2 will be a bilingual project, shot simultaneously in Tamil and Hindi, with Suriya and Aamir Khan reprising their roles respectively.
When Bollywood Hungama asked Murugadoss if he was in the loop regarding these developments, the director shared, “We have some ideas. Right now, we all are busy with our respective projects. Once we get time, we will sit and discuss.”

The conversation also touched upon Murugadoss’ interactions with Aamir Khan after the Ghajini 2 speculations began circulating online. Revealing details of their recent meeting, Murugadoss said, “When I came to Mumbai first, I met him before I started the shoot of Sikandar. I met him on the sets of Sitaare Zameen Par and we discussed something. After that, we often spoke over the call.”
This revelation has fueled fans’ hopes, as it indicates that the director and Aamir Khan have been in touch, possibly laying the groundwork for the sequel. However, Murugadoss didn’t divulge specifics of their discussion. For now, Murugadoss’ words offer a glimmer of hope that the iconic Ghajini franchise may soon return to the big screen, bringing back the magic of Aamir Khan and Suriya under his direction.

Adding to the nostalgia, Ghajini is among several Aamir Khan films being re-released to honor the actor’s contribution to Indian cinema. When asked about this trend, Murugadoss noted, “Now the re-release trend has started. So all the old hit films are released on the hero’s birthday or on holidays.”
What’s Next for AR Murugadoss?
While Ghajini 2 remains a topic of intrigue, Murugadoss is currently focused on the release of Sikandar, his first collaboration with Salman Khan, set to hit theatres on March 30, 2025.
