The Singapore International Film Festival felt less like a festival and more like a press conference when the crowd heard Aamir Khan’s name echo through the hall. He dropped a hint that the 3 Idiots saga is picking up again, but the details are still under wraps.
Hirani, who has a knack for turning ordinary campus antics into national conversation, is reportedly penning a fresh script that jumps the timeline by 15-20 years. The trio—Raju, Farhan, and Rancho—would be navigating mid‑life crises, marriages, and the messy reality of parenthood, according to a prior interview with The Hollywood Reporter India.
The buzz didn’t stop there; Aamir also mentioned a project linked to the cult classic Andaz Apna Apna. The rumor mill is already spinning, with fans speculating a potential sequel that could reunite the original star cast.
While the star was being honored with the Screen Icon Award—making him the first Indian to snag that accolade—the real headline was the promise of a new chapter in the 3 Idiots universe.
As the festival lights dimmed, the question remains: when will the next chapter hit the silver screen? If the script is on track, we might see the trio again in late 2026.
