With the news of Karan Deol joining his father, it was revealed that he had auditioned for a crucial character in Lahore 1947. He will be portraying the role of Javed in the film.

In his statement, Aamir Khan said, “I am so happy that Karan Deol has tested so well for the extremely critical role of Javed. His natural innocence, his sincerity, and his honesty bring a lot to the table. Karan has really applied himself, worked hard, done workshops with ADISHAKTI, rehearsals with Raj, and is giving it his all. Javed is a great part, a very challenging part, and I am sure that with Raj Santoshi to direct him, Karan will nail it.”

Director Rajkumar Santoshi recently said that Lahore 1947 is very special to him. It is a reunion as he has worked with Aamir Khan in Andaz Apna Apna in the past. The same applies to Sunny Deol, with whom Santoshi has made memorable films like Ghayal, Damini, and Ghatak.

Also, he shared his admiration for A R Rahman, who will be a part of the project too. He further added, “Javed Akhtar and I share a very good bond with each other for many years, having him for this project as a lyricist is a delight. This is truly the best dream team and rare to come together. With all the positivity and full of energy, we will commence the shoot for the film very soon.”

Lahore 1947 is expected to be released around Republic Day 2025. Stay tuned for more updates on the movie.
