The source also revealed that Aamir Khan and Suriya are mostly in agreement with the plan for a simultaneous release of Ghajini 2, but they are waiting for the final scripts before committing.

"Creating a sequel to a cult classic like Ghajini carries a lot of responsibility, as the first film was a milestone in both actors' careers. Their main concern is to ensure the sequel feels natural and isn’t driven solely by profit. While they like the idea, they are waiting for narrations at different stages of development. The script is still being worked on, and more details should be available by mid-2025," the report added.
