This #MeToo campaign has really become a turning point for the film industry and it has made many changes to the upcoming Bollywood projects. It became big when Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan stepped down as the producer of Gulshan Kumar's biopic Mogul after the sexual harassment charges on director Subhash Kapoor.

While making an exit from the film, Aamir Khan said in a statement, "At Aamir Khan Productions we have always had a zero-tolerance policy towards sexual misconduct and predatory behaviour of any kind... Two weeks ago, when traumatic #MeToo stories began emerging, it was brought to our attention that someone we were about to begin work with has been accused of sexual misconduct. Without casting any aspersions on anyone involved in this case, and without coming to any conclusions about these specific allegations, we have decided to step away from this film."

 

After this T Series released a statement regarding Subhash Kapoor's exit, "It is our foremost duty to make our industry safe for everyone, make an industry that creates environment of equality and a better place to work. With the on-going proceedings against the director that have been brought to our notice, everyone at T-Series has decided to not work with the director."

However, now according to the latest development, Aamir Khan is back on board as after Subhash Kapoor's exit. "The script is close to Aamir and he wants to make the film. Bhushan and he have had a number of meetings since and decided to collaborate on Mogul again. The hunt is on for another director. They are also looking at finalising the cast so they can roll with the film, asap," a source told India Today.

On the professional front, Aamir Khan is currently busy in the promotions of his upcoming movie Thugs Of Hindostan that also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh. The film is supposed to release on 8th November 2018.
