We had revealed that Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan will share screen space for the very first time in YRF flick ‘Thugs Of Hindostan’ (earlier titled ‘Thug’) and the Perfectionist revealed the release date and other details of the film on his Twitter page today!

Taking to his Twitter page, Aamir wrote, “Finally, the moment I have been waiting for has come… to work with my icon, Mr. Bachchan! Thanks Adi, Victor for ‘Thugs Of Hindostan’. I am too thrilled to be working with the actor I have admired all my life. Shoot starts early next year and the release has been locked for Diwali 2018. Can’t wait to get started! Fingers crossed.”

‘Thugs Of Hindostan’ was earlier stated to star Hrithik Roshan, who walked out of the project following creative differences, paving the way for Aamir Khan to take up the role.
