The film is said to be an adaptation of the Spanish hit Campeones. Now, on his 57th birthday, the actor has confirmed the news and said that it's in the planning stage. 

The actor celebrated his birthday with members from the media this morning. When asked about his next being the Hindi remake of a Spanish film, Aamir said, "I haven't announced it yet, how do you know about it? The planning is going on, I will tell you about it very soon."

The film in question is an official adaptation of the 2018 Spanish classic, Campeones. It revolves around the journey of an arrogant and drunkard coach, who trains a team of intellectually disabled people. The team eventually goes on to win multiple championships across the globe. It's an inspirational underdog tale, with the metamorphizes of Aamir's character too, from being arrogant and disrespectful to becoming a sober man. 

On the work front, Aamir will be next seen in the Hindi adaptation of Forrest Gump titled Laal Singh Chaddha.
