As the release date of L2: Empuraan inches closer, excitement among cinephiles has reached new heights. The upcoming Malayalam blockbuster has been making waves, not just for its star-studded cast and gripping storyline, but also for a mysterious character teased in the film’s promotional materials. Now, fans are buzzing with the latest theory—could Bollywood’s perfectionist, Aamir Khan, be making a special appearance?
A Mystery Character Sparks Speculation
The speculation started when keen-eyed fans noticed a shadowy figure dressed in a black suit in the film’s posters and trailer. Initially, the general belief was that acclaimed actor Fahadh Faasil was the secret addition to the film’s ensemble. However, fresh buzz suggests that the man behind the enigmatic persona could be none other than Aamir Khan himself.
Adding fuel to the fire, fans have begun drawing parallels between the mysterious L2: Empuraan character and Aamir Khan’s iconic look in Dhoom 3. The comparisons don’t seem far-fetched, as both characters sport similar attire and an air of mystique. If this speculation turns out to be true, Aamir’s inclusion in L2: Empuraan would mark a sensational crossover between Bollywood and Malayalam cinema.
A Family Connection to the Film
What makes the rumor even more intriguing is Aamir Khan’s indirect connection to L2: Empuraan through his sister, Nikhat Khan Hegde. Nikhat plays a pivotal role in the film, leading many to believe that Aamir might have been roped in for a special cameo or even a significant role.
Director and actor Prithviraj Sukumaran, who is helming the much-anticipated film, recently revealed an interesting backstory about casting Nikhat. During a press interaction, he admitted that he had no idea she was Aamir Khan’s sister when he selected her for the role. “I liked her audition and said I wanted her in the film. Later, my casting director told me she is Aamir sir’s sister. I was surprised and even messaged Aamir sir, who later asked me, ‘Is my sister good in the film?’” Prithviraj recalled. This revelation has further heightened expectations that Aamir might be involved in the project in some capacity.
The Big Reveal on March 27
While there has been no official confirmation from the filmmakers or Aamir Khan himself, the speculation surrounding his involvement continues to build. If true, his presence in L2: Empuraan would undoubtedly be one of the biggest surprises of the year.
Fans will have to wait until March 27, when the film finally hits theaters, to find out if Aamir Khan is indeed the man in the black suit. With the film slated for release during the extended Eid weekend, it promises to be a massive box-office spectacle that could bridge the gap between Bollywood and South Indian cinema in an unprecedented way.
Until then, the mystery remains unsolved, keeping fans eagerly waiting for the big-screen revelation.
