Aamir Khan is pulling out all the stops to promote his son Junaid Khan’s big-screen debut in Loveyapa, making his presence felt at the film’s events despite not being directly involved in its production. Directed by his favourite filmmaker, Advait Chandan, Loveyapa is a remake of the Tamil hit Love Today. While Aamir’s influence on the project has been evident off-screen, it now appears he will also make an on-screen impact. According to the director, the Bollywood superstar is set to make a cameo in the romantic comedy, which also stars Khushi Kapoor. Aamir Khan Hosts ‘Loveyapa’ Screening!

In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Advait Chandan confirmed Aamir Khan’s appearance, stating, "He does. He’s there for two shots. When you watch the film, you’ll definitely see him." This raises curiosity: what exactly does the director mean by "you’ll definitely see him"?
Will Aamir’s cameo be a background shot with no dialogue, or will he share the screen with his son? Based on the limited details available, it seems his appearance may be subtle rather than a showy guest role. Loveyapa is scheduled to hit theatres on February 7, 2025.
