In
the
era
of
a
global
pandemic,
OTT
platforms
have
come
to
the
fore
and
taken
the
place
of
traditional
entertainment
platforms
such
as
theatres,
at
least
for
the
time
being.
Netflix
is
one
such
OTT
platform
which
is
making
headway
in
this
context,
not
only
producing
incredible
content,
but
also
purchasing
movies
for
streaming
such
as
Gunjan
Saxena:
The
Kargil
Girl.
According
to
the
latest
report,
Netflix
is
also
signing
a
huge
deal
with
Bollywood's
Mr.
Perfectionist,
Aamir
Khan.
Peeping
Moon
reported
that
Netflix
and
Aamir
have
been
in
discussion
for
the
last
six
months
to
sign
a
multi-year
deal
which
includes
a
film
and
three
web
series,
under
his
production
house,
Aamir
Khan
Productions.
The
report
further
stated
that
although
the
deal
hasn't
been
sealed
yet,
the
two
parties
have
been
getting
closer
to
doing
so,
in
the
discussions
that
they
have
been
holding.
However,
it
is
still
not
clear
as
to
which
projects
Aamir
will
be
collaborating
with
the
digital
platform
for.
Rumour
has
it
that
it
could
be
Aamir's
Mahabharata
project,
which
the
actor
put
on
hold
due
to
Laal
Singh
Chadha.
Netflix
has
already
partnered
with
Karan
Johar
and
Viacom18
Studio's
digital
divisions,
Dharmatic
Entertainment
and
Tipping
Point.
If
the
deal
with
Aamir
Khan
goes
through,
it
could
be
the
biggest
of
them
all.
Meanwhile,
Aamir
will
next
be
seen
in
Laal
Singh
Chadha,
a
Hindi
remake
of
the
Hollywood
film,
Forrest
Gump.
The
film
also
stars
Kareena
Kapoor
Khan.
Directed
by
Advait
Chandan,
the
film
is
currently
scheduled
for
release
on
Christmas,
this
year.
