Aamir Khan Eyes Murder Mystery Based On Shocking Meghalaya Honeymoon Case? Here's The Truth
Aamir Khan may be developing a film based on the Meghalaya Honeymoon Murder case. Here's what we know about his next potential true-crime thriller. Fresh off the success of Sitaare Zameen Par, Bollywood icon Aamir Khan may be setting his sights on a gripping new genre. If industry whispers are to be believed, the actor-producer is reportedly interested in developing a film based on the chilling Meghalaya Honeymoon Murder case that has captivated the nation. The case in question involves Sonam, the wife accused of murdering her husband Raja Raghuvanshi during their honeymoon — a story that has dominated headlines with its shocking twists and psychological complexity. According to a Times Now report, Khan has been 'closely following the updates on the Meghalaya Murder case" and is 'personally tracking and discussing the details with his close circle." The source further adds, 'There might be a development on the subject from his production too." While no official statement has been made by Khan or Aamir Khan Productions, the star's interest has certainly sparked speculation. Known for his discerning taste and commitment to socially relevant storytelling — evident in films like Taare Zameen Par and Dangal — Khan's curiosity in the high-profile case suggests a potential pivot into the psychological thriller or crime drama genre. Meanwhile, the actor continues to juggle multiple projects at his home banner, including early-stage development on a long-anticipated cinematic adaptation of the Mahabharata. Insiders claim that Khan has been 'relentlessly" exploring compelling narratives that blend drama, realism, and cultural intrigue. Should the Meghalaya murder case indeed become the basis of his next film, it would mark a stark departure from his recent emotional family dramas — offering audiences a darker, more suspenseful side of Aamir Khan. For now, fans and industry watchers await an official confirmation. One thing is clear — with Aamir Khan's involvement, any story is bound to be told with nuance, depth, and a strong cinematic voice.

Meghalaya honeymoon murder: Sonam Raghuvanshi's brother Govind's MAJOR claim — ‘I'm 100% sure she has…'
Meghalaya Honeymoon Murder: Sonam Raghuvanshi's brother Govind on Wednesday apologised to Raja Raghuvanshi's family and said that he has 'broken all ties' with his sister Sonam. Govind further added that he is '100% sure that she has committed this (Raja Raghuvanshi) murder'. Earlier today, police disclosed that Sonam Raghuvanshi, the prime conspirator in the murder of Raja Raghuvanshi, had insisted on proceeding with the killing despite others withdrawing their support. This determination reportedly played a crucial role in the tragic event. Authorities have since arrested Sonam's alleged boyfriend, Raj Kushwaha, along with three contract killers—Vishal Chauhan, Akash Rajput, and Anand Kurmi—in connection with the case. Sonam herself was taken into custody in Ghazipur, Uttar Pradesh, and is currently held at Shillong Sadar Police Station in Meghalaya. Sonam Raghuvanshi's brother Govind visited his sister's in-law's household on Wednesday. At the residence Govind and Raja Raghuvanshi's brother Vipin held a joint press conference. There Govind said, 'According to the evidence found so far, I am 100% sure that she has committed this murder. All the accused in this case are related to Raj Kushwaha. I apologise to Raja's family.' Govind also informed that their family had broken ties with murder accused Sonam Raghuvanshi. 'I don't have an idea if she (Sonam) has confessed to the crime, but I am saying that she has done it. I am with Raja... I will boycott Sonam.' Govind said. "Our parents have also accepted it. They were not aware of the details earlier today. I was in flight. Not only my family but the entire society will boycott her (Sonam). I have apologised to the (Raja's) family. I will always stand with them." he added. Earlier on June 6, Govind had sought a CBI probe into the missing Indore couple's case, and asked Meghalaya CM Conrad Sangma to treat it as a case of abduction, and not look for her dead body. Vipin Raghuvanshi, brother of Raja Raghuvanshi, revealed that Govind, Sonam Raghuvanshi's brother, had been in contact with him. He explained that Govind had informed him of his intention to visit his house to make a confession. Govind wanted to admit that his sister had committed a grave mistake and expressed that she deserved the death penalty for her actions. Raj Singh Kushwaha's mother has vehemently claimed that her son is being 'trapped' in the murder case and insisted that he 'could never do something like this.' The 21-year-old, who is alleged to be Sonam Raghuvanshi's boyfriend, was arrested by police for his purported involvement in conspiring to kill Raja Raghuvanshi in May. 'My son is not like that; he can never do something like this. He is very young and used to taking care of his three sisters after his father passed away. He started working at Govind's (brother of Sonam Raghuvanshi) office. My husband passed away in 2020. After that, Raj has taken care of our family,' Kushwaha's mother was quoted as saying by ANI. According to the Meghalaya Police, Indore businessman Raja Raghuvanshi's wife Sonam (25) was allegedly involved in the conspiracy to murder him with her alleged lover Raj Kushwaha (20). The duo had hired three killers to execute the plan. Raja Raghuvanshi (29) and his wife Sonam got married here on May 11. They went missing during their honeymoon in Meghalaya on May 23. Raghuvanshi's body was found in a deep gorge near a waterfall in Sohra area (also known as Cherrapunji) of East Khasi Hills district on June 2. Sonam and her aides were arrested from Indore in Madhya Pradesh and Ghazipur in Uttar Pradesh recently for their alleged role in conspiring and killing Raghuvanshi.
