Reportedly, Shraddha did a look test for a role opposite Aamir a month ago.
The film is based on the popular novel ‘Confessions of a Thug’ by Philip Meadows Taylor which tells the story of thugs who robbed and murdered travellers for money and valuables in India during 1832.
‘Thugs of Hindostan’ will be directed by ‘Dhoom 3’ director Vijay Krishna Acharya and produced by Aditya Chopra.
The film also stars megastar Amitabh Bachchan, confirmed by Aamir earlier.
