Shah Rukh Khan gives tribute to Shashi Kapoor in Zero announcement video
As he had promised, Shah Rukh Khan finally released the first look of his next, directed by Aanand L. Rai, on New Years. The ambitious project, that will see SRK play a dwarf, is titled Zero, and co-stars Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma.
The movie’s teaser also turned out to be a bit of a tribute to the late Shashi Kapoor, who passed away recently. Shah Rukh, in his dwarf avatar, walks into a party in the teaser. Dancing to Humko Tumpe Pyaar Aaya from Shashi’s Jab Jab Phool Khile.
His avatar sees VFX playing an important role in not just determining his truncated height, but also three costume changes within the song.
The teaser ends with SRK’s voice echoing, “Hum jiske peeche padh jaate hain, uski life banaate hain.” Surely, the movie promises to be interesting, as the teaser gives a sneak peek into SRK’s experiment on screen.
