Shah Rukh Khan’s lips are sealed
Shah Rukh Khan is on a roll, despite the miserable numbers of his last film Zero. Following the December 2018 release, King Khan also gave voice for Mufasa in the Hindi version of The Lion King, which managed to gross over Rs 100 crore in India.
After Zero, Khan has been keeping mum on what he wants to sign, but rumour has it that he is considering six different projects at the moment.
Apparently, the latest to approach the actor is Shankar, who pitched him an underwater sci-fi film that was previously offered to Hrithik Roshan. SRK had earlier spoken to Shankar about working in his film Robot, but then he didn’t want to do it after realising that he would need to shoot every 10 days, watch the result, and then shoot again. Khan didn’t think he had that much time and patience. While SRK has not announced any project starring himself, he has been working on other things.
“Shah Rukh has taken rights of a Spanish web series named Money Heist, and he may ask Sriram Raghavan to direct it as a film. Then there is a Rajkumar Hirani film, which he is said to be collaborating and co-producing. Another project in the offing, which he may co-produce, is a film with Sanjay Leela Bhansali called Izhaar. When he met up with Tamil filmmaker Atlee in Chennai during a CSK vs KKR cricket match, it was rumoured that he may star in a Vijay film in a cameo. There is another rumour that he may also do a quid pro quo for R. Madhavan by doing a cameo in his film Rocketry. Madhavan had acted in SRK’s film Zero in an extended cameo opposite Anushka Sharma,” says our source. However, nothing has been formally announced.
