‘Shahrukh and I are yet to take a call on the remaining cast’ – Rohit Shetty

Director Rohit Shetty who recently announced his film starring Shah Rukh Khan, has denied rumours of signing Varun Dhawan and Arjun Kapoor.

Over the last few weeks, there have been reports circulating that the ‘Main Tera Hero’ and ‘2 States’ stars have been signed by Rohit to play Shahrukh’s siblings in the film.

Declining the rumours, Rohit said ”I may need two boys on board with Shahrukh Khan. However, I’m still writing the film and I have not given a narration to either Arjun or Varun, so it is unfair to use their names.”

The ‘Chennai Express’ director who waits the release of his latest film ‘Singham Returns’ said that the official announcement will be made after the script is ready. So far only Shahrukh has been confirmed to play the lead.

“Arjun and Varun are my boys. I knew Arjun’s mother, Monaji, personally. Also, I have high regard for David Dhawan, Varun’s dad. I will definitely work with these boys and hopefully, they will agree to work with me (laughs), but I have not finalised them for my film with Shah Rukh. Once my final draft is ready, Shah Rukh and I will take a call on the remaining cast. Till then, everything you hear is mere speculation,” Rohit further added.

The yet-to-be-titled film will go on floors a few months after the release of Singham Returns starring Ajay Devgan and Kareena Kapoor.

Below we have a few pictures of the event where Rohit spoke about his film with Shahrukh Khan. Ajay and Kareena were also present to promote Singham Returns.

    You are actually comparing dhoom series with rohit shetty? Really? Is that the best reason you have got?

  • Dhoom series is the best brand in India irrelevant of the director. Everyone knows that. Besides this flop tashan director was the same man who scripted dhoom 1 and 2. So give credit to the persons who deserve it.

  • srk is most hated actor in rural area even they dnt like his posters. Salman and Ajay only two heroes famous in that area.

  • Trailer of Shahrukh Khan starrer ‘Happy New Year’ will be unveiled on 14th August for worldwide audience. Few lucky ones had chance to see the trailer today and here is our EXCLUSIVE update about the same.

    Film promo is on the lines of ‘Om Shanti Om’ as far as typical Bollywood masala is concerned. It is bigger and better in terms of scale. Promo showcases Shahrukh Khan in rather different looks and his romantic moments are cherry on the cake.

    Film promo has some mind blowing dialogues but those are urban not typical massy or south Indian cinema style. Songs are highlights of the film as one will expect from choreographer turned Farah Khan. There are 4 songs in promo including ‘Indiawaale’. The romantic number will be a chartbuster.

    Film has some high octane action but its again very edgy and interesting. Costumes and cinematography leave big impression. Overall trailer leaves fantastic impression and its a fact now that film will make big impact.

    Following are the pointers of the trailer –
