Anushka Sharma will play the female lead in Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film that is being directed by ‘Tanu Weds Manu Returns’ director Aanand L Rai. The film also stars Katrina Kaif.
Shah Rukh will be playing the role of a dwarf in the romantic film about new-age relationships.
The director had earlier said Shah Rukh was his first and only choice to play the lead character.
“I am at a point in life when I want to do something challenging. And, when you get an opportunity to work with actors like these, you don’t want to miss it. All three characters have a newness about them. The film is not a romcom or a pure love story. It’s about new-age relationships. I can’t talk about Katrina’s or Anushka’s characters. While everyone knows that SRK plays a dwarf, there’s a lot more to it than just that.”
“As a director, you instinctively know what’ll work with an artiste. I needed an actor who is very sure of himself for this role. Also, nobody can romance like him. On his part, he never had any apprehensions about playing a dwarf. The film begins the way I love to start my stories, but the way it ends is a first for me. I’m nervous and excited at the same time”
The shooting of the untitled film began last week.
@NN Are you @RaeesNN from twitter?
First and only choice? Ah ! Don’t lie ALR, you approached salman before hakla ?
@sayar I am not against romantic films but tell me in past 7-8 years, which purely romantic movie became the huge success. Other thing is that srk don’t have age on his side. Frankly speaking as a neutral person my expectation went down as director mentioned film revolves around relationship. Also Srk-Kat and Srk-Anushka chemistry doesn’t create much curiosity too. Being a srk fan your fan won’t match with me. Chill.
@Aamir-emperor, but Akki most of the recent hit films don’t have big actresses like Airlift, hf3, Rustom, Baby, Holiday, Gabbar, Jolly LLB 2, etc.On other hand srk most movies with big actresses like HNY, Dilwale, Jab tak hai jaan, Chennai Express, etc. Akshay dont need big actress for a hit Akki> srk.
@Nikhil the lunatic Bhakt-Oh yeah, akshay is such a big star that he gives 12 crore opening on solo release and his biggest blockbuster is lower than SRK’s smallest semi-hits. He is such a big star that he is yet to cross Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gum’s overseas collection. We are so worried what kind of puny opening he will give with Toilet…!! Not to mention his horrible hit ratios and success ratio…!! Only bhakts can give this kind of imbecile comments like you.
BIGGEST BLOCKBUSTER COMING ON CHRISTMAS 2018 !!!!!!!
Can anyone tell me how much I have to pay for making publish my comments ?
