Shah Rukh Khan On Aanand L Rai's Film: We Are Not Nervous But Wary

Shah Rukh Khan will share screen space with Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma in his next film

 Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who is currently prepping for Aanand L Rai's yet-untitled film, says "we are not nervous but wary." Of the film, Shah Rukh told news agency PTI: "It is taking a little longer as we had thought about it. We prepared it for two years and we are giving our best shot possible. It is a visually heavy effect film. It takes time and money is also being spent. We want to be very exact about everything." The 52-year-old actor added that the team of the film does not want to compromise on the visual effects and wants to impress the audience when the film is presented.

Bollywood's Baadshah SRK, who will be seen playing a vertically- challenged man in the film, said that the title and the poster of the movie are ready, reports PTI.

"Tomorrow if we put a photo about it, half the people would say... We have not worked hard on it. We are not nervous but we are little wary, we should put the best foot forward," PTI quoted Shah Rukh Khan as saying.

Shah Rukh has also assured that the poster of the film will be out soon. He said, "It will happen in few days. It is a little difficult film, so we want the first imagery... Someone who is playing vertically-challenged person, for a person who is a movie star who is known for romantic roles... So there will always be ifs and buts about the acceptance."

Aanand L Rai's film will see the reunion of Jab Tak Hai Jaan co-stars Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma. Katrina's latest film Tiger Zinda Hai, has broken all records and is 'sensational' at the box office with over Rs. 150 crore while Anushka Sharma, who recently married Virat Kohli, threw a grand reception in Mumbai yesterday, which was a star-studded affair and Katrina and Shah Rukh were in attendance.

Meanwhile, there are also reports about Shah Rukh that he will feature in a biopic on astronaut Rakesh Sharma. But Shah Rukh said, "I have not signed any film. I am working on the dwarf film. Maybe after couple of months I will decide what to do. I have been meeting Siddharth Roy Kapur and Ronnie Screwala (producers of Rakesh Sharma's biopic), a lot of directors and producers but I have not confirmed any film," reports PTI.

Shah Rukh was last seen in Jab Harry Met Sejal, also co-starring Anushka Sharma.

SRK feels young at heart

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan said that he does not feel like a 50-year-old man and is motivated to entertain his fans as the he completes 25 years in the film industry.

The actor, who was present at the Zee Cine Awards 2018 on Tuesday, received an award for completing 25 years in bollywood, which coincided with the silver jubilee celebration of the channel.

While receiving the award, Shah Rukh said, "Honestly, when I came to Mumbai, I thought of working here for two years and going back to Delhi. But then my films started doing well and in the blink of an eye, 25 years were over."

"Well, I am a 50-year-old man and in last 25 years, nothing has changed. My fans love me immensely, their support and interest to watch me in films have never changed. I do not feel my age. Rather I want to keep entertaining people for the rest of my life," he added.

Zee Cine Awards 2018 will be telecast on Zee TV on December 30.

A COMMON MAN’S LOVE CAN BE EXTRAORDINARY

Rab ne bana di jodi, a movie that was ahead of its time in the way that when we talk about body shaming today, RNBJ talked about it 8 years ago. The hero does not need to be sporting designer clothes, have a 6 pack body, come from money or even spout unealistic romantic dialogues. It brought love in its most common form to us.

Shah Rukh Khan’s character, Surinder, showed us that there is love in the most simplest of our day to day lives. We just have to open our eyes to see it. A gutsy move, no doubt, by SRK, when he decided to leave his star persona behind, and don the robes of the common man. Even his portrayal of Raj, is not the stereotypical “hero material. You do not fall in love with Raj immediately. Raj is loud, in your face, wannabe. Surinder is simple, caring, subtle and someone wanting to fade in the background. No one of the roles are even remotely near the Raj or Rahul of the films, that made SRK the heart beat of millions.

Aditya Chopra has brought forward love in its most day to day form in RNBDJ. Love that wakes up in the morning, gets ready and goes to the most boring job in the world. Love that wants nothing but the comfort of the other person. Love that always puts the other person first. Love that is willing to do everything in the world, to make the other person happy. Be it as simple as pushing down a plateful of biryani on a super full stomach, or as difficult as letting the other person go with somebody else, just to see her happy.

Suri is love. In all his off white shirts, spectacles, mustache, formal pants teamed up with sport shoes, Suri is about love. He fantasies dancing with his loved one, just as shown in the movies. But as suri, that is all that he dares to do. The most beautiful part of Suri is that he is comfortable in his own skin. He can understand that someone may not fall in love with him. But he is completely ok with that. He knows what he brings to the table. And that makes him even more likable. Love is so much more about the looks and the appearance. Love is about how you make the other person feel. And that is what Suri is about.
