It’s a known fact that megastar Shah Rukh Khan is busy with his one of the most ambitious projects, Zero . He has been working on this film for months and will sign a new project only after wrapping this one. Even though he is busy with Aanand L Rai ’s film, news has it that he might be next seen in astronaut Rakesh Sharma’s biopic, Salute. But now, according to recent reports, the actor has been approached by Sanjay Leela Bhansali for a period romantic love story.
A source told a daily, “Not many know that Shah Rukh and Bhansali have been in talks for long. During a recent meeting, the director narrated his script to him. It is a fictional love story with a period setting. While Shah Rukh has given his nod in principle, the project is facing a road block by way of its female lead. Though the names of a few leading ladies are being thrown around, Bhansali is yet to zero in on an actress.”
Bhansali wants the project to go on floors later this year. “By the look of things at the moment, SRK will finish Zero and start Bhansali’s film. Salute will start only in January next year.”
Earlier when asked about starring in Bhansali’s next film, Shah Rukh had said, “With Sanjay, I would definitely like to work. In the last few months, we have been discussing a lot of projects. But there are date issues, his starting issue so inshallah, we will do something.”
