SRK Reveals How He Asked Salman Khan For The Role In Aanand L Rai’s Next!

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan who is gearing up for his upcoming release Jab Harry Met Sejal with Anushka Sharma is also in news for his next with filmmaker Aanand L Rai . The film in which Shah Rukh plays a dwarf has clearly become the talk of the town. It is being shot differently and a lot of VFX has been used. Another interesting bit is that Salman Khan also has a cameo in the dwarf film. In a recent media interaction, SRK revealed how he and Aanand L Rai asked Salman to play the part.

Shah Rukh Khan shared the whole incident and said, "He is very kind. This (role) was written a long time back in the film, from the first narration onwards. Salman has also heard the script, I think Aanand wanted to make the film with him at one time. They didn't have the time, things didn't work out and VFX wasn't ready."

SRK said, "We were at home, Aanand was there when Salman just walked in to say hi to me. He got his new e-cycle for me and for Aryan and Suhana as well. Aanand said I should ask him. I said, 'Salman, there's one role', he said, 'Yeah, let me know'. "Then, everything just worked out perfectly. He had two days off, we needed ten days to put up the set," says Shah Rukh.

"He (Rai) has edited some portions, we have a good amount of film ready. He said, 'Sir, please watch it, it's looking good and this is without the technical part'. It's a really interesting and exciting film. I am saying it's good not because I am showing off, but it's so different. We are really happy with what we have achieved so far," added the King Khan.

Aanand L Rai ’s film also stars Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma in key roles. The team have completed most of the shooting schedule and are gearing up for the post production and VFX parts. Shah Rukh Khan ’s another film with Imtiaz Ali, Jab Harry Met Sejal , is scheduled to release this August 4!
