New Delhi: Before the release of Aanand L Rai’s ‘Zero’, it was said that Shah Rukh Khan’s next film will be ‘Saare Jahaan Se Achcha’. Although, the makers of the film didn’t officially announce the project, SRK had confirmed his presence. Aamir Khan, who was earlier approached for the Rakesh Sharma biopic, had also confirmed that King Khan is doing the film. However, gossip mills have been buzzing with the rumours that Shah Rukh has opted out of the film which will be produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur and Ronnie Screwvala.
It was said that the ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’ actor has chosen to be part of Farhan Akhtar’s ‘Don 3’ over ‘Saare Jahaan Se Achcha’. Movie buffs were excited to see SRK in the role of cosmonaut Rakesh Sharma. The reports of the ‘Chennai Express’ star quitting the film disappointed them.
As per the latest buzz, Shah Rukh has not opted out of the biopic and the reports of him quitting the film are not true.
