King of Bollywood Shah Rukh Khan has spilled the beans about shooting for his next film.
The ‘Dilwale’ star was busy all of 2023.
Speaking to Star Sports for Kight Club’s King Khan Rules on Friday, the actor revealed details of when he will go back to shooting this year and more.
Shah Rukh noted that he had three releases last year (Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki), which meant he was working non-stop.
The ‘Om Shaanti Om’ star further stated that given that his roles required a lot from him physically, he decided to take a break and concentrate on his IPL cricket team, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), instead.
Here are the exact words of the actor:
“I just felt ki main thoda rest kar sakta hoon. Teen filmein kar chuka hoon, it took a lot of physical work also. So I said maybe I’ll take some time off. I told the whole team ki, main matches ko aaunga. Fortunately, meri shooting ab August main hain, ya July… we plan in June, to June se shuru hojayegi. So, I am absolutely free to come to all the matches. Main khushi se aata hoon. (I felt I could rest. I did three physically demanding films. I told the whole team I’ll come to their matches. Fortunately, I don’t shoot my next till August or June, we plan in June. It makes me happy to be here).”
It is worth noting that Shah Rukh Khan arrived and conquered with his comeback film Pathaan and made history at the box office by earning 1000+ crore at the box office, then followed Jawan, another mega blockbuster that the superstar was declared as a natural resource by business tycoon Anand Mahindra. His last film, Dunki, won a million hearts. And after three back-to-back releases, fans are eagerly waiting for his next blockbuster project.
It is speculated that Shah Rukh Khan will be doing his best with daughter Suhana Khan titled King and the film will mark the superstar's daughter's theatrical debut. King is reportedly being made with a whopping budget of Rs 200 crore and it is also claimed that Shah Rukh is co-producing Sujoy Ghosh's directorial.
