Shah Rukh Khan in R Madhavan's project

Shah Rukh Khan In Madhavan’s Bio-Pic, And It's A 40 Minute Role

It is confirmed. Shah Rukh Khan’s last screen appearance until he signs further films , is going to be in R Madhavan’s directorial debut Rocketry, a bio-pic on the amazing story of scientist Nambi Narayanan whose glorious work was tainted by false allegations of spying.

Shah Rukh Khan has been roped in to play a television journalist in Rocketry.

Says a source close to the project, “The entire story of Nambi Narayanan unfolds through his conversation with the journalist as played by Shah Rukh Khan. It’s a prominent role, and his fans won’t be disappointed.”

This appearance should keep SRK fans going until he signs another film, hopefully in the near future. Shah Rukh’s next project is likely to be with Raj Kumar Hirani.

For all the fans of Shah Rukh Khan who have been waiting bated-breath to know which film the Superstar will sign next, here is news to gladden the heart.

SRK zeroed in on a number of interesting scripts.Among them is a film to be directed by Raj Kumar Hirani.If things had gone as per plan Shah Rukh would have been Hirani’s Munnabhai.

Yes, that’s right. SRK was the original choice to play Munnabhai while Vivek Oberoi was chosen to play Munnabhai’s friend Circuit.But SRK was not enthused by Munnabhai and the project went to Sanjay Dutt.

While Hirani has done two major films Aamir Khan, it is Shah Rukh that Hirani has been absolutely to work with.

It looks like this dream team will rock the silver screen together. Sources say Shah Rukh has liked an idea that Hirani has come up with. And it’s being developed….the idea and a collaboration that could take Shah Rukh’s career to the next level.
