He opened up on his preparation work for his next film ‘King’ and his collaboration with filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh.
He said, “There are certain kinds of film that I want to do, maybe it’s more age centric and I want to try something for 6-7 years I’ve been thinking about it and I mentioned it to Sujoy one day while we were sitting. He works with us at our office, he’s made some films for us. He says, Sir, I have a subject.
” SRK also spoke about losing weight for his film ‘King’, “The next film I am doing ‘King’, I have to start working on it, have to lose some weight a little, do some stretching,” he added. Reportedly, the film is also set to star Shah Rukh’s daughter and actor, Suhana. Shah Rukh Khan has been part of several action movies like ‘Jawan’, ‘Pathaan’, among others.
The ‘Darr’ star shared that he finds action challenging and exhausting. As he mentioned, “Action is difficult, you have to practice it learn it and doubles are doing some of the dangerous stunts. I have some wonderful guys.
But 80 per cent you have to finally do it yourself if you have to sell it truthfully. Otherwise, it doesn’t look right.
