According to an earlier report, SRK is reuniting with Farah Khan for a sequel to their 2004 blockbuster Main Hoon Na. It is said that the project is tentatively titled Main Hoon Na 2. However, there has been no official confirmation yet.
"Shah Rukh Khan is equally excited about both projects, the Farah Khan directorial and this newly offered romantic saga," the source further added. "A final decision is expected by June, once he has had ample time to evaluate both scripts and their development progress. And he continues to meet and hear many other top names from the Indian Film Industry."
SRK to avoid physically demanding roles
After Pathaan and Jawan, the actor is said to take a break from the action-heavy phase. "After delivering back-to-back action spectacles, Shah Rukh Khan is keen to step away from physically demanding roles, following medical advice and minor injuries sustained over the past few years," the report further added. "This romantic drama, therefore, arrives at the right time. SRK is clear to start shooting for his next, post the release of King, certainly from January or February 2027."
