Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan team up for Sujoy Ghosh's next

Sujoy Ghosh, who is best known for his film 'Kahaani' is making his new thriller 'Badla'. The film reunites Pink co-stars Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu. Latest news suggests that Shahh Rukh Khan has also come on board.

King Khan and Big B have earlier worked in blockbusters like 'Kabhie Khushi Kabhie Gham', 'Mohabbatein', and 'Bhoothnath'. But unlike these films, SRK will not act in Badla. The actor, instead is the co-producer of the film, states a news daily.

Confirming the news, Ghosh said, "When you get an actor like Amitabh Bachchan, half your battle is won as he’s every director’s delight and I’m extremely excited to direct him. Also, I have been trying to work with Taapsee for a while. This is the perfect story to collaborate with her on. My excitement is doubled now that the film is being produced by SRK. I couldn’t have asked for a better team and now it is time for work."

Ghosh's crime thriller is reportedly an adaptation of the Spanish film 'The Invisible Guest' (2014).

Ghosh stated that both SRK and Big B really liked the script of the film. "I thought it was superlative material for AB Sir and pitched it to him. Taapsee was already on board, SRK also loved the source material and the collaboration happened seamlessly."

The crew is currently shooting in London for the film.
