The digital era is certainly gaining a lot of prominence and one of the prime reasons is how Netflix has managed to become a huge phenomenon in India.

Knowing and understanding the opportunities and growth in the digital space, the Bollywood actors seem to have an eye for the digital platform and especially Netflix.

And while we are awaiting Saif Ali Khan's digital debut with Netflix's upcoming adaptation of Sacred Games, Bollywood's superstar, Shah Rukh Khan dropped a bomb of surprise by announcing about his upcoming Netflix project.

Oh yes, the Badshah of Bollywood has made our hearts skip a beat with his impeccable acting skills, wittiness and business mind. While we are talking about SRK and business, here's all the deets about his new interesting project.

However there's a twist here. This time, the King Khan will be seen in a different capacity and that will be as the creator of Red Chillies Entertainment. The actor will be making an upcoming Netflix original called Bard Of Blood.

And the announcement of the same was made in the most amazing and quirkiest manner where Shah Rukh was having a normal discussion and a bolting idea strucks him and he decides to make a show. And that's it... well, that's some style and mind. And why not, that's Shah Rukh Khan- always the charmer and a unique personality.

Based on the bestselling 2015 book of the same name by Bilal Siddiqi, the multilingual series,(in Urdu, English, Hindi and other languages) is set in the Indian subcontinent. It will follow Kabir Anand, an expelled spy who is recalled from his new life as a Shakespeare professor to save his country and his long-lost love. The series will feature intricate, highly stylized action sequences.

Well, we have seen SRK rock at the 70-mm screen and now we are even more excited to see him spread his magic in the digital space. Are you?
