It’s been quite a while, since Shah Rukh Khan has taken a break from acting. The actor, who was last seen in Zero, has taken a liking towards creating and producing original content on Netflix.

His production house Red Chillies Entertainment has produced various series including Typewriter and Bard of Blood. But if the recent reports are to be believed SRK is all set to don the hat of a scriptwriter for his next venture.

As per the report, the project with Netflix was bankrolled three months earlier and the Baadshah of Bollywood was going to be a producer on the series. A report in Mid-Day states that SRK is taking keenly to writing. It claims that the actor has even joined his team of writers, which includes renowned political columnists. As per the source, quoted by the website,

Khan, who is enjoying a self-imposed sabbatical since Zero, has joined the writing team in scripting the show. He sits with the team, which includes renowned political columnists, to discuss the material every day. Given his vast knowledge of world politics, he comes up with scenes, referencing them from real-life events and the workings of the political dynasties around the globe. Whether he is taking credit for the concept or writing is yet to be known. However, the superstar has taken to writing keenly.

It remains uncertain whether he will take writing credits for his role or not.

Talking about his current sabbatical, the 53-year-old actor had once said, “It's not like I am holidaying. I'm really working hard. But I am working on a lot of stories and films to make for production. And it's nice not to have the stress of writing a film for me.”

On the work front, Shah Rukh is awaiting the release of the Netflix original series Bard Of Blood, which has been produced by him, and stars Emraan Hashmi, Vineet Kumar Singh, Amyra Dastur, Kirti Kulhari and Sobhita Dhulipala. The series will begin streaming on September 27.
