The dosti factor

Shah Rukh Khan patches-up with best friend Farah Khan's husband Shirish Kunder; Shirish to now direct SRK's film based on the book, The Zoya Factor
Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment has selected Shirish Kunder to direct a film based on Anuja Chauhan's super hit novel, The Zoya Factor. This news will come as a surprise to many considering that not too long ago SRK and Shirish had differences when the former refused to star in the latter's film, Joker. However, in the wake of this recent news, one can safely assume that all's well between the two now.

SRK will not only produce but also play a superstar in the film.

Our source said, "Earlier, Shirish was supposed to make Joker with SRK. However, SRK was not very happy with the final draft of the film because of which the project failed to go on the floors. What followed were several reports of a fall-out between the two. However, since SRK's best friend Farah Khan is married to Shirish, the actor couldn't stay upset with Shirish for long."

Coming back to the new film, SRK's production house bought the rights of The Zoya Factor as they were keen to make a film based on it. It was SRK who asked Shirish to make a film on the bestseller.

"Shirish has already started work on the film and after the final draft is made, they will start looking for a lead actor who will play a cricketer. The film will soon go on the floors," said our source.

Shirish Kunder said, "I am not allowed to speak about it."

We also sent a text message to SRK but he did not reply.


Shirish Kunder and Farah Khan



The Zoya Factor by Anuja Chauhan

The book is about Zoya who was born at the exact moment that India won the 1983 World Cup. Her father and brother suddenly realise that they never lose a match when Zoya accompanies them. Zoya herself realises this much later. While working in an ad-agency, Zoya gets to spend time with the Indian cricket team.

The chemistry between Zoya and the Indian captain Nikhil Khoda only makes things more interesting. In the end, Zoya's 'luck factor' works and India manages to win the World Cup and Nikhil proposes to Zoya.
