Anupamaa 26 Sept 2025 Written Update & Daily Discussions Thread
Anupama never reviews the movies that her husband produces or directs so it was definitely a dig at her. I guess I can see both sides, Shahrukh's as well as hers. If she reviews it then there'll be a conflict of interest where as he's saying she should since that's her job.

I am not doing a film with Chak De India director, Shimit Amin - I would love to work with him someday in future, says Shah Rukh Khan while promoting Fan.
Shah Rukh Khan, who will next be seen as Superstar Aryan and Fan Gaurav in Maneesh Sharma's upcoming thriller Fan, while promoting the film on being asked if he is collaborating with Chak De India director, Shimit Amin yet again, he said,
"No, I am not doing a film with Shimit Amin. Even i have been reading those reports, but they are not true. I would love to work with him someday in future."
Fan is Shah Rukh Khan's 8th Film with YRF after Darr, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Dil Toh Pagaal Hai, Mohabattein, Veer Zaara, Rab Ne Bada Di Jodi and Jab Tak Hai Jaan. The movie is set to hit the big screen on 15 April 2016.
With Eid likely to see the box office clash of his "Raees" and friend Salman Khan's "Sultan", superstar Shah Rukh Khan feels it would be logical to shift their release dates so that both the films do not eat into each other's business. With Eid likely to see the box office clash of his "Raees" and friend Salman Khan's "Sultan", superstar Shah Rukh Khan feels it would be logical to shift their release dates so that both the films do not eat into each other's business.
"I think logic will be to shift (release dates of both Raees' and Sultan'). We will try and figure out a way so that it doesn't eat into each other's business. It is awkward... it's like what are we doing. I don't think we like to have it (box office clash)," Shah Rukh told PTI.
The 50-year-old star said he will talk to his friend Aditya Chopra, who is the producer of "Sultan", and Salman regarding the box-office clash of both the films.
"Adi (Aditya Chopra) is my family and so is Farhan Akhtar (producer of Shah Rukh's Raees'). With all due respect I will speak to Adi, Salman (about avoiding the clash). I have spoken to Farhan already. If we have to change, one of us will move on," Shah Rukh said.
"If they are adamant or fixated that somehow due to some sense of righteousness Eid belongs to Salman Khan so be it."
SRK said he and his producers have no ego issues about the release dates of both the films.
"Personally Farhan, Adi and I are friends and I don't think we have ego issues. We all know if there is an opening number assumed in terms of business we will share it 50-50 or whichever ratio. I am not saying X is a bigger star or Y."
But at the same time, Shah Rukh insisted that they are working towards making "Raees" ready for Eid.
"As of now we are making the film ready for Eid. Our production is ready for Eid," he said.
Producer Farhan Akhtar too had hinted that they will see if the clash happens or not.
Shah Rukh's last film "Dilwale" released alongside Sanjay Leela Bhansali's magnum opus "Bajirao Mastani" - starring Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra.
"In case of Dilwale' and Bajirao Mastani', both lost money due to the clash. One doesn't want it," Shah Rukh said, adding, "It has never been a fight of arrogance when it comes to the release of a film. I feel every film should get its due."
Rahul Dholakia's "Raees" is set in 1980s of Gujarat. It tells the story of bootlegger Raees Khan (Shah Rukh Khan), whose business is highly challenged and eventually thwarted by a police officer (Nawazuddin Siddiqui).
Shah Rukh sports a kohl-eyed, scruffy look in the movie.
According to him, it is a realistic and honest film.
"I wanted to do an intense criminal role with a golden heart. I loved the idea very much and said yes in 20 minutes. I think it will be an interesting film. We have been able to make it in the real zone, and still give it a twist for the masses by having songs and action," he said.
"Raees' transcends the journey of a man who may not be the best person to make a movie about. He is a bad guy you might like," he said.
Shah Rukh had last played a bad guy in the remake of "Don".
"Yes, I am, in a way, playing a bad guy after a long time. This film is more realistic and gritty while Don' was stylised and sexy. On the sets, some people did not talk to me as I looked mean. It will turn out well," he said.
Actress Sunny Leone will be seen dancing with Shah Rukh in a new take of the 1980 "Laila O Laila" from "Qurbaani". The original track featured Feroz Khan and Zeenat Amaan.
"We wanted to do the song in the first schedule, that time we did not get it. We did a new song, an original one. It is not an item song. It is a film set in the '80s, so it's a bar number, it is related to the story.
"We always wanted to do the song with Sunny. We thought Laila...' song is apt for her," he added.

Fan is your eighth film with Yash Raj ... is working there like coming home?
If I start counting from Darr onwards, I have done eight films with YRF in about 20 years. We always try to do one film which is different and one which is a regular film. I am trying to do another film with Aditya Chopra next year.
That sounds interesting!
He is planning one film with me after Befikre. I think I will start shooting for Aditya's next film by the end of 2017. All he has told me is that it's a very big project. He told me that the shooting will be wrapped up in three months, but I will have to sit with Adi for two months to prepare for the character.
In Fan, you play a superstar and his 24-year-old fan. Which role was more difficult to essay?
For me, playing Aryan Khanna was way more difficult because that is what I am. I am a superstar; however that character had to be played with a certain amount of dignity and style and is in a very real zone. As for playing Gaurav the fan, the emotions which come through when I am watching a KKR (Kolkatta Knight Riders) or an Indian cricket match makes me a fan ... so that emotion comes naturally. All the credit for Gaurav's character should go to Maneesh (Sharma, the director). I tried my best to fit into the character the way Maneesh wanted. It is completely Maneesh's vision, and I think we have achieved what we wanted.
Is the obsessive quality of Gaurav's character similar to what you played in Darr?
Darr's character was a little psychopathic while Gaurav is a person who does not know the enormity of rightness or wrongness. He is not psychopathic; he is just a 24 year old kid.
The energy that you show in the Jabra song has become a talking point.
I am very energetic in whatever I do. My energy comes from the fact that I enjoy doing whatever I do. If I play football with my kids, I play it as if I am playing the football World Cup.
Have you received any particularly interesting gift from a fan?
I have two plots on the moon, and that is the biggest birthday gift I have got on my birthday. I think when people gift me books or cards it is really emotional and special. I keep all the gifts from my fans. My safe doesn't have expensive things; my safe is full of cards and gifts from my fans. Not that I get time, but when I see them, it feels nostalgic. Some little girls have given me a half broken heart - the other half is with them. I keep them all. I have lots of teddy bears. I give them to my daughter sometimes. People from all around the world give gifts for my kids - not only do for Abram but for all three kids. They find out the proper measurements, the right size and also the taste. That's very touching.
Your thoughts on superstardom...
You need to get a different kind of love to be a superstar. The kind of love is not tangible. If that was explainable, we could create so many superstars in the industry. I think it takes many years of work for one to attain superstardom. I don't think any actor can explain the phenomenon of being a superstar. There is no explanation for that.
Buzz is that you are playing a dwarf in Aanand L Rai's next film. Will that be a difficult film?
Technology wise, My VFX Company and Aanand are already working on the film. Aanand has a collection of the things we need to do and the VFX team is figuring that out. We will take some time to get things right for the film since VFX is not an easy job. I would have a problem if I had to play a dwarf on my knees; and I think that would look unreal as well. So we are trying to put things together using VFX. I want to shoot the film in a more real manner wherein I get the chance to act the way I want to. If we find difficulty in doing so, we will go abroad and learn it from there.
