After the phenomenal success of the Rajnikant starrer Sivaji , there was bound to be huge demand for the film's director Shankar. The latest is that none other than Shah Rukh Khan has managed to sign the director for his next film. Although details of the film aren't available, the film is bound to be a big budget film, considering Shankar has been known for his extravagant sets and huge budgets. The director was reportedly paid a whopping three crore rupees for Sivaji which had a huge budget of over Rs 35 crores.

Shankar has earlier done such films as the Aishwarya Rai starrer Jeans , and the Anil Kapoor starrer Nayak , besides other films. Shankar's last film before Sivaji was Anniyan which released in 2005. Considering that he's decided to direct Shah Rukh now, seems like the director will be doing more films and not be taking a long break as before.

When contacted about the rumour, Shah Rukh's manager Bobby Chawla, said, "This is news to me. We are still involved with Om Shanti Om , and I don't know anything about Shankar being signed for Shah Rukh's next."

Shah Rukh's next release, meanwhile, will be Yashraj's Chakde India , which is the story of a coach (played by Shah Rukh) who is instrumental in turning around the fortunes of a girls' hockey team.
