Shah Rukh out of Yashraj camp?

Director Aditya Chopra will make a film without Khan for the first time, has cast Abhishek Bachchan instead

Ever heard of an Aditya Chopra film without Shah Rukh Khan? Shah Rukh has been the face of blockbusters films like Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge and Mohabbatein (both made by Chopra) but in a latest development, Chopra has decided to drop his favourite star in favour of Abhishek Bachchan.

It is rumoured that owing to Shah Rukh's alienation from the Bachchans, the Chopras have decided to keep him out of their camp. According to our source, Abhishek Bachchan will take over in Chopra's next project. "It will be a romantic film. They are considering Rani Mukherji to play the lead," our source reveals.

Chopra is tight-lipped about his forthcoming venture, but sources say that Shah Rukh is history as far as Yashraj films go. This is in stark contrast to the solidarity that the two have expressed on numerous instances previously. In an earlier interview, Yash Chopra had even stated, "Shah Rukh is like my family. I don't have to sign him for my projects. He will always be with me even if he is not part of my projects."

Not many people know that it was Adi Chopra who convinced Shah Rukh to work in Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge and that Yash Chopra took up a fight with Sunny Deol, in support of Shah Rukh Khan during the making of Darr. So much so, that after Darr the Deols and Chopras never worked together.

However, in a bid to make truce with everyone, the Chopras have even signed Bobby Deol for Shaad Ali's Jhoom Bara Bar Jhoom. "Chopras are reconciling with everyone, just to make Shah Rukh feel that he not indispensable," says our source.

Shah Rukh, on his part is very disappointed with Chopra. He always made time for Yashraj films from Darr to Veer Zara, they have had a long-standing association. Shah Rukh has always maintained his dignity and said, "I don't believe in all these rumours. Amitji is above all this. Abhishek is like my younger brother and my kids are fond of him." However our source says, "Shah Rukh shouldn't have taken panga with Amar Singh, he is very powerful and can twist anyone's arm. Even then, it is unfair to dump Shah Rukh from the camp, just because of the Bachchans."

Although Shah Rukh and Yash Chopra have denied the 'so-called' war between them, their actions seem to speak otherwise. Yash Chopra has blocked all the major theatres and multiplexes for Dhoom 2, which is slated for a Diwali release. Incidentally, Ritesh Sidhwani is planning to release Farhan Akhtar's film Don, starring Shah Rukh Khan at the same time. "Yashraj has the biggest distribution network in India, and after Hrithik Roshan's Krrish, people are eagerly waiting for the much-hyped Dhoom 2. It seems that UTV will be distributing Don, and will face tough competition from Dhoom 2," says our source.

well all of Shahrukh's films are superhits, so even if they signed Abhishek, SRK is the better actor and is the best 😳, i don't think there's any differences between the Bachchans and Chopras with SRK, its the media stirring up trouble

watever lucky_lakshmi wrote i totally disagree wid that, even thou every1 haz their own opinion i dont think that abhishek can ever match shahrukh, he doz not have the same talent haz srk, and abhishek doz not cum in the same category ov acting like srk doz, i think that theze stories ov him and the chopraz r false.

people should not read too much into it, i am certain they will work together again, i would rather see a Abhi and Rani movie then SRK and Rani.
