Shah Rukh Khan is an actor who has won millions of hearts. It's not just his charisma or looks but his immense talent that has garnered him so much fan following. Plus, the movies he has done in his past add on to the magnanimity of the actor's success level. Now imagine him shaking hands with ace director Imtiaz Ali for a film, you can only expect a lot more awesomeness! Shah Rukh Khan continues to explore new avenues through his roles. After playing his own fan in Fan and a real-life bootlegger in his next release, he dives right into the role of a tourist guide in Imtiaz Ali's next untitled film.
According to a well-informed source the role is directly inspired by Dev Anand's legendary turn as tourist guide in Vijay Anand's Guide. "Shah Rukh plays a tourist guide. Like Devsaab in Vijay Anand's film, there are many twists and turns in the Shah Rukh's character graph. He has a moral epiphany that changes his life and that of others he encounters," says the source. It looks like Shah Rukh is determined to bend the rules as far as possible even if it means forfeiting his regular blockbuster level of success. Although earlier there were reports that Anushka Sharma would be teaming up with SRK for the third time, we recently found out that it may not happen in Imtiaz's film. The slot for female lead is yet to be finalised.
