Director Anurag Kashyap Reveals Why He Cannot Work With Shah Rukh Khan?
Shah Rukh Khan is one of Bollywood’s most iconic stars, with a fan base that extends far beyond India, reaching across the globe. Known for delivering numerous blockbusters, even his lesser-known films receive admiration from his fans. Despite collaborating with many renowned directors throughout his career, he has never worked with Anurag Kashyap. Recently, Kashyap explained why a collaboration with SRK is not feasible for him.
Despite not working together, Anurag Kashyap admires Shah Rukh Khan. The two are often seen interacting in social gatherings.
‘It is impossible’: Anurag Kashyap on making a film with SRK
In a recent interview with Humans of Cinema, Anurag Kashyap revealed that it is impossible for him to work with SRK. He said, “My favorite Shah Rukh Khan film is Chak De India. Also Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa. In his beginning stage, SRK worked with everybody. But it is impossible to make a film with Shah Rukh Khan now.”
Further mentioning the reason behind his statement, he said, “I aspired it once and I like him a lot, but I am very scared of fans now. In this day and age of social media, I am terrified by the fanbases big stars have. Actors get typecast because of fans, and the fans want the same things from them again and again. If that doesn’t happen fans reject it, so even actors get apprehensive about trying new things.”
The filmmaker added, “Hence I am scared because I will make the film I want to and not just cater to the fans. The repercussions or consequences of what happens then can cost you a lot. So it’s not in my capacity to cater to SRK’s aura or enigma. If his film Fan would have worked, I could have said that I too have the courage to work with him.”
On the work front, Shah Rukh Khan recently delivered three films in 2023. While Pathaan and Jawan were blockbusters, Dunki also did well at the box office. More details on his upcoming movies are awaited.
