If this rumour turns out to be true, it's going to be granddaddy of all casting coups. Director Rohit Shetty's next film may just star Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, whose celluloid romance has spanned two decades and been documented in films like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and My Name is Khan.
Kajol semi-retired from the screen after marrying Ajay Devgn in 1999. She took a five-year break after 2001's Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, in which she played the Punjabi Anjali with such aplomb that it fetched her a Filmfare Award for Best Actress. After 2006's Fanaa opposite Aamir Khan, Kajol has made only the most sporadic of film appearances. Her last leading role was in Karan Johar's 2010 film We Are Family.
Kajol has reportedly been scouting around for a suitable film to make a second comeback in and a project with long-time screen flame SRK would be fittingly filmy.
Rohit Shetty has frequently directed Kajol's husband Ajay Devgn in the Singham and Gol Maal series. He directed Shah Rukh Khan in the 2013 blockbuster Chennai Express.
