It was previously reported that Shah Rukh Khan will be seen in Atlee's directorial, also featuring Nayanthara and Sanya Malhotra. An Indian Express report quoted a source as saying last year, "While SRK started working on the film last week, Nayanthara joined a couple of days ago. It is also being said that Telugu superstar Rana Daggubati will play the antagonist in the film and he will join the cast later." The movie also stars Sunil Grover reportedly.
Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan recently wrapped the Spain schedule of Pathaan. The film also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. Pathaan is slated to release on January 25, 2023, in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
Shah Rukh Khan, who has been fairly active as a producer in the last few years, was last seen in 2018 film Zero, co-starring Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif.
