"Our films are also capacity films. I think they have the capacity to take on 4,000 screens and fill them up. If we come with another film, unfortunately we don't have the capacity to fill in. So we are running at half capacity. We haven't been able to exploit what our market gives us," Shah Rukh added.

Last year, Shah Rukh's Raaes narrowly avoided a clash with Salman Khan's Sultan (which resulted in the aforementioned clash with Kaabil). Meanwhile, the trailer of Shah Rukh Khan's Jab Harry Met Sejal will be attached to Salman's Tubelight, which will open in theatre on June 23.
Jab Harry Met Sejal is directed by Imtiaz Ali and also stars Anushka Sharma. The title, which was finally disclosed on Friday after much hullabaloo, is homonymical to Hollywood film When Harry Met Sally, but SRK says that both films are unrelated. "It is a throwback to that. The film is not like that at all. When Harry Met Sally is perhaps one of the most revered love-stories. But this (Jab Harry Met Sejal) is an unabashed love story. It is a happy film as the poster suggests. And the character's names are Harinder 'Harry' Singh and Sejal. It is kind of the Punjabi, Gujarati combination," he told IANS.
After Jab Harry Met Sejal, Shah Rukh Khan will be seen in Aanand L Rai's film which also stars Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif. SRK also has a cameo in Salman's Tubelight.
