Shah Rukh Khan is one of the top actors in Bollywood today. He has been ruling hearts for decades now and has a huge fan base from all over the world.
Recently, SRK bagged his first-ever National Award in 33 years for Atlee's Jawan, and ever since, fans have been waiting for a sequel to the film. Fans have shared their excitement for them to work together more frequently and finally, the filmmaker has shared his views on the topic. During a new interaction with the media, the star revealed that the plans for Jawan 2 may not happen anytime soon and yes, we are all super sad to hear this.
Atlee, Shah Rukh Khan In Jawan 2?
During an appearance for the World Pickleball League season 2, where the director called SRK his favorite pickleball partner, Atlee was asked about the second part of the action thriller film. Talking to Hindustan Times, he said, "I think me and Shah Rukh sir will work on definitely something. But Jawan 2, I personally feel, maybe some years later. Not the immediate next. But definitely me and Shah Rukh sir will look into something when it comes in its flow."
He also refused the rumours of directing Farhan Akhtar's Don 3. Earlier, a report claimed that Shah Rukh Khan is now going to reprise the role after Ranveer Singh's exit, but on one condition. He wants Atlee, who directed him in Jawan, to helm the project. Last month, a source close to the production confirmed that the filmmaker is not a part of the movie. And now, Atlee himself has quoted, "Oh oh! That’s a rumour. I also read it. No no, nothing like that."
Professional Front
For the unversed, in Jawan, SRK played a double role in the film, portraying both a soldier father and a police officer's son. His monologue and action scenes were praised, and the film was declared an all-time blockbuster.
On the work front, SRK will next be seen in King alongside his daughter, Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Abhay Verma, Jaideep Ahlawat, among others.
Atlee, on the other hand, is once again working with Deepika Padukone for Allu Arjun’s next. The highly-awaited project, is tentatively titled AA22xA6.
