Vishal Bhardwaj on working with Shah Rukh Khan: The time is coming

Director Vishal Bhardwaj, who is coming up with the espionage-thriller Khufiya next week, recently said in an interview that he and Shah Rukh Khan have been “trying to work with each other” for a long time and when he recently met him, the superstar said that he has a feeling that soon they will do something together.

In an interview with News 18, the Haider (2014) director said, “In fact, Jawan ke baad — I loved Jawan — I called him and spoke to him at length. At one point, we came very close to doing a film. It was announced also and we were going to shoot but somehow it didn’t happen.”. The director was seemingly referring to the time when he was planning to make 2 States with SRK. For the unversed, in 2010, Mumbai Mirror had reported that Vishal was going to adapt 2 States with Shah Rukh. It was also reported that Asin was going to star opposite SRK in the film. It was eventually helmed by Abhishek Varman and featured Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor.

“Whenever we meet, humesha yeh rehta hai ke kab hona hai. Ab wo waqt aa raha hai (Whenever we meet, there is always this thing that when is it happening. I guess the time is coming)” he added. “Cameo toh ho hi gaya hai indirect toh film bhi iss baar honi chahiye. Andar se mujhe bhi feeling aa rahi hai. Shah Rukh ne bhi mujhe bola hai ke iss baar mujhe kuch lag raha hai ke hum log kuch kar payenge saath mein (There was an indirect cameo (in Khufiya), so a film isn’t far offI am also feeling it from the inside. Shah Rukh has told me that even he is feeling that this time we will be able to do something together).”

Bhardwaj recently released his OTT debut series Charlie Chopra & The Mystery of Solang Valley. The show stars Wamiqa Gabbi in the lead. Upcoming is Netflix’s Khufiya with Tabu, Wamiqa and Ali Fazal.
