Atlee to team up with Shah Rukh Khan for Mersal remake?

For the last few days there has been a buzz in online space about Shah Rukh Khan joining hands with Tamil filmmaker Atlee for the remake of ‘Mersal’. Adding fuel to the speculations, the two were spotted together in last day’s IPL game between Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders held at Chepauk stadium in Chennai. Atlee, his wife Priya and Shah Rukh Khan were seated together at the VIP lounge.

Photos of the two from the stadium spread virally in social medias and ignited further talks about a possible collaboration. Trade analyst Ramesh Bala confirmed that SRK and Atlee are doing a movie together. He has tweeted,

@iamsrk and @Atlee_dir are certainly doing a Movie together..

Whether it’s #Mersal Hindi remake or fresh script is to be decided..

Along with this, there is a different set of rumours saying that SRK will be appearing in a cameo role in Atlee’s ongoing film that has Vijay in the lead. It has been four months since the release of ‘Zero’, but SRK is yet to announce his next film. His last few films were all failures, so the star is said to be extra careful about his upcoming films.
