Shah Rukh Khan’s next war film to be bigger than Baahubali

Now that Baahubali has scripted history by becoming the first ever Indian movie to cross the 1000 crore mark, filmmakers across India have a huge benchmark to try and breach. The performance of a South Indian movie with regional actors has shaken the Bollywood hotshots including the Khans.

The latest we hear is that Shah Rukh Khan is coming up with something bigger than Baahubali. Reports are coming in from Bollywood media that the actor’s home production banner Red Chillies Entertainment are planning a huge project based on a phenomenal achievement of the Indian Army.

There are reports that the movie will be based on Operation Khukri and research works have already been started for the same. Operation Khukri is one of the golden achievements of the Indian paramilitary forces that deserves to be brought on big screen.

The makers are planning it on a huge budget and will be shot extensively in real locations in Africa. It will be a celebration of the unsung heroes of the Indian Army and the Indian Air Force. This will reportedly be the most expensive Bollywood movie ever.

More details regarding the cast and crew have not been disclosed yet. There is also no word on whether SRK will play the lead role. The actor has played the role of an army man in movies like Jab Tak Hai Jaan and Main Hoon Na. Patriotic films have always had a place in the hearts of Indian cinema audience. Let’s hope that Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming production will also turn into a huge blockbuster.

Shah Rukh Khan is currently shooting for his upcoming movie with director Imtiaz Ali starring Anushka Sharma as the female lead. He has also committed for a movie with director Anand L Rai.
