Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and maverick filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma look set to work together for the first time.
Is it a mere coincidence that SRK and Ramu, two of the most talented people in Bollywood, have not yet worked together?
There was even a time when Ramu said that the superstar tag of Shah Rukh was more like a packaging. However, the filmmaker did admit on a Veer Sanghavi show that he liked Aaditya Chopra’s movie Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge , one of the biggest hits of Shahrukh’s career.
But now, it seems that the twain are set to meet. The first expression of interest came from Ramu who wanted SRK to play Gabbar Singh in his ‘Sholay’ remake.
And the latest tinsel tattle is that Varma recently visited the sets of Karan Johar ’s next movie to meet Shah Rukh. The two are said to be in talks for a project that in all likelihood will materialize.
