Shah Rukh Khan to begin shooting for Aanand L Rai’s romantic film this year
For the first time, Raanjhanaa director Aanand L Rai will work with Shah Rukh Khan.

Aanand L Rai, who has proved his direction skills with films like Raanjhanaa, Tanu Weds Manu and Tanu Weds Manu Returns, is now prepping up for his much anticipated project with Shah Rukh Khan. Though it was no secret that the actor and director are teaming up for the first time, nothing more was known about the project. All we heard through rumours was that SRK might be playing a dwarf in the film.
Shah Rukh and Anand Rai might not be revealing anything about the film, but trade analyst Taran Adarsh has given out some information. Through a series of Tweets, he spoke about Aanand’s upcoming projects, including the one with King Khan.
