Aanand L Rai's next, which is also popularly known as the dwarf film, has been in the news since the project was announced. This project was much-in-discussion as it marks the first collaboration between Shah Rukh Khan and Aanand L Rai and later over the two leading ladies.
While the names of Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma have been being doing rounds, in a recent interview Aanand L Rai confirmed the same.
Talking about the same, Aanand added, "I am at a point in life when I want to do something challenging. And, when you get an opportunity to work with actors like these, you don't want to miss it. All three characters have a newness about them. The film is not a romcom or a pure love story. It's about new-age relationships. I can't talk about Katrina's or Anushka's characters. While everyone knows that SRK plays a dwarf, there's a lot more to it than just that."
When asked if the two leading ladies, Katrina and Anushka will be seen sharing scene space, Aanand revealed that the two don't come face-to-face in the film. The director revealed, "There is something that keeps them glued to each other. The story is such that one enters when the other leaves."
Talking about SRK playing a dwarf in the project, Aanand said, "As a director, you instinctively know what'll work with an artist. I needed an actor who is very sure of himself for this role. Also, nobody can romance like him. On his part, he never had any apprehensions about playing a dwarf."
Signing off Aanand concluded, "The film begins the way I love to start my stories, but the way it ends is a first for me. I'm nervous and excited at the same time."
