Earlier there were reports that stated Shah Rukh Khan opted out of a project as the makers were in talks with Kangana Ranaut for the same project. However, Shah Rukh Khan at the Yash Raj Memorial Awards night denied any such development.
According to a leading daily, Sanjay Leela Bhansali narrated two scripts to Shah Rukh. While Shah Rukh liked both the scripts, he only signed on for one which didn't star Kangana alongside him. Both, SRK and Kangana have individually confirmed that they are in talks with Sanjay Leela Bhansali for a film. There is, however, no confirmation if the two were talking about the same film.
This story unturned when Karan Johar, on his chat show 'Koffee With Karan', asked Kangana as to which Khan amongst Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, and Shah Rukh would she want to work with next. To this, she said that she would not want to work with any of them as she won't take up a film where her role is sidelined.
When Shah Rukh was asked to comment on the same at a recent awards ceremony, he said, "
Don't believe what you read online."
