Shah Rukh Khan Refuses to Work with Alia Bhatt: Reportedly, Shah Rukh Khan has turned down the chance to star in Chamunda, the horror-comedy project that features Alia Bhatt. The film, according to Dinesh Vijan and Amar Kaushik, is part of the broader horror-comedy universe created by the producer and director of Maddock Films. Both seem inclined to have SRK as their lead, but rumor has it that this Bollywood superstar is not going to be interested in getting into this grouping. Even after that, SRK has decided that he will not go for it, so he shrugged his shoulders.
Shah Rukh Khan Not Very Interested in Joining 'Chamunda'?
As a source told Bollywood Hungama, Shah Rukh Khan will not be part of the cast of Chamunda, “With Amar Kaushik at the helm, Maddock was bullish on casting Shah Rukh Khan for Chamunda with Alia Bhatt. But things didn’t pan out as expected." "Shah Rukh Khan didn't want to enter an already established universe and rather start a new world with Maddock and Amar Kaushik. He has asked the duo to come to him with something fresh and explore a genre never done before," the source added.
"The two (Dinesh Vijan and Amar Kaushik) are now exploring new names for Chamunda and hoping to team up with Shah Rukh Khan in a couple of years on something fresh," the source concluded.
