SRK didn't have enough occasions to make his presence felt in Ravi Chopra's BHOOTHNATH. But now SRK will be seen in a full fledged role in Ravi's forthcoming venture KOHINOOR.

As per the latest buzz in B-town, King Khan has been approached by the veteran filmmaker Ravi Chopra for KOHINOOR. Apparently Abhay Chopra and Kapil Chopra, sons of director/producer Ravi Chopra are planning to make their debut with this film. Kapil the elder son will make his acting debut while younger brother Abhay will make his directorial debut with KOHINOOR by directing him. The story of this action-pack flick would revolve around the famous Kohinoor Diamond.

Though nothing seems to be confirmed as yet from King Khan's side but if everything goes accordingly, than the film will have 2 lead characters of which one will be played by Kapil Chopra and the other one obviously by Shah Rukh Khan.

Now SRK Vs KJO

The hottest buzz doing the rounds in tinsel town is that Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar will soon turn foes, when their films clash with each other at the box-office later this year. Khan's Billoo Barber and Karan's Dostana, may release on the same day, November 14, 2008.

Our source informs that earlier, Shah Rukh had planned to release his film during the Diwali weekend. But for reasons unknown, he has postponed it by over 10 days after the festival gets over, colliding with his director friend's film.

Karan was looking for a good bumper opening for his production, being a solo release on that day. But SRK's announcement to release Billoo on the same day has raised many eyebrows in KJo's camp.

Billoo Barber, which has the same story as Rajinikanth's Kuselan, is based on two friends – one a superstar and the other a barber in a village. It has Shah Rukh and Irrfan Khan in the lead. While Deepika Padukone and Kareena Kapoor romance SRK on screen, Lara Dutta plays Irrfan's wife. Billo has one item song featuring Kareena and Shah Rukh. The film is being produced under Shah Rukh's banner Red Chillies Entertainment and directed by Priyadarshan.

Dostana is also based on two friends, played by Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham. Priyanka Chopra and Bobby Deol are also a part of the lead star cast. The film has Shilpa Shetty's item number on Miami's beaches along with John and Abhishek. Dostana is being produced under the Dharma Productions banner and directed by his assistant Tarun Mansukhani.
