Shah Rukh Khan's 'Ra 1' postponed

Shah Rukh Khan has postponed his ambitious Sci-fi action thriller Ra 1 to next year.

The delay will give him enough time to fully recover from his shoulder injury sustained on the sets of Dulha Mil Gaya, and be fully fit for the intense action sequences planned in Ra 1.

The postponement follows a medical checkup that Shah Rukh underwent in the US where he is currently shooting for Karan Johar’s, My Name is Khan, with co-star Kajol.

The Anubhav Sinha helmed Ra 1 was to go on floors in September 2009 after having been earlier pushed back from February 2009 due to SRK's injury.

SRK will play a superhero in the film which will be replete with SFX and state of the art gizmos.

“SRK has been suffering because of his shoulder injury. He had injured himself on the sets of Dulha Mil Gaya a few months ago. After his surgery, SRK started shooting for Karan Johar’s My Name is Khan, which he will soon complete. However, he decided to temporarily put Ra 1 on hold as he is required to do some serious action sequences in the film," a source told Mumbai Mirror.

On completing My Name is Khan, Shah Rukh will start filming for Farah Khan’s Happy New Year.
