S Shankar is all set to work with Shah Rukh Khan

Director S Shankar is keen to repeat his recent success working with Tollywood’s finest Rajnikant in Sivaji, this time working with Bollywood’s finest Shah Rukh Khan. Khan and Shankar have been in touch for some time and are working on the script and other details of the action thriller.

Shah Rukh, who is yet to sign on the dotted line, will like to start work on Shankar’s film after he completes Shirish Kunder’s untitled Sci-Fi film in which he plays the lead, possibly as a super hero.
A common thread between Shah Rukh and his new directors appears to be their love for FX.

Kunder is an FX aficionado having used it extensively with his directorial debut Janeman.

Shah Rukh, of course, happens to own India’s finest FX studios.

S Shankar, a reputed director of Tollywood, is known to use state of the art FX in his films.

Besides Sivaji, Shankar is well known for films such as Indian and Anniyan.
Shah Rukh will be next seen in Yash Raj Films Chak De which is set to hit theatres on 10 Aug 2007. The film is directed by Shimit Amin, who made the gripping crime thriller Ab Tak Chappan, starring Nana Patekar.

Shah Rukh’s home production Om Shanti Om, directed by business partner and choreographer Farah Khan, is slated for a Diwali release. In the film Shah Rukh is paired against debutant Deepika Padukone.
