Shahrukh Khan to play a terrorist on screen

Shahrukh Khan and Karan Johar have given Bollywood some big romantic blockbusters but this time around the two will team up for a non romantic no song movie. The movie which is likely to be titled as Khan was initially titled My Name Is Khan. It will talk about the condition of the Muslims post 9/11. It will also star Kajol opposite Shahrukh after a gap of 7 years.

It is reported that Shahrukh had been waiting to play a terrorist on screen but was never offered this role by any filmmaker. The movie will highlight problems being faced by Muslims post the 9/11 attack. Shahrukh had himself faced discrimination at an international airport when his luggage had to undergo extra checking when the security person got suspicious seeing his surname.

Johar is reluctant to disclose details about the project but said that terrorism is one subject in our life which cannot be ignored anymore. Karan added that dealing with the subject will be a challenge. Khan which hits the theatres in 2009 will be a healthy break from family dramas for Johar.
