Salman Khan may not be too happy after reading this. Even a certain Ranbir Kapoor may be a tad miffed and I am not sure of an Akshay Kumar. In what sounds like a block buster idea, the hottest Bollywood belle may fall into the lap of the King of Romance Mr. Shahrukh Khan.
Reportedly, film maker Vijay Singh is contemplating a period piece with the cast of SRK as the Awadh king and Katrina as the British lady. The film is titled The Opium Symphony and is loosely inspired from the pages of Whirlpool of Shadows penned by him.
Singh plans to cast SRK as the royal king Nawab Naseeruddin Haidar and Katrina as his lady love. Though, nothing has been finalised yet, Singh is keeping his fingers crossed. He cites with a tinge of excitement reminiscent of a runaway school boy, “I had met Shah Rukh regarding the movie and he had liked the idea. I am planning to approach him again for the role of the Nawab. He ruled Awadh from 1826-36 and fell in love with a British girl but their love did not suit the interest of opium traders at that time.”
Though, Singh was earlier intent on casting a Hollywood actress, now, he has his eyes on the Princess of Popcorn, the resplendent Katrina Kaif. It needs to be seen if SRK-Katrina pair shall come aboard or not…..
