Siddharth Anand To Direct SRK In King

‘I
will
be
shooting

King
for
a
couple
of
months.’
‘My
director
Siddharth
Anand
is
very
strict.
He
has
asked
me
not
to
reveal
what
we
are
doing.’

Bollywood
superstar
Shah
Rukh
Khan
is
currently
working
on
his
new
film

King.

The
film
will
see
SRK
reunited
with
Siddharth
Anand
who
directed
his
comeback
blockbuster

Pathaan.

“I
will
be
shooting

King
for
a
couple
of
months.
My
director
Siddharth
Anand
is
very
strict.
He
has
asked
me
not
to
reveal
what
we
are
doing.
I
can’t
tell
you
but
I
can
assure
you
that
it
will
be
entertaining.
You
will
enjoy
it,”
SRK
said
att
the
Global
Freight
Summit
in
Dubai.

Earlier,
Sujoy
Ghosh
was
supposed
to
direct

King,
which
also
reportedly
stars
Suhana
Khan
and
Abhishek
Bachchan.

Urging
people
to
introspect
rather
than
dwell
on
their
failures,
SRK
advised,
“When
you
fail,
you
should
not
believe
that
your
product
or
service
or
job
went
wrong.
Maybe
you
just
misunderstood
the
ecosystem
you
were
working
in.
You
have
to
understand
how
people
are
reacting.
If
I
cannot
elicit
an
emotion
from
the
people
I
cater
to,
then
my
product
is
not
going
to
work
how
wonderful
it
may
be.”

When
asked
if
he
is
critical
about
his
work
sometimes,
Shah
Rukh
candidly
admitted,
“Yes,
I
am.
I
hate
feeling
this
way,
and
I
cry
a
lot
in
my
bathroom.
I
don’t
show
it
to
anyone.
You
must
believe
that
the
world
is
not
against
you.
If
your
film
did
go
wrong,
it’s
not
because
of
you
or
some
conspiracy.
You
have
to
accept
that
you
made
it
badly,
and
then
you
have
to
move
on.”

“There
are
moments
of
despair,
but
there
are
moments
which
say,
‘Shut
up,
get
up
and
get
on
with
it’.
You
have
to
do
it
because
the
world
is
not
against
you.
You
should
not
believe
that
things
are
going
wrong
only
for
you.

“Life
moves
on.
Life
does
what
it
does.
You
cannot
start
blaming
life
for
what
it
does.”
