Shha Rukh Khan's hockey film Chak De India is again in the news. Firstly, because it completed 10 years recently and secondly, because Akshay Kumar starrer Gold based on hockey, is to hit the screens soon. The film gave the nation a new perspective on the game, tbh. All thanks to SRK's stellar performance and director Shimit Amin's execution. Now, if we go by the reports in Mid-day, the duo is reuniting for another film, apparently a period drama! In fact, the movie might also have another dimpled boy of Bollywood, Ayushmann Khurrana. Can you imagine both the charming actors in one frame?

"Last year when Chak De! India clocked a decade, Shah Rukh reconnected with Shimit. It was then that the latter discussed a concept he had in mind for Khan. The superstar liked it and asked him to work on it further. When Shah Rukh returned to Mumbai last week after wrapping up Zero's US schedule, the two met again to discuss the progress on the script. Shah Rukh is keen on the project and is likely to produce it as well, " a source told the tabloid.

This will be after a long time that we will see King Khan in a period drama and it will be fun to watch them. The source further added, "He wants the film to be a departure from his romantic hero image. It will also feature a younger hero as a parallel lead. Though Ayushmann Khurrana is said to be in talks, the final casting call will be taken only after SRK comes on board." On the other hand, Shah Rukh Khan is all geared up for Aanand L Rai directed Zero. There have been no confirmation on the reports yet.
