Shah Rukh is all set to bring his film of the year, Zero. Yes, that’s King Khan’s upcoming film which is ready for worldwide release on December 21. Zero directed by Anand L. Rai has been 2018’s most anticipated movies at the box office, and obviously, fans have huge expectations from it. It boasts of a stellar cast, including leading roles, supporting cast and special appearances. Apart from Shah Rukh Khan, Zero is headlined by Bollywood’s A-listed actresses, Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif. We have seen the trio make a huge impact with their characters – Bauua Singh (SRK), Aafia Yusufzai Bhinder (Anushka) and Babita Kumari (Katrina Kaif). But what about others in this highly-ambitious film of King Khan. Well, it is time to take a quick look at Zero movie’s full cast and know who is playing who in this romantic-drama. Zero Movie: Review, Box Office Collection, Budget, Story, Trailer, Music of Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif, Anushka Sharma's Film.
We got to start with Shah Rukh Khan as cute Bauua Singh. You must be well aware of the fact that Bauua is a vertically challenged dude hailing from Meerut. He is also middle-aged, 38 to be precise and a bachelor eager to get married. From the trailer, songs, and dialogue promos, one thing is for sure, Bauua is smart, funny, ambitious and he does not need anybody’s sympathy. We love Bauua already, Mr Khan.

Unlike other male superstars’ movies, ladies are not reduced to roles of glam dolls or set props in Shah Rukh Khan films. No, we are not praising the 53-year-old actor for being different but glad he is making efforts to break the industry’s norm. So, coming to Anushka and Katrina’s roles, the former plays the character of Aafia Yusufzai Bhinder, a NASA scientist with cerebral palsy. From the trailer and song “Mere Naam Tu,” we know Bauua and Aafia fall for each other and almost get married till Katrina’s Babita makes a dramatic entry in Meerut loverboy’s life. Now, Katrina is playing the role of Babita Kumar, a female superstar who is struggling with alcoholism. Kat plays a feisty, insecure, wild yet not-seeking-pity character like we have seen in two songs, "Husn Parcham" and newly-released "Heer Badnaam."

We have to talk about the super-strong supporting cast of Zero movie. Oh boy, it has the presence of acting powerhouses of Bollywood in the form of Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub as Guddu Singh. Ayyub plays the role of Bauua’s best friend and confidante. We had seen Ayyub and Shah Rukh as childhood buddies in crime-drama Raees, and now we will see their camaraderie in fun-drama, Zero. One more actor from Raees cast who is present in Zero is Sheeba Chaddha. The versatile actress will once again be portraying the role of Shah Rukh’s mother in Zero. As for Bauua Singh’s father, it is director-actor Tigmanshu Dhulia is already winning our hearts. We also have talented Brijendra Kala as marriage alliance officer helping Bauua find his match and get married.

That was everyone from Shah Rukh’s Bauua’s family and friends, let us know a little bit about Katrina’s Babita Kumari’s universe. Thanks to the new Zero song, "Heer Badnaam," we saw the handsome and talented Abhay Deol as Babita’s love interest. Some role reversal in Bollywood, because we are used to ‘love interest’ phrase referring to a female actor’s character in a film. Coming back to Abhay’s character, god he looks very hot in the song, and we want to see more of him. Zero also boasts of R Madhavan, the hero of Anand L. Rai’s Tanu Weds Manu and Tanu Weds Manu Returns. While we are yet to know about his role, we are sure it would add more power to already-exciting plot of Zero. Interestingly, we are yet not said anything about Anushka Sharma’s Aafia’s family or friends. The makers are saving it for the big release.

Special Appearances
BTW, if you thought the protagonists and supporting cast was enough, the makers have a strong line-up of special appearances to blow audiences’ minds away. First up is Salman Khan. Shah Rukh and Sultan of Bollywood box office have already charmed audiences with their bromance in “Issaqbaazi,” song by Sukhwinder Singh and Divya Kumar. We also saw ace choreographers, Ganesh Acharya and Remo D'Souza shaking a leg with Bauua Singh.

Despite Salman’s presence in Zero, he is not the biggest star attraction. So, who is it? Well, it is none other than late actress Sridevi. The evergreen legend who passed away earlier this year on February 24 had shot for the film before we lost her to freak accidental drowning incident. Zero is going to be Sridevi’s last movie, and fans cannot wait to see the beautiful star for one last time on the silver screen.

Juhi Chawla
Deepika Padukone
Apart from Salman Khan and Sridevi, we will also see biggies such as Kajol, Alia Bhatt, Karisma Kapoor, Rani Mukerji and Juhi Chawla in the film. Shah Rukh Khan’s absolute favourite co-star and Bollywood’s reigning queen, Deepika Padukone is also in the film. Yes, yes, and I am praying hard to see Deepika and Katrina Kaif share the screen more than Deepika and SRK together! Zero has all the potential and ammo to become hero upon release.
