Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma are playing the leads in one of 2018's biggest Bollywood movies, Zero. Directed by Tanu Weds Manu and Raanjhanaa fame Aanand L Rai, the movie marks Shah Rukh Khan's first big screen outing in 2018. He is playing a vertically challenged man, finds himself entangled in an intriguing love triangle with a scientist suffering from cerebral palsy and an alcoholic actress. While Anushka plays the scientist, Katrina plays the actress in Zero. Zero Trailer: Shah Rukh Khan as Bauua Singh Spells Magic But Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma Steal The Show Too - Watch Video.
The trailer of Zero has landed and it packs a lot in its 3.14 minute long runtime. Shah Rukh Khan looks believable as a dwarf, however, we can sense the VFX at times. However, the dialogues sparkle and so does the music. More than SRK, it is Anushka and Katrina's characters that manage to grab our attention. While rewatching the trailer many a time, I could also see that Zero has taken influences from quite a few Shah Rukh Khan movies. Like these five below -
FAN
Doesn't that first scene in the promo remind you of this iconic tease from FAN? Only in Zero's case, it is just a large collage of eligible brides for Shaadi.com.
Chennai Express
In Chennai Express, SRK's character keeps saying that he is 40 years of age. Here's he is two years less, that is 38yo. And like CE's Rahul, even Bauua is a complete chichora! Not to mention, seeing Anushka in a South Indian bridal dress.
Jab Tak Hai Jaan
That kiss with Katrina Kaif is reminiscent of their own kisses in the late Yash Chopra's Jab Tak Hai Jaan. Not to mention the lead trio of that film reuniting here!
Om Shanti Om
Shah Rukh Khan being a fan-boy of an actress gives us Om Shanti Om vibes!
Swades
SRK returns to NASA after Swades to reach for the moon this time!
ICYMI, here's the trailer of Zero -
Zero also stars Tigmanshu Dhulia, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub and Brijendra Kala. The movie is all set to release on December 21.
