Shah Rukh Khan is a marketing genius, isn't he? Like he always finds the best possible options to promote his ventures - be it as an actor or a producer. While the actor in him has taken a sabbatical of some sorts, the producer is out there encouraging and pushing scripts that he thinks are simply brilliant. After Emraan Hashmi's Bard of Blood that released on Netflix in 2019, SRK's Red Chillies Entertainment is back with its second OTT outing, Betaal. Starring Viineet Kumar and Aahana Kumra, it's a zombie-horror series and hence this new challenge for you. Betaal Trailer: This Shah Rukh Khan’s Netflix Series Starring Viineet Kumar and Aahana Kumra Is a Gore-Fest That Will Chill You To Bone, Flesh and Beyond (Watch Trailer).

Shah Rukh earlier took to his Twitter account to announce a competition for all the budding filmmakers that are currently observing lockdown like the rest of us. The rules for the competition are pretty simple. You have to make a scary indoor movie with an element of horror to it and you can choose any camera available with you. It has to have a prop that can be used spookily but has to be readily available at home. And lastly, it can be a solo project or you can choose multiple people provided you follow the social distancing guidelines, 'cos well, coronavirus. Did Shah Rukh Khan Just Confirm His Movie with Rajkumar Hirani During His #AskSRK Session?
