In an interview with News18, Vishal Bhardwaj recalled how once he came really close to working with Shah Rukh Khan. “"At one point, we came very close to doing a film. It was announced also and we were going to shoot but somehow it didn’t happen." He went on to add that hopefully now that he has shot cameo with the star, he is hopeful that a movie with him is on the cards soon too. "Whenever we meet, humesha yeh rehta hai ke kab hona hai. Ab wo waqt aa raha hai. Cameo toh ho hi gaya hai indirect toh film bhi iss baar honi chahiye. Andar se mujhe bhi feeling aa rahi hai. Shah Rukh ne bhi mujhe bola hai ke iss baar mujhe kuch lag raha hai ke hum log kuch kar payenge saath mein (We always think about when it will happen. When the time will come. Now that an indirect cameo has been done, film should be done too. I have that feeling. Even Shah Rukh agreed and told me that this time I think we can do something together).”

 

For the unversed, Shah Rukh Khan and Vishal Bhardwaj were expected to work together in the adaptation of Chetan Bhagat’s novel 2 States but it failed to materialize. It was eventually produced by Nadiadwala and Dharma with Abhishek Varman as the director and Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor in the lead.

 

On the other hand, talking about Khufiya, the film also starring Ali Fazal, Waqima Gabbi in lead roles, is slated for digital release on October 5. The film was announced during the Tudum campaign kicked off by Netflix.
