Shah Rukh Khan's recent appearance at Mehboob Studios in Bandra has ignited speculation regarding a potential look test for an upcoming project. Reports suggested that the Bollywood icon was collaborating with filmmaker Shoojit Sircar for a new film. However, these rumors appear to be unfounded. A recent media report indicates that while SRK did indeed work with Shoojit, it was for a brand endorsement rather than a feature film. Further details are provided below.

Truth about Shah Rukh Khan-Shoojit Sircar's collaboration

According to a report from Mid-Day, Shah Rukh Khan filmed an advertisement for a well-known cookie brand, directed by Shoojit Sircar. A photograph of SRK donning an apron had previously gone viral on social media.

"The distinctiveness of Shah Rukh's appearance led many to believe it was a look test, sparking rumors about him starring in Shoojit's next feature. In reality, they collaborated on a cookie commercial that has a slice-of-life theme," a source informed the tabloid.

The report further states that SRK was actively engaged throughout the process, discussing intricate details with Sircar regarding the scenes. "He brought his signature charm to the project. The campaign is set to launch in two weeks," the source added. The advertisement shoot reportedly began in the afternoon on February 28 and concluded by night. For those unfamiliar, SRK and Shoojit have been acquainted since their days in Delhi.

Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming films

On the cinematic front, Shah Rukh Khan is set to appear in filmmaker Siddharth Anand's upcoming film, King, which was initially directed by Sujoy Ghosh. This project will also mark the big screen debut of SRK's daughter, Suhana Khan, who made her acting debut in the Netflix film The Archies in 2023. Additionally, he is expected to make a cameo in The Ba***ds of Bollywood, a series that will also feature his son Aryan Khan's directorial debut, which will soon be available on Netflix.

It is worth noting that SRK's most recent theatrical release was Dunki in 2023, where he starred alongside Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, and others.
