Anurag Kashyap is currently seen in the film Haddi where he is essaying the role of an antagonist. The filmmaker and actor recently talked about why his dream of working with Shah Rukh Khan will always remain a dream. 

In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Anurag Kashyap opened up on why he can never work with Shah Rukh Khan and said, “His persona is so big. Woh mere liye Bombay Velvet naa hojaye. Mein drown ho jaunga uske andar. Woh bohot mushkil kaam hai. Woh sapna hai, bas sapna hi rahega. Waha nahi poch sakta mein. (I hope it doesn’t end up like Bombay Velvet. I’ll drown myself in it. So, it’s a difficult thing. It’s a dream and it’ll always be a dream. I can’t reach there).” 

He further revealed that he tried reaching out to Shah Rukh Khan but it didn’t happen and said, “Ki hai maine. Ek do baar koshish ki hai maine. Nahi hua. (I have tried. I tried reaching out once or twice. But it didn’t happen) See, he is Shah Rukh Khan. He is King Khan. He’s a big mainstream actor. My problem is not with him at all. His fans have an expectation. Like Ranveer (Singh) fans had expectations. These stars have come with fan following and the fan following is what I’m scared of because the fan-followings cancel you.” 

He added, “I am constantly trying to do something new. The larger the fan base you have, it doesn’t want to do something new. So, I don’t want to become the catalyst for them to either cancel. I’ll get canceled first. So, I would rather stay away from it.”

Shah Rukh Khan is currently enjoying the success of his latest release Jawan. The film also stars Nayanthara and Vijay Sethupathi along with Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, and others in key roles. Helmed by Atlee and produced by Gauri Khan under the banner Red Chilies Entertainment and co-produced by Gaurav Verma, the movie has collected over Rs 600 crore in just 8 days worldwide at the box office. 

Helmed by Akshat Ajay Sharma, Haddi stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayub, Ila Arun, and Anurag Kashyap along with others. Meanwhile, Anurag Kashyap is also awaiting the release of his upcoming directorial Kennedy starring Sunny Leone.
