It�۪s no big secret that Shah Rukh Khan has a good relationship with Imagine’s Sameer Nair, from his days at Star Plus for ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’. A source said, “When Sameer approached him for the show, Shah Rukh Khan promptly agreed. The actor agreed to do the show because his kids love it. And they watch the international version of the show. It is an adventure show with loads of action and comedy. And one will get to see the comic side of SRK on the show.”

If true then Shah Rukh is expected to shoot the initial promos of the show, which will air from next month.
