Shah Rukh Khan’s YRF 50th birthday project postponed?

Yash Raj Films’ mystery project marking 50 years in the industry may have been put on hold. The announcement for what is being touted as ‘YRF Project 50’ was supposed to happen in April along with a slate of other films, but YRF may be changing plans due to the current uncertainty surrounding the pandemic.

Revealing more about the production starring Shah Rukh Khan, a source told Bollywood Hungama, “It’s a big scale action film, which was to be shot across the globe, and Siddharth Anand was planning to go on a recce to explore several virgin locations. However, he has dropped the plan now owing to the travel ban, and will go on a recce only once everything settles down.”, adding that work on the script and pre-production discussions are still ongoing.

“The idea was for SRK to shoot for two films this year – the Siddharth Anand actioner and Rajkumar Hirani’s feel good drama. But it is all a wait and watch scenario and there lies a strong possibility of his comeback film post ‘Zero’ (2018) getting delayed further,” the source shared.
