SRK to play Gujarati don in Farhan Akhtar’s next?

With plans for ‘Don 3’ currently on the backburner, Shah Rukh Khan is reportedly set to play a Gujarati don in Farhan Akhtar’s next film under Excel Entertainment, with Ritesh Sidhwani.

Sidhwani confirmed the developments to Mid-Day, “SRK is doing the film. We are not sure when it will go on floors exactly but it will be next year. Shah Rukh is excited about the film but we need to work out the schedule as he has prior commitments.”

Talking about ‘Don 3’, Sidhwani told the publication, “With a franchise like ‘Don’ and the character, its important to get excited by the script. Neither Shah Rukh, nor Farhan or me wants to get into making a film because there is excitement about it.

He also confirmed that ‘Fukrey 2’ and ‘Rock On 2’ were in the pipeline too.
