SRK’s dwarf character based on ‘Game Of Thrones’ Tyrion Lannister?

With Shah Rukh Khan set to play a dwarf in Aanand L Rai’s next film, rumours are rife that his character is based on Tyrion Lannister from ‘Game Of Thrones’.

DNA India reports that Khan has already shot for the part a couple of months ago. A source told the publication, “The source of Shah Rukh’s character is definitely on the lines of Tyrion Lannister, who is happy and always celebrating his life. Shah Rukh will play a happy dwarf, who brings families together.”

There have also been rumours about Khan playing a double role in the film, to which the source said, “While everyone knows that Shah Rukh is playing a dwarf in the film, only the unit and cast know that SRK actually has a double role in the movie. While one of them is a dwarf, the other is an average, regular kind of a common man and he is again played by Shah Rukh. The star will play his usual charming, romantic self in that role as we get to see him sing and dance. Both characters are completely different from each other, strongly performance-oriented and both the leading ladies get a chance to romance SRK. They have equal lengths in the films and hence they signed up for the film. Anushka will romance the normal guy while Katrina will romance the dwarf. It’s not an experimental film at all but about friendships and love. Shah Rukh has made a five-minute clip of the film and shown it to some of his close friends in B-Town and all have been raving about it.”
