Shahrukh takes up a sci-fi thriller

If Mani Ratnam is making Ravan for his favourite actor Abhishek Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan is making Ra.1 for his favourite actor, himself.

The computer savvy Shahrukh Khan has come up with this unique title for the hi-tech sci-fi film which Anubhav Sinha will be directing.

Though Sinha refuses to comment on the project, a source says, "In fact Shahrukh is taking very very keen interest in the scripting of Ra.1. And director Anubhav Sinha would like Shahrukh to be credited as a screenwriter for the project, if and when SRK's production house Red Chillies actually sets down to make this ambitious sci-fi thriller."
