Anand
L
Rai
is
one
talented
director.
He
is
famous
for
his
'hatke'
films
like
Tanu
Weds
Manu
and
Raanjhanaa.
But
it
is
his
upcoming
movie
with
superstar
Shahrukh
Khan
that
the
filmmaker
calls
his
biggest
project
till
date.
"Film
with
Khan
saab
is
my
most
ambitious
project
because
he
is
the
main
casting
of
the
film.
I
don't
think
there
is
anyone
who
can
play
the
character
better
than
him.
I
am
fortunate
I
got
Shah
Rukh
Khan
for
this
film,"
Rai
told
PTI
in
an
interview.
"After
meeting
him,
I
realised
he
is
such
a
large-hearted
man.
For
me,
as
a
director,
that
actor
becomes
very
important
who
can
understand
other
human
beings
and
Shah
Rukh
has
great
understanding
of
people."
Rai
is
currently
working
on
the
script
and
hopes
to
start
the
film
by
the
end
of
the
year.
"Right
now
the
work
is
going
on
the
story.
I
am
totally
in
sync
with
Khaan
saab,
we
are
in
touch.
I
am
writing
a
story
which
we
all
should
be
proud
of.
We
hope
to
start
the
film
by
the
end
of
the
year."
Shah
Rukh
will
be
seen
playing
a
dwarf
in
the
movie,
but
the
filmmaker
says
there's
more
to
his
character
than
being
a
short
man.
"I
am
taking
my
time
on
the
story...
Of
course,
there
is
something...
(The
news
of
Shah
Rukh
playing
a
dwarf).
It
is
there
but
this
aspect
also
has
a
lot
of
details
which
I
don't
want
to
reveal
right
now.
"People
are
thinking
it
is
a
film
about
a
short
man
but
I
will
say
it
has
a
very
tall
story.
It
is
a
challenging,
entertaining
story.
As
an
actor,
it
is
a
challenging
role
for
him.
As
a
maker,
it
is
an
important
film
for
me.
It
will
be
fun
raising
the
bar
and
when
you
finally
get
Shah
Rukh
Khan,
you
wouldn't
want
to
lose
the
opportunity.
