Director
Aanand
L
Rai,
who
unveiled
the
title
of
his
Shahrukh
Khan
starrer
,
says
their
film
Zero
celebrates
the
incompleteness
in
people.
SRK
will
be
seen
in
an
unusual
avatar
-
that
of
a
dwarf
in
the
movie.
"I
wanted
to
celebrate
'Zero',
I
wanted
to
celebrate
the
incompleteness
in
people.
There
is
nothing
great
in
being
a
complete
person.
There
is
a
beauty
to
incompleteness.
We
all
are
humans
and
'Zero' comes
from
there,"
Rai
says
in
an
interview
with
PTI.
The
actor
and
the
director
yesterday
took
to
the
social
media
to
give
a
sneak
peak
into
the
movie.
Rai
says
they
are
still
in
the
middle
of
making
the
film
but
decided
to
unveil
the
title
on
popular
demand
as
there
was
a
lot
of
curiosity
surrounding
Shahrukh's
role.
"Though
we
are
one
year
away
from
the
release,
the
film
is
already
getting
so
much
love.
So
Khan
sahab
and
I
decided
to
give
something
to
fans.
It
is
purely
out
of
the
love
and
affection
that
we
are
getting
from
the
fans."
"They
(fans)
are
carrying
an
image
in
their
mind
and
it
is
not
exactly
what
we
have
in
the
film.
When
we
were
working
on
it
we
did
not
know
it
(dwarf
part)
will
look
this
way.
I
want
to
replace
that
image
with
the
right
image.
The
film's
USP
is
Shah
Rukh's
performance,"
he
says.
The
film
is
set
to
be
released
on
December
21
this
year.
Rai
promised
that
they
will
keep
sharing
details
about
the
film
at
regular
intervals.
"There
should
be
a
synergy
between
the
makers
and
the
audience.
I
don't
want
to
create
a
gap.
I
need
encouragement
from
the
audience
as
you
feel
positive
at
work.
It
is
very
hectic
but
it
is
keeping
us
happy."
The
teaser
starts
with
adjectives
like
'Paagal'
(mad),
'Aashiq',
'Makaar'
(schemer),
'Shayar'
(poet),
which
hints
at
the
various
shades
of
SRK's
part
in
the
movie.
Rai
says
Shahrukh
is
a
'sure' actor
and
likes
to
keep
things
on
edge.
"I
think
I
can
do
something
like
this
only
with
a
great
actor
like
Shahrukh.
He
is
a
very
sure
actor,
he
knows
what
he
is
doing
and
getting
into.
He
has
got
a
maker
in
him
and
likes
to
put
things
on
edge
and
this
is
a
brilliant
thing.
"I
can
ask
for
anything
from
this
actor.
With
words
like
'pagal',
'shayar'
and
'aashiq'..
I
think
this
is
how
we
are
in
real
life,
a
combination
of
different
emotions."
The
film
also
stars
Anushka
Sharma
and
Katrina
Kaif.
