Shahrukh
Khan
Was
Not
The
First
Choice
For
Zero
Katrina
was
quoted
as
saying
to
the
tabloid,
"Initially,
I
was
supposed
to
play
myself
in
Zero.
The
film
was
titled
Katrina
Meri
Jaan."
The
Superstar's
Entry
Brought
A
Major
Plot
Change
She
further
added,
"There
was
a
different
cast
on
board
and
Shahrukh
sir
wasn't
part
of
it.
Now,
it's
a
satirical
take
on
an
actress."
She
Is
Very
Fond
Of
King
Khan
The
actress
revealed,
"Shah
Rukh
sir
is
one
of
the
best
actors
in
the
industry.
His
drive,
energy
and
passion
are
commendable.
It's
great
to
be
around
him
on
a
set."
What
Had
Made
Her
Take
Up
This
Project?
Katrina
was
earlier
quoted
as
saying
to
a
daily,
"It
wasn't
about
the
space
or
the
VFX.
Honestly,
Aanand
sir
has
been
discussing
this
film
with
me
for
the
last
two
years."
Shahrukh
Khan
Is
The
USP
Of
Zero
Recently,
in
an
IANS
interview
Rai
had
revealed,
"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."
Here's
Why
He
Chose
Shahrukh
To
Play
The
Main
Protagonist
"I
needed
a
big
star
and
even
if
you
cut
two
feet
away
from
Khan
saab,
he'd
still
stand
tall.
Also,
this
story
has
a
wide
reach
and
he
will
take
it
to
the
world."
