As per reports stated by many news portals, it was believed that Tanu Weds Manu Returns director has roped in Shah Rukh Khan for his next, but now Aanand L Rai has claimed that they are just rumors and untrue.
Buzz was that Salman Khan was approached for Rai’s film, where he’ll portray the character of a dwarf but the idea didn’t go well with Khan & the director approached the ‘Happy New Year‘ actor as his second choice.

But now the director himself came forward to out the rumours to rest and told Deccan Chronicle – “I’m really amused by the rumours, since people seem to know more about my film than I do. I’m still working on the script and funnily enough, several have already started speculating about the cast and the title. I request people to stop jumping to conclusions and allow me to make an official announcement on the film, which we will make as soon as we finalize all the details.”
