Karan Johar for My Name Is Khan

These days ace film maker Karan Johar is busy with his dream project My Name Is Khan. In the movie Slumdog kid Tanay Chedda is playing SRK's childhood role.
Karan Johar said about Tanay's role, "Tanay is exceptionally talented. He was able to imbibe Shah Rukh's character traits and use them to make SRK's childhood look convincing."

The film is set in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Two of the most expensive cities in the US for shooting.

Karan shot in LA earlier this year. He leaves for San Francisco in May for a 40-day schedule. The first and last Hindi film to be shot in San Francisco was Imtiaz Ali's Love Aaj Kal.

The director now intends to cast Tanay as junior SRK whenever required, much in the way that Master Mayur played the young Amitabh Bachchan in a series of films
