SRK to adapt a play for his next!

The Bollywood badshaah is all set to produce a film, to be directed by radio and television host Roshan Abbas. The film is an adaptation of a play Roshan had written and directed in 1999 called Graffiti about life at high school.

Roshan informs a daily, "SRK is just producing the film. My film stars four fresh new faces, one among them is Zoa (daughter of Karim Morani) who is making her debut with this film. We are still finalising some of the cast members and as of now have some known names too like Archana Puran Singh, Satish Shah etc. playing vital roles."

Talking about what the film will be based on, he said, "The film is an adaptation of a play I had written and directed way back in 1999 called `Graffiti` about life at high school. That play was set in '99 and this film is set in 2009 so it's but obvious that I would be having some elements which the youth of today connect with one of them being social networking sites such as Facebook. However, beyond that there is no real connection. The film is set in a high school and will try to capture the various emotions such as love, jealousy, pride that one goes through during school days. I believe some of the best days of our life are the ones that we spend in high school and it is this period of one`s life that the film will portray."

SRK's last production venture was Billu, which starred Irrfan Khan and Lara Dutta.

Being SRK: The ultimate reality TV show

It's a job most Indians would die for — shadowing Shah Rukh Khan wherever he goes. For the last two months, that's exactly what a TV crew has been doing, following the country's biggest star from South Africa to America to London to Mumbai — all for the making of a unique six-part series on the actor, to be telecast on lifestyle channel Discovery Travel & Living. "It's an inner world-outer world kind of documentary," said Khan, speaking exclusively to HT. "Hopefully, the parts that people will get to see of me — at work and at other places — will shed some light on how films and film stars work and offer an insight into how I do things." Khan said he has got to know the crew quite well ("They have been very unobtrusive"). For Discovery Travel & Living, this series will be one of the biggest global productions to come out of India and will be shown all over the world. "We haven't yet decided when we're going to telec...
