After reigning over Bollywood for the past 15 years, the King Khan is eyeing a different territory for conquest. Shah Rukh Khan’s seeming popularity in the Middle East has sprouted a desire in the superstar to act in the Arab movies as well.
SRK is currently in Dubai for the 3rd Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF) where he has been invited among a few selected Bollywood artists. He was honoured by DIFF at the festival for his immense contribution to cinema of India in particular.
Coming back to SRK’s Dubai aspirations, the actor is open to be a part of any Arab film project if and when he’s desired by nay of their film-makers. “It would be a different experience for me to work in an Arab film. And to any such offer from an Arab film-maker, I would say Assalamu Alaikum, without a second thought,” said Shah Rukh.
SRK was bowled over by the splendid city of Dubai and its hospitality to the Indian film fraternity. He considers Dubai as his second home and is in an awe of this magnificently growing capital. Dubai film festival showcases both the Arab and international talent and is one of the topmost festivals within a span of three years’ time. No wonder, Shah Rukh wants to be a part of this legacy.
