Shahrukh Khan may not be a living legend but he is certainly one of the most loved Indian actors ever. He has done the typical Hindi movies, romantic comedies, action movies, beautiful movies like Paheli and Swades and he has hosted KBC. People are asking now what Shahrukh is up to. Whats next? How he is going to continue his role as an entertainer in our daily lives?

He is getting older but thank god Bollywood is evolved and now there are lots of opportunities and fresh characters for every one. But apparently Shahrukh has his eyes on a different field. He wants to produce a film with amazing special effects. FX as he likes to call it, is the new challenge that Shahrukh has created for himself. In a recent interview with Subhash K. Jha, Shahrukh said:

I want to take time off with my kids, and also work on a project that’s very precious to me. I want our production company to become truly FX-savvy.

…When I am asked what next, then I guess this is what I want to do next. This is where my heart is at the moment. I want our FX to be comparable with the best in the world. Dhoom 2 and Don got it right. I want to take the optical illusions even further.

… I want to spend the next three months honing up the F-X in our production house. Have you seen films like 300 ? That’s the level of special effects we should be aiming at. And I’m going to go for it

Shahrukh Khan has some great movies. Yash Raj film’s Chak De India and Farah Khan’s Om Shanti Om. Talking about Om Shanti Om Shahrukh said:

…I don’t want to be in the so-called offbeat films. I’d rather do my enjoyable stuff. Farah’s film Om Shanti Om which I’m now shooting is again a lot of fun.
