The stars just keep coming for Rakesh Roshan’s Krrish 2! After roping in Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra, the movie director has now managed to convince none other than Shahrukh Khan to play the role of a villain in the highly anticipated sequel.
According to Mid Day, Rakesh Roshan, who has worked with King Khan in movies like King Uncle and Koyla, wants to recreate his son’s and SRK’s chemistry from movies like Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham and is hoping that the star will soon finalize the plans to join the Krrish cast.
Apart from Priyanka and Hrithik, Rekha will portray Krishna’s grandmother Sonia Mehra and Riya Sen will play the villain’s girlfriend, and it looks like the villain could be Shahrukh! According to the buzz out of B-town, PC will once again play a journalist named Priya. Rumors had it that Deepika Padukone would replace Priyanka in the role of Priya but the actress will come back to the set of Krrish once again.
Krrish was a follow-up to the 2003 movie Koi… Mil Gaya. It told the story of Krishna, a boy with superpowers that he had inherited from his dad. He falls in love with Priya and follows her to Singapore where he tries to keep his identity unknown. The superhero soon goes on a mission to save the world from the wicked Dr. Siddhant who has invented a machine that can see into the future.
After the success of Krrish in 2006, director Rakesh Roshan promised fans that a sequel would come out after he was done shooting Kites with Hrithik. Krrish 2 will reportedly tell the story of Krrish saving the Seven Wonders of the World, but the sequel was put on hold for a long time. Source
