Shah Rukh Khan is going to rule 2023 with not one but three films. The superstar will start the year with a bang with Pathaan, followed by Jawan and finally Dunki at the end of the year. Now, that he is all ready to storm the screens after 2018, the actor said that he wants to play all kinds of characters saying that he is Batman at night, Superman in the morning and Spider-Man in the afternoon. He also said that after Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki he would like to do a film like Leon: The Professional or a film where he gets to play the role of an older and a quieter guy.
During an interview with Scoop with Raya, SRK spoke about the kind of films he want to and said, “After this, I want to do a film like Leon: The Professional. Not Leon, but a film like where I am an older, quiet guy, very intense with a grey beard & grey hair. I don’t know. I am very playful about it. I don’t take the characters and roles that I do. I just want to tell a story somebody has the desire to tell. And I want to tell it to the best of my capabilities. So, if a director has a story and says this is what we love, I will say, I also love it. Now let me try and make it the best that I can for you. So, I enjoy it. I am Batman at night, Superman in the morning & Spider-Man in the afternoon. So, I just want to play all kinds of characters.”
Shah Rukh is paired opposite Deepika Padukone in Pathaan. John Abraham plays the antagonist in the film. In Jawan he will be seen opposite Nayanthara with Vijay Sethupathi as the antagonist.
