It's been nine months since Zero released and Shah Rukh Khan hasn't signed any new film. Several reports have been making the rounds about the superstar working with Madhur Bhandarkar, Rajkumar Hirani and other filmmakers. Talking about the same, he earlier told Rajeev Masand, "I have not signed any film. I have been hearing a lot of stories actually not just for me, just for production and so on. I don't know myself, I wanted to do an action film, a fun film. But I have not given it a thought, I m ok actually."

Recently, there were reports making the rounds that Ali Abbas Zafar is planning to direct an action thriller starring Shah Rukh and Katrina Kaif in the leading roles. However, without mentioning the report, SRK has put the rumours to rest. He took to his Twitter page and wrote, "It’s always nice to know that in my absence & behind my back, I have surreptitiously signed so many films that even I am not aware of!! Boys & girls I do a film when I say I am doing it....otherwise, it’s just post-truth."

Earlier, talking about reports of SRK starring in Ali's film, a source told Pinkvilla, "Shah Rukh has signed a big actioner which will be directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. Shah Rukh wanted to take up an action-oriented subject as his next and he's finally got the perfect script. The film is going to be mounted on a giant scale and will be one of the biggest films to hit screens in 2020."

But this is nothing but a mere rumour!
