Filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh has made a significant shift in his career, stepping away from the much-anticipated film ‘King’ starring Shah Rukh Khan and his daughter Suhana Khan. While reports had long suggested that Ghosh would be directing the film, the reins of direction have now been handed over to Siddharth Anand, the director behind Pathaan and Fighter. This change in direction has freed up Ghosh’s schedule, allowing him to focus on his next big project.
Thriller Collaboration with Shahid Kapoor
After leaving the ‘King’ project, Ghosh is reportedly in talks with Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor for a potential thriller film. The two were originally set to collaborate in 2021, but the project had to be postponed due to scheduling conflicts. However, they are now revisiting the idea with plans to kickstart production in 2025. The film, which will be Ghosh’s first collaboration with Kapoor, is expected to showcase the director’s signature blend of suspense, mystery, and drama.
Script Ready for the Thriller
According to sources, Sujoy Ghosh has already completed the script for the film, though plot details are being kept under wraps. Known for his work in critically acclaimed films like Kahaani (2012) and Badla (2019), Ghosh is expected to deliver a gripping narrative that will keep audiences on the edge of their seats.
A New Chapter for Sujoy and Shahid
This upcoming project marks an exciting chapter in both Ghosh’s and Kapoor’s careers. While it’s still awaiting official confirmation, fans are already buzzing with anticipation, especially considering Shahid’s knack for intense roles. It will be interesting to see how Ghosh’s thriller takes shape with Shahid Kapoor leading the cast.
