Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone are currently one of the top pairs in Bollywood. Their on-screen presence is nothing short of magical. They first shared the screen in the film ‘Om Shanti Om,’ and their chemistry received rave reviews from fans. Following their initial success, they collaborated on several other projects, adding blockbusters like ‘Chennai Express’ to their filmography. This year marks the 11th anniversary of ‘Chennai Express,’ a significant milestone that the filmmakers and cast took a moment to celebrate.
Celebrating 11 Years of ‘Chennai Express’
Directed by Rohit Shetty, ‘Chennai Express’ is a delightful mix of comedy, action, and romance. The film was a box-office sensation, largely due to the undeniable chemistry between its leads, Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. To commemorate the occasion, Deepika recently shared a behind-the-scenes video on her Instagram, showcasing the fun, love, and a plethora of emotions experienced during the shooting of the film. More intriguingly, in this video, Shah Rukh Khan can be heard making a prediction about Deepika that has recently come to fruition, highlighting the deep-seated connections formed while filming.
The Prediction from 11 Years Ago
When ‘Chennai Express’ was being filmed 11 years ago, Shah Rukh Khan confidently predicted that Deepika Padukone would join Rohit Shetty’s cop universe. He expressed his belief that she would star in ‘Singham 5,’ a comment that has indeed materialized. The video shared by Deepika shows Shah Rukh striking the signature pose of the ‘Singham’ franchise, an action that has come full circle, as Deepika was later seen replicating the same gesture in the poster for ‘Singham Again.’
Deepika as Lady Singham
Excitingly, this prediction is about to become a reality as Rohit Shetty is currently working on ‘Singham Again,’ the fifth installment in the cop universe. In this highly anticipated film, Deepika Padukone will portray a character named Shakti Shetty. Interestingly, it appears that the groundwork for ‘Singham Again’ was laid by Rohit Shetty a decade ago. The behind-the-scenes video not only evokes nostalgia but also offers glimpses of memorable moments shared on set.
Release Details for ‘Singham Again’
Following the successes of ‘Singham Returns,’ ‘Simmba,’ and ‘Sooryavanshi,’ the fifth film, ‘Singham Again,’ is set to hit theaters this year. In addition to Deepika Padukone, the film boasts a star-studded cast featuring Ranveer Singh, Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Akshay Kumar, and Arjun Kapoor. Scheduled for release around Diwali, ‘Singham Again’ promises to deliver another action-packed, entertaining experience for audiences.
