Maybe after six months, I would like to do comedy, a little gentle film,” SRK remarked during the podcast.
He also jokingly added that he’s waiting for someone to write a comedy film and offer it to him. SRK has previously shown his comedic chops in films like Baadshah, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Chennai Express, and Happy New Year, so fans are excited to see him return to this genre.
