Shah Rukh Will Not See Amitabh While Filming

Shah Rukh will not see rival Amitabh Bachchan while filming Ravi Chopra’s film Bhootnath. Amitabh will be playing the part of a ghost, so Shah Rukh will not even have to interact with him directly. This was a conscious effort on the part of the production company to make sure the rivalry doesn’t further and advance. Shooting will have to wait until Abhishek Bachchan’s wedding is complete. A source said that:
Mr. Bachchan will not shoot for a month as he is busy with the wedding preparations. But that won’t cause any delay. We will shoot in back-to-back schedules, in June and July.
At least their lack of friendship hasn’t affected the fact that Shah Rukh and Amitabh are making movies, i think it was a smart move on the part of both actors and the production company to make sure nothing goes awry.

It is a known fact that despite of being projected as an Amitabh film, Shah Rukh Khan has an equally strong role, in terms of length and prominence. And that’s the real reason for the film’s delay.
