Special credit for a special connect

Arjun Kapoor’s upcoming movie India’s Most Wanted, directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, hit screens today. 

The film follows the story of a team of operatives, who apprehended the terrorist known as India’s Osama. With the release of the film, we hear that Shah Rukh Khan has a rather interesting connect with the film. 

Also, the makers of the film have even mentioned the actor in the credits of the film with a special vote of thanks. Talking about the reason for giving credits to SRK, director Raj Kumar says, “Shah Rukh was an alias that Yasin Bhatkal used while travelling abroad, and it was because of him and his use of the name Shah Rukh why the real Shah Rukh Khan had been stopped at the immigration desk twice while visiting America.”

Raj Kumar further adds, “We approached Shah Rukh sir with this idea of using his name, and he was fine with it. He willingly gave us permission to go ahead with this, and that is why we have a special vote of thanks for him in the credits.” Reportedly, Yasin Bhatkal apparently used the name Shah Rukh since he was a fan of the actor. Arjun Kapoor, who plays an intelligence officer in the film, had earlier said, “It is a scary and real story. It will be fascinating for audience to see it because when I heard about it, it left me in shock. Also, it made me feel proud to be an Indian. It is a film that will bring out your patriotic side.”
