‘If Shah Rukh Khan wants to be in this show, we will go film again’: Ms Marvel producer

Marvel Cinematic Universe is expanding as one more title is set to be a part of the franchise. Ms Marvel, the seventh television series in the MCU, is slated to stream on Disney+ Hotstar from next week.

Ahead of the much-anticipated premiere of Ms Marvel, the team of the high-profile streaming show has already expressed their desire to work with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan.


Recently, fans went crazy on social media as Shah Rukh Khan’s blockbuster films Baazigar (1993) and Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) found a mention in the trailer of the show.

In a recent interview, co-executive producer for the series Sana Amanat and directors Bilall Fallah and Adil El Arbi opened up about how Khan is part of the series.

“If Shah Rukh Khan wants to be in this show, we will go film again! We'll go back to production, we're (definitely) going back to production! Call somebody! SRK actually is from the comics. We have some Shah Rukh Khan mentions in the comics because it was linked to Kamala's connectivity with Bollywood and we just love him. As a Pakistani kid in Jersey, I loved Bollywood actors growing up. So having that integrated into Kamala's world makes it more global and real. It's really awesome and we are very excited about it. Shah Rukh, if you want to work with us, we are down for it,” she said in the interview.

Adil, who previously directed Bad Boys for Life with Bilall, also said that they want to remake Bad Boys 3 with Shah Rukh.

“We would want to make a Bad Boys 3 remake with Shah Rukh Khan."

Sana added that “this will be the perfect pitch' and Bilal called the actor 'one of the biggest stars in the world, a legend.”

Set to premiere on Disney+ on June 8, Ms Marvel is the first Muslim superhero series from the house of Marvel Studios, featuring newcomer Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan aka Ms Marvel, a Muslim American teenager growing up in Jersey City.

Education or imposition? Tamil Nadu battles India government over Hindi in schools

A war of words has erupted between Tamil Nadu’s Chief Minister MK Stalin and the federal government over the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which recommends a three-language formula in schools, with two of the three being native to India. Stalin has voiced strong objections, claiming that the policy could lead to the imposition of Hindi, a northern Indian language, in non-Hindi-speaking states like Tamil Nadu. The issue has reignited old tensions between southern states and the central government over the privileging of Hindi.

Historical resistance to Hindi

Tamil Nadu has a deep-rooted history of opposing the promotion of Hindi, dating back to the 1960s. Protests broke out in the state when the federal government attempted to make Hindi the sole official language, leading to a compromise that allowed the continued use of English. Language in Tamil Nadu is not merely a means of communication but a powerful symbol of cultural identity. Tamil, one of the oldest living languages in the world, is a source of pride for the state’s people. As a result, any perceived threat to its prominence is met with strong resistance.

He added that diversity should not be limited to ethnicity, where progress has been made, but should also include diversity of thought, particularly by including more voices from the northern working class.
