Shah Rukh Khan to do a cameo in Brahmastra?

Shah Rukh Khan was last seen on the big screen in Zero. The film, which also starred Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif, was a disaster at the box office. SRK has not yet announced his next film and there are reports that on his birthday, 2nd November, the actor will announce his next project. Reportedly, he will be seen in a film titled Sanki which will be directed by Atlee.

Now, according to a report in a tabloid, Shah Rukh Khan will be seen in a cameo in Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Amitabh Bachchan starrer Brahmastra. A source told the tabloid, “It’s a guest appearance but Shah Rukh plays a pivotal role in taking Ranbir’s journey forward. He has already allotted his dates for his portions and will shoot before the year-end.”


Ayan Mukerji, the director of Brahmastra, is a big fan of SRK, and he wrote a part that could only be played by the actor. The source said, “Shah Rukh himself likes Ayan’s work and immediately agreed to the cameo. And like everyone else’s in the film, even SRK’s character has the mythological touch.”

Well, in 2016, SRK had done a cameo in Ranbir Kapoor’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. His cameo was one of the highlights of the film. We are sure it will be interesting to see the two actors sharing the screen space once again.

Meanwhile, Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor will be heading to Manali to shoot for a 15-day schedule of the film. We wonder if SRK will join them in that schedule.

Brahmastra was slated to hit the screens in December this year. But has been postponed to Summer 2020. The makers have not yet officially announced the release date of the film. The movie also stars Nagarjuna and Dimple Kapadia.

Falklands sovereignty row erupts days before King Charles meets Trump

Highlights

  • A Pentagon email reported by Reuters suggested the US was considering reviewing its support for UK sovereignty over the Falklands.
  • Downing Street said sovereignty "rests with the UK" and the islanders' right to self-determination is "paramount".
  • Report emerged just three days before King Charles and Queen Camilla are due to meet Trump at the White House.
A report suggesting the US may be rethinking its position on the Falkland Islands has sparked a strong response from Downing Street, coming just days before King Charles and Queen Camilla head to Washington to meet president Donald Trump.
An internal Pentagon email, reported by Reuters, suggested the US was looking at ways to put pressure on Nato allies it felt had not supported its war in Iran.
One of the options discussed was a review of American backing for British sovereignty over the Falklands.
No 10 was quick to respond, with the prime minister's spokesman saying the government "could not be clearer" on its stance.
"Sovereignty rests with the UK and the islanders' right to self-determination is paramount," he told BBC, adding that this had been "expressed clearly and consistently to successive US administrations."
He was firm that "nothing is going to change that."
The Falkland Islands government backed London's position, saying it had "complete confidence" in the UK's commitment to defending its right to self-determination.
Previous US administrations have recognised Britain's administration of the islands but have stopped short of formally backing its sovereignty claim.

Political reaction grows

The report triggered sharp reactions from across British politics. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch called the reported US position "absolute nonsense", adding: "We need to make sure that we back the Falklands.

They are British territory." Reform UK's Nigel Farage said the matter was "utterly non-negotiable" and confirmed he would raise it with Argentina's president Javier Milei when they meet later this year.
