A vernacular newspaper report says that Aditya has consciously decided not to cast Shah Rukh Khan.
Aditya is handling the home banner Yash Raj Productions after his father Yash Chopra's death. He has made some memorable movies with SRK namely Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Mohabattein and lastly Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.
While it would have been good to see the hit jodi of actor and director to work together, we think Aditya wants to be experimental and give newcomers a chance too.
