Shah Rukh Khan approached for a cameo in Toxic

Although Shah Rukh Khan has a lot of exciting projects in his kitty there is one project that seems to have everyone’s attention. If the chatter within the industry is to be believed, Yash, his director, Geetu Mohandas, and the makers of Toxic recently approached Shah Rukh Khan for an extended cameo in the gangster-based action thriller. “Shah Rukh Khan is at the peak of his career and every director is looking to collaborate with him at the moment. Earlier in the year, Yash, Geetu Mohandas, and Toxic makers approached Shah Rukh Khan for an extended cameo in the gangster-based actioner. It’s an author-backed role and not one of those just added for a gimmick. There is a proper track for the character which has been offered to SRK, and the makers are hoping to have him on board,” revealed a source close to the development.
