Thursday, 3rd Sept 2015, 5:02 PM IST Few days ago, Karan Johar announced that his next production will star Alia Bhatt and Shahrukh Khan in the lead roles and the movie will be directed by Gauri Shinde. While some people are excited to watch Alia and SRK on screen together, some have also stated that the actress is too young to star opposite the superstar. However, recently Alia spoke about the unusual casting and said she will let the film do the talking. When Alia was asked about the unusual casting, she said, "I am aware. Even when the announcement was made, many people were like, ‘What the hell?’ or ‘How is this possible?’ or ‘This is damn weird’. But I don’t want to say anything. I am going to stay quiet. I will let the trailers and the film do the talking. Sometimes, the story should be given more regard. So, let’s wait for that. I won’t say too much right now." Further when she was asked about how excited she is to work with SRK, the actress said, "I am obviously very excited. It’s a big deal. It’s like a dream come true. I am also happy because I am very fond of Gauri Shinde. I loved her first film (‘English Vinglish’; 2012). Of course I am huge SRK fan. I have watched all his films. I am like a crazy fan. As a youngster, I watched ‘Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge’ (1995) and ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ (1998) so many times. Every Sunday, either of the two films or even ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham...’ (2001) play on TV, and I watch them again and again. Also, my dad (filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt) has worked with Shahrukh, so I know the kind of actor he is. I am aware of his dedication. I know how hardworking he is. He is very charismatic."
