The on-screen pairing of Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra has been very popular, and their films have left a lasting impression on fans. Both actors are currently busy with their own major films. Shah Rukh Khan has the film ‘King’ in progress and is also involved in his children’s careers. Meanwhile, Priyanka Chopra is set to return to Indian cinema and is working on Rajamouli’s SSMB29. The news is that Priyanka is involved in a project connected to a film that was previously shelved, starring Shah Rukh Khan.
A recent report mentions that Priyanka Chopra, through her production house Purple Pebble Pictures, is launching an Indian-Swedish project. She will be an executive producer for ‘The Cycle of Love,’ a documentary. The link to Shah Rukh Khan comes through the Bollywood film ‘Izhaar,’ which was put on hold some time ago.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali had planned to make a film based on this story in 2013, with Shah Rukh Khan as PK Mahanandia. This character was an Indian man who, with his paintbrushes and a bicycle, went on a long journey through Asia and Europe to find his beloved.
Bhansali and Shah Rukh Khan had previously worked together on ‘Devdas,’ and they also planned another film with Warner Bros. However, the project was cancelled without explanation.
In 2019, there were reports that Bhansali might choose to work on ‘Izhaar’ instead of ‘Inshallah,’ which was untrue.
The documentary ‘The Cycle of Love’ tells the story of PK Mahanandia, a Delhi street artist, who rode his bicycle 6,000 miles in 1977 to meet his love. The documentary is being directed by Orlando von Einsiedel, who also directed ‘The White Helmets,’ which won an Oscar.
