Speed News Desk | Updated on: 11 February 2017, 5:46 IST

Roshan is said to have agreed to do the film which was first offered to Shah Rukh Khan

Karan Johar and Hrithik Roshan were supposed to work together in Shuddhi. However, later the cast was changed and the project never took off. Now if sources are too believed, then Karan has again decided to work with him. Although there have been news that Karan Malhotra is uniting with Hrithik under Karan Johar's banner, there is another film which Johar wants him to do. A source says, "Karan was keen to cast Shah Rukh Khan in his next film. He had a script narrating sessions with the actor. But he did not like it and Karan tried hard to convince him."

During the shoot of Karan's last film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, it is said Shah Rukh had suggested some changes and it did work well in the film's favour. So even for the new film, SRK had some script suggestions to make and KJo is said to be not too happy with that. A source says, "Eventually Karan has decided to move on and approach Hrithik with the same script. Hrithik liked it and immediately agreed to come on board."

Karan and Hrithik worked together on the remake of Agneepath in 2012 which managed to do good business. Karan Malhotra is also directing one more film for KJo with Hrithik again cast in that film too. For that one, it is reported that Saif Ali Khan's daughter Sara is expected to make her debut.
