We’re all suckers for rom-coms, aren’t we? Rom-com is a genre that people love to binge-watch, even if they hate to admit it. Honestly, I’m one of them. They’re an absolute guilty pleasure for me so, I can understand this feeling. Recently, a Twitter user put forth an interesting idea for a rom-com starring Shah Rukh Khan and Shefali Shah. The plot has them starring as single parents who get set up by their kids who are best friends. And boy, are we on board or what!?
The tweet has turned into a whole thing where people are loving this fancasting and discussing how it would be incredible to see Shah Rukh Khan play a goofy, doting and fun single dad because we’ve all seen how he is and talks about his kids Aryan, Suhana, and AbRam IRL!
Everyone is obsessed with this idea and they cannot stop hoping for this plot to be manifested into a reality.
We’ve actually seen both Shah Rukh Khan and Shefali Shah play these characters separately. It’s only fair to want to see them together!
Although, some people seem to have an opposing viewpoint in terms of the cast. While people have agreed on the fact that they would adore Shah Rukh Khan in this role, some of them wish for another actress to be cast in Shefali Shah’s place. There seems to be a popular demand for Tabu and Vidya Balan, among other actresses.

We couldn’t agree more! The SRK-Tabu as a couple cameo in Saathiya had us wanting to see more of this pairing on screen! And we all know of Vidya Balan’s massive crush on SRK!
Another tweet suggested, what in my opinion is the perfect director for this rom-com! Juhi Chaturvedi has written for films like Piku and Vicky Donor, so we know this one will be in good, no, great hands!
Meanwhile, the person who came up with the idea i.e. Ishmeet Nagpal seems to have had a creative epiphany. Instead of removing Shefali Shah, she can now imagine a love triangle or throuple with another iconic Bollywood actress. I think this sounds like an even more inspired idea, doesn’t it? I’m absolutely sold. Aren’t you?
Honestly, this is the type of movie that Shah Rukh Khan should be investing his time and money in, at this point. We love him but it seems like he might be stuck in the past with his ’90s chocolate boy image which needs to retire. Everyone in the thread agrees with this statement too.

I am desperately waiting for this movie. I am going to dream about it and hope for it as well as manifest it into reality someday. Hopefully, Shah Rukh Khan would decide for the best in such a fabulous and mature romantic comedy movie. Are you as totally obsessed as I am? I sure as hell hope you are!
