Suhana Khan’s next film with dad Shah Rukh inspired by ‘Leon: The Professional’
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter Suhana Khan, who made her Bollywood debut with Netflix’s ‘The Archies’ directed by Zoya Akhtar, is set to wow the audience once again with her new project.
Rumour has it that Suhana Khan’s second film is inspired by the English language French production, ‘Leon: The Professional’ (1994). It has been tentatively titled ‘King’.
The original film revolves around a professional hitman who reluctantly takes in a twelve-year-old after her family is murdered by a corrupt official. The two form an unusual relationship, as she becomes his protégée and learns to be like him.
DirectorSujoy Ghoshis adapting the revenge drama, with Shah Rukh Khan playing a role that was essayed by Jean Reno and Suhana stepping into Natalie Portman’s shoes. “Though Shah Rukh’s character is like a mentor to Suhana’s, the interpersonal dynamics, other aspects, and treatment will be altered keeping Indian sentiments in mind,” a source informed mid-day.com.
Prep is underway for the film that is slated to go on floors in May.
Suhana was recently in the news for closing her second real estate deal. She has reportedly purchased 78,361 sq ft of land in Alibuag for Rs 9.50 crore. Last June, Suhana acquired 1.5 acres of agricultural land inAlibaugwith three structures on it for Rs 12.91 crore.
