Shah Rukh Khan made Deepika Padukone learn Tamil
Director Rohit Shetty has earned the reputation of making films — the Golmaal series, Singham (2011) and Bol Bachchan (2012) — that always manage to cross the Rs. 100 crore mark at the box office. For his upcoming movie, Chennai Express, lead actor Shah Rukh Khan wanted everything done meticulously to ensure another successful project.

In his upcoming film Chennai Express, Shah Rukh Khan will be seen in a complete action-packed avatar, perhaps to give his rivals Salman Khan and Ajay Devgn tough competition.
The actor reportedly performed dangerous action sequences in the film, despite a shoulder injury.
Rohit Shetty's comic caper on hold
Director Rohit Shetty’s first brush with fame was his 2006 hit Golmaal. He went on to make two sequels, Golmaal Returns (2008) and Golmaal 3 (2010), and is keen on a fourth film in the series. However, he hasn’t been able to find a powerful script for it. Writer duo Sajid-Farhad admit that Rohit has been in constant touch with them to finalise a script, and has even rejected a few options.
“Golmaal 3 is our favourite film, so to be bigger and better than that, we need a great story. We’ve discussed several scripts for Golmaal 4, but nothing has worked out yet. We’ve rejected a few as they didn’t excite us,” says Sajid.
In the meantime, Rohit, as well as Sajid-Farhad, are keeping themselves busy with other projects. Sajid says, “Rohit is presently focussing on Chennai Express with Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. After that, he will start working on Singham 2. I don’t think Golmaal 4 will happen before that.”
