Summary

- He filmed parts of Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming 'King' project.
- Shukla views acting and directing as complementary growth.
Saurabh Shukla is transitioning back to acting following his extensive work on the directorial project 'Jab Khuli Kitaab'. He has already completed filming some scenes for 'King', a forthcoming film featuring Shah Rukh Khan and his daughter Suhana Khan, and will soon return to set for the remaining sequences.

He recently had two projects released: 'Subedaar' on Amazon Prime Video and his directorial 'Jab Khuli Kitaab' on ZEE5. Shukla emphasizes that acting, writing, and directing can be demanding, but his passion for storytelling drives him to explore all creative avenues. He believes that engaging in various art forms, such as writing and music, enhances an actor's rhythm and overall artistic growth.
