In the yet-untitled film, Nayanthara will be playing the leading lady opposite Shah Rukh Khan. Although makers tried to keep the news tightly under wraps about the film, their Pune schedule exposed it all. While the team hasn’t revealed the official title, as per the copy of the permission letter, the SRK starrer has been titled, ‘Lion.’
The subject reads, “Permission to park our vehicles at your premises for ‘Lion’ Hindi feature film shooting.” It also contains the name of the director, Atlee, along with actors Shah Rukh Khan and Nayan Tara.
The movie has been the subject of news since its inception and fans are super curious to watch their favourite superstars in a different avatar.
