On the work front, Shah Rukh Khan's last film Zero, which released in December 2018, flopped at the Box Office. Khan was supposed to sign his next project in the month of June 2019. However, the 53-year-old says that he won't do it even then. "I said somewhere that I might decide in June about my next project. But I won't even do it in June, I will only do a film when I feel like doing it from my heart. I only act when it comes from my heart, but this time I don't feel like doing it. A lot of people are telling me stories, I've heard 15-20 stories, I liked 2-3 of them. But I haven't decided yet which film to do. Because the moment I take a decision, I will have to start working on films. I will completely be engrossed in it," said King Khan.
