Furthermore, if grapevine is to be believed, Aamir Khan will likely play the role of Lord Krishna.

The news has sent shockwaves in the industry. This comes weeks after Aamir Khan had hinted that he wants to do a movie with SRK and Salman. After performing together at Anant Ambani-Radhika Merchant's pre-wedding festivities, Aamir had said, "Even I think we should do a film together. When we were together (at Jamnagar) — Shah Rukh, Salman and me — we were also contemplating that we must do a film together for our audiences. So, we had this thought, now let's see what happens. I hope if a good script is offered, we will definitely do it. I think all three of us are very keen to work with each other."
