Is Shahrukh Khan’s new look for Tamil Director Atlee's action thriller?

A recent picture of Shahrukh Khan in Dubai is making waves. His long hair and rugged looks may be jaw-dropping for many, but did you know that this new look could well be for Tamil industry director Atlee's next with King Khan?
 

Shahrukh Khan who is in Dubai to cheer for his franchise Kolkata Knight Riders has not just shown his new hairdo and rugged looks but also dropped a hint about his look for his next film with Tamil film industry's new-age action director Atlee Kumar.
 

Atlee who is best known for his association with Vijay in Nanban, Theri, Mersal and Bigil had announced his next big project Sanki, a Hindi-Tamil bilingual project with Shahrukh Khan.
 

It seems like this IPL season has been providing hints about how Khan is going to look in Atlee's project in which the actor reportedly plays a double role.

Some in the industry say, dropping looks and appearing in events is just a marketing strategy and to create buzz among the audience to keep them guessing with high expectations.

This alleged strategy is similar to that used by Aamir Khan who is called a perfectionist. Shahrukh Khan may be employing the same strategy to keep his fans waiting in anticipation to see their idol on screen again. The film is expected to hit screens in 2021.
