EXCLUSIVE: Shah Rukh Khan approached for Madhur Bhandarkar’s Inspector Ghalib?

Director Madhur Bhandarkar, who last directed Calendar Girls, is all set to make a new film, titled Inspector Ghalib. The movie is based on the sand mafias in India.

Reportedly, a source had revealed about the film to a leading daily. “Cop films are doing well. Inspector Ghalib is the story of a cop who is up in arms against illegal sand mining in various parts of the country, and he takes on the sand mafia. And like every other Madhur film, this will not be a movie like a Simmba or a Singham. It will cock-a-snook at the issue and will tickle the underbelly of the system that supports illegal sand mining,” the source had informed a daily.

Now we have learnt that Madhur has narrated the script to none other than Shah Rukh Khan. A source in the know spilled some details to us. “Madhur Bhandarkar had a meeting with Shah Rukh Khan and narrated the script to him. SRK has liked it but he is yet to give his nod to the filmmaker. Since Shah Rukh has opted out of Saare Jahan Se Achcha, he is considering different roles and projects. Inspector Ghalib is one of them,” reveals our source.
