Shah Rukh Khan may play double role in Farah Khan's Main Hoon Na sequel: Report

Is Major Ram back, and not alone this time? Shah Rukh Khan may be set to reunite with director Farah Khan for a sequel to their 2004 blockbuster Main Hoon Na, with reports suggesting a double-role twist that could give the film a fresh spin while retaining its nostalgic charm.

According to industry buzz, Farah Khan has been developing a new concept that brings Shah Rukh Khan back into her directorial universe, sparking speculation that Main Hoon Na 2 could finally be taking shape. Interest around the project intensified after Farah hinted at her return to direction with a Shah Rukh Khan film, setting fan conversations into overdrive.

A report by Pinkvilla claims that the sequel hinges on Shah Rukh Khan playing two contrasting characters. Quoting a source, the report states, “Farah Khan has cracked an exciting double-role concept for Shah Rukh Khan, which has excited the superstar. The idea is said to elevate the



emotion and entertainment quotient of the sequel, while SRK explores two very different characters.”

The source further added that the film would lean heavily into patriotism, much like the original, while blending action and comedy. “It’s a patriotism galore, with the original cast returning. The story revolves around a new threat to India, and interestingly, the core idea has come from Shah Rukh Khan himself,” the source claimed.

If the project moves forward, actors from the original film, including Sushmita Sen, Suniel Shetty, Zayed Khan and Amrita Rao, are expected to reprise their roles, adding to the nostalgia factor.

That said, the film is still in the discussion stage. Shah Rukh Khan is reportedly set to hear the full narration from Farah Khan only after wrapping up his upcoming film King, slated for release in May 2026. A final call on the sequel will be taken post-narration.
