On Wednesday, a new advertisement went on air, where SRK was seen discussing content ideas for SRK+ with renowned director Anurag Kashyap. However, Khan’s manager dismissed all the ideas, saying that similar concepts were executed by other shows and films on Disney+Hotstar. SRK asked if there was anything good left. His manager said that they own an IPL (Indian Premier League) team. However, Anurag laughed by saying that Disney+Hotstar also has the Tata IPL.
SRK and Disney+Hotstar collaboration
According to media reports, SRK+ is an extension of Khan’s collaboration with Disney+Hotstar. He will be making his digital debut with Disney+Hotstar. Other details of SRK+ will soon be shared by the actor. Anurag Kashyap also announced on social media that he is collaborating with SRK on his OTT app.
