Director Kabir Khan who is all geared up for his upcoming web series ‘The Forgotten Army’, says that Shahrukh Khan did voiceover in the web series without charging any money. He further added that usually the process to discuss on any project with Shahrukh is too lengthy. But when he called Shahrukh for the same, he instantly agreed. Shahrukh the very next day came to the studio and did voiceover in the series.
Kabir Khan was seen interacting with the media on Friday in Mumbai.
Talking more on this, Kabir said, “Shahrukh has graciously given the voiceover for the introduction part (montages) of the series. The introduction includes the real footage of the army. It’s not that I had approach Shahrukh for the series. Earlier too, I had approached Shahrukh when the series was actually a film script. I wanted to make a film with him, but little we had in our conversation so the idea got dropped.
Finally, when I was making the original series, I thought to approach Shahrukh to do voiceover. Shahrukh immediately agreed to do this, because, due to his father he was attached with the army. His father during the reign was involved with Azad Hind Sena and general Shahnawaz Khan (the head of the army). I think, due to this reflection of emotion Shahrukh agreed and didn’t charge any money from us,” he added.
The Forgotten Army’ - Azaadi Ke Liye is a mini web television series which will release of Amazon Prime Video on 24 January 2020, two days before Republic Day in India (26 January). Directed by Kabir Khan, the series is based on true events about the men and women in the Indian National Army led by Subhash Chandra Bose.
