“She is doing a film with Shah Rukh Khan, which is directed by Atlee. Shah Rukh Khan plays a dual role in the film. It is too early to share details regarding Nayanthara’s role in the film,” a source close to the development said.

Khan is currently working on Pathan and a call will be taken whether to begin shoot on Atlee’s film or filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani’s movie, the insider added.

On Wednesday, Disney+ Hotstar announced that Nayanthara’s upcoming Tamil feature film Netrikann will be released on the streaming platform.
