Recently, the makers released the first look of Shahrukh Khan’s much awaited film ‘King’ on his 60th birthday, since then there is a lot of discussion on the internet, especially about the fact that Shahrukh’s look is similar to Brad Pitt’s look in ‘F1’. Pictures of Brad Pitt and Shahrukh wearing similar looks and exactly the same clothes are going viral on social media. Now, director Siddharth Anand has broken his silence on the ongoing comparisons and fan theories regarding this project.
Shahrukh Brad Pitt’s copy is being told to K King clan
As soon as the first look of ‘King’ came out on social media, the timeline was flooded with posts trolling Shahrukh’s outfit, blue shirt and tan jacket. Many users were quick to notice that Shah Rukh Khan’s look as the King is very similar to Brad Pitt’s look in F1, following which photos of the two stars were shared together. Some called the similarity a harmless “inspiration”, while others accused the team of “copying”, sparking a heated debate online.
Amidst the growing discussion, Siddharth Anand took note of a viral tweet in which questions were raised on the constant criticism of Bollywood. The post read, “The funny logic of haters these days. If there is a fighter jet in a Bollywood film, then it is a copy of Top Gun, if there is a ship, then it is a copy of Titanic. If the dress code is the same, then it is a copy of F1, if there is an orange dress, then it is anti-Hindu, then their IQ level is as if it is buffering since 1947.”
