The last few years have not been great for shahrukh khan. Fan was an ambitious project but was marred with a below par script. Raees was supposed to be a realistic hard hitting semi biopic on Abdul Latif but was woven with too much masala to be taken very seriously. Something similar can be said about srks previous projects like dilwale (ddlj meets rohit shetty bikes) and jhms. The problem seems to be about srk than the directors. It looks like he wants to be ambitious but fears the Box Office outcome. All his recent projects seem compromised at varied levels. His forthcoming movie Zero directed by Anand L Rai seems to be following similar trend.
