Director Atlee Kumar has hinted at collaborating with Shah Rukh Khan again after the success of Jawan.

Speaking at the ABP Conclave, Atlee shared that he's considering another film with the 58-year-old actor, depending on whether he can develop a captivating script.

He also showed admiration for Shah Rukh's films and expressed excitement about working together again soon.

The Bigil director said, “I love all his films, DDLJ, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Om Shanti Om, Chennai Express, I can go on and on, for me, he is the face of Indian cinema to the world."

"So, it is a dream to work with Mr. Shah Rukh sir. Fortunately, I got to do that in my fifth film. God has been kind and I think I have justified that," he added.

Atlee also praised the Pathaan actor's energy on set, calling him the "best man" he has ever seen.

He explained, "Of course, definitely I will crack a subject better than Jawan, and I will go to him for sure. I will narrate and I will go to him for sure. I will narrate it, if he likes definitely it will happen. I know he loves me a lot."

"He is something else. He is always an energy to go. He is the best man I have seen in my life. Thank you, Shah Rukh sir. I will come to you once I crack something greater than Jawan. I will definitely come to you," Atlee added.
