Clearly, SRK loves technology. Now that it’s been five years since the release of his superhero sci-fi film Ra.One, Shah Rukh Khan wants to use all the new technology available to make its sequel. A DNA report confirmed this recent development with SRK’s quote:
The first schedule of Hera Pheri 3 was shot with John Abraham, Abhishek Bachchan and Neha Sharma, but since then the two actors have not been able to take time out for the film. John is busy shooting for Force 2 and Dishoom. Even Abhishek Bachchan is busy with his film projects. Sources say that the two actors seems to have lost interest in the project. Looks like the makers of Hera Pheri 3 will have to wait patiently till the Dostana jodi gets back on the sets.

Star Wars has blasted past the $1 Billion mark globally, faster than any other film in history. According to the Hollywood Reporter, it is also leading the biggest Christmas weekend ever at the North American box office, with a stunning $153.5 Million, for a domestic total of $544.6 Million. The Disney and Lucas film title hit $1 Billion on Sunday, its 12th day of release. Jurassic World, which had the benefit of opening day-and-date in China, was the previous record-holder (13 days). The Force Awakens also snatched the record for the biggest second weekend from Jurassic World, which earned $106 Million domestically in its sophomore outing. Overseas, The Force Awakens took in $133.3 Million for a foreign total of $546 Million and a worldwide haul of $1.09 Billion. At this rate, there’s no saying how high the Star Wars reboot will ultimately fly.
