Highly versatile Taapsee Pannu, who has been consistently delivering successful films at the box-office, may soon reunite with superstar Shah Rukh Khan. The actress has previously starred in Red Chillies Entertainment’s superhit thriller Badla (2019), which also had megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the prominent role. Now, the news is coming in that Pannu is in consideration for a concept-driven social comedy which Shah Rukh Khan is planning to produce under his banner.
Spilling some more beans on Khan’s slate of films, a source close to the development informs an entertainment portal, “Shah Rukh Khan might have stayed away from films in the last two years, but he and his team have already locked several projects that he plans to produce under his banner Red Chillies Entertainment. While two-three of them will have him starring in them, including Rajkumar Hirani's next, there are many others that he plans to bankroll with other actors from the industry.”
The source goes on to add, “There is a social comedy that they have been putting together and the team has internally decided to approach Taapsee for the same. It is a quirky concept-driven film and they wanted someone to shoulder it and given how Taapsee led Badla, the Red Chillies team plans to take it to her.”
Meanwhile, Taapsee Pannu has her date diary filled with a variety of projects, which are currently at various stages of development. Some of her upcoming films in Bollywood include Haseen Dillruba, Looop Lapeta, Rashmi Rocket, Shabash Mithu and an Anurag Kashyap directorial. The actress has also signed a film down south. With such a choc-o-block schedule, it will be interesting to see how she manages to squeeze out time for the said film with Red Chillies Entertainment.

Perry's onstage quip about "Englishmen" felt like a deliberate signal.
Those yacht photos are, frankly, undeniable.
It started with a Montreal dinner most people missed.
Both are out of long-term relationships.
Well, she’s as good as confirmed it, hasn’t she? Katy Perry just tossed a verbal grenade into her London concert, and the pieces all point to Justin Trudeau. That line about Englishmen? You do not say that by accident. It lands just days after those, let's face it, pretty steamy pictures of them surfaced on her boat. This Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau thing is suddenly feeling very real, shifting from rumours to a full-blown celebrity romance.

So what did she actually say?
Mid-show at the O2, looking out at the crowd, she hits them with this: "London, England, you’re like this on a Monday night?... No wonder I fall for Englishmen all the time."
Pause.
Then came the kicker: "...but not anymore." The place erupts. It was too specific, too perfectly timed. And then, almost as if scripted, some fan proposes to her. Her comeback was: "I wish you’d asked me 48 hours ago." What is that, if not a nod to a new, serious someone?
Let’s talk about the yacht. The Daily Mail got those shots and, while grainy, the story they tell is crystal clear. The photos were taken off the coast of Santa Barbara, on her 78-foot Caravelle. He is pulling her in, kissing her cheek. His hand was on her backside in another frame. This follows that low-key Montreal dinner in July that almost flew under the radar.

Where does this leave everyone?
Right, let us look at the context. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom only finalised their split recently, with the co-parenting news coming out in July. Justin Trudeau’s marriage to Sophie Grégoire also ended last year. Both are prominent figures with busy lives who have only just become single. Sources are already saying he has been "persistent," flying to see her on tour breaks. It has the feel of something that is accelerating fast. And Perry, with that London comment, seems ready to let it.
