“Dying to see #fan! @iamsrk...do you think Adi will show it to anyone before the 15th???” Johar tweeted.

Fan, a thriller, has been directed by Maneesh Sharma and produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner. The much-anticipated movie will see Shah Rukh, 50, in double avatars, a superstar and his look-alike fan.

Johar began his Bollywood journey by assisting Chopra on Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and after working as an AD on a few more movies, ventured into direction with Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, which starred Shah Rukh in the lead.
