Fan is produced by Aditya Chopra and written by Habib Faisal.

Shah Rukh Khan plays an ardent fan of a superstar in the film. Greg Cannom is best known for transforming Brad Pitt in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008).

This is the first time Cannom has been associated with a Bollywood film.

SRK had tweeted while announcing his film, "Most of the characters I do are the ones I create... for the first time I am going to play what has created me... I will be in my next a "FAN"."

We're looking forward to seeing your transformation from a superstar to a fan, Shah Rukh!
