Shah Rukh Khan to announce Aanand L Rai film's title on New Year's Day

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan has his New Year's Day treat ready for his fans. He will announce the title of Aanand L Rai's film on Monday. The movie, which will see Shah Rukh in a never-seen-before avatar -- reportedly as a dwarf -- also features Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif. Shah Rukh and Rai engaged in banter over the pending announcement on Twitter. The actor asked the filmmaker about when should the title be announced, and they reached a conclusion to give it out to the fans at 5 p.m. on Monday.
