A new friendship between filmmaker Anurag Kashyap and Shah Rukh Khan is brewing these days. The maverick filmmaker, who is known for his dislike for certain stereotypical norms in the industry, seems to be warming up to all the right names in the film fraternity now.

After patching up with Arbaaz Khan at a party few weeks back, Anurag is now seen spending some quality time with superstar Shah Rukh Khan. Speaking to a daily, a source said, "Last week at a party for one of the upcoming awards SRK, Anurag, Kalki, Gulshan Deviah and Karan Johar were seen hanging out together.

In fact they left the venue together. Everyone was surprised because it was a whole new gang bonding with each other." A few months ago, industry was ripe with rumours that trouble was brewing between the filmmaker and the superstar. Apparently the filmmaker felt SRK wasn’t the right choice for his film ‘Bombay Velvet’. But the director soon cleared the air and stated that Aamir was always the first choice for the film.

At a press conference held recently, Anurag said, "I would love to work with Shah Rukh and Hrithik. They are extremely talented." "After the party, the whole gang was spotted at SRK`s Bandra bungalow. So it looks like there was some serious discussion going on,” added the source.

Anurag’s wife, Kalki Koechlin was also seen bonding with SRK camp at an awards ceremony. Infact, post the release of ‘Udaan’, Karan Johar and Kashyap were also set to team up for Vikramaditya Motwane`s next. But that did not materialize. And with SRK now in the picture, who knows, some thing big might come up considering all of the above mentioned people are best in the business of movie making.
