Shahrukh Khan tweets he wants to make a Bollywood version of American crime-thriller ‘Breaking Bad’

 Shahrukh Khan has expressed his interest in making a film on “Breaking Bad” an American crime drama television series created and produced by Vince Gilligan.

The gripping storyline of the chemistry professor and his ordeal with a cancer diagnosis and meth production had kept fans hooked for years.

He tweeted, “Breaking Bad time. A packet of chips, bed, cola, and nothing comes between me and ‘if u don’t know me, our best course is to tread carefully.”

Khan grew so fond of the story that he also wanted to make a desi film version of it and even got his sources working on getting the rights.

In an earlier interview, Khan revealed, “I want to make it [Breaking Bad] into a movie.”

He confessed that for a series, the show is ‘too evolved’ for Indian television. Khan stated, “The Indian audience won’t be accepting of meth, drugs, and the mafia. But the story of a man who is going to die and take a chance to save his family is a good premise for a feature film.”

“I have asked some people who said they would get me the rights. I am at that age when taking up such a role will be interesting.”

Moreover, when asked who he would like to play the lead character of Walter White, Khan quipped, “Great films don’t work without me, darling!”
