Shah Rukh Khan is a successful actor and an astute businessman. Now the superstar is eyeing good content and wants to buy the copyright to enhance his library, which already has a collection of 18 films.
His company Red Chillies Entertainment, which has produced movies like "Main Hoon Na", "Paheli", and "Ra.One", is looking at movies and TV shows.
"Shah Rukh Khan is looking to acquire good content which will include his TV shows and his films. But not necessarily all his work. The decision is made by Red Chillies," said a source close to the actor.
"He already has a library of 18 movies. He has the copyrights of those movies," added the source.
It has been reported that Shah Rukh is in talks with producer Robin Bhatt to buy the copyright of his 1996 movie "Chaahat" and has offered a big price.
Meanwhile, the actor is on his Temptations Reloaded tour. He will perform at Perth Wednesday.
