Director Aanand L Rai, who has churned out beautiful romantic films, now wants to make a movie with Shah Rukh Khan, the king in this genre.
In "Tanu Weds Manu", Rai, who has a penchant for out of the box love stories, created this story of 'love at first sight' where the guy Manu, played by actor R Madhavan falls for Tanu, a free spirited girl, essayed by Kangana Ranaut.
In "Raanjhanaa", he showed a love triangle between south actor Dhanush, Sonam Kapoor and Abhay Deol.

"As I deal with romance in my films I do wish to make a romantic film with Shah Rukh Khan, he is the right, best man in this space. If I have anything exciting and feel he will like it I will surely approach him," Rai who is readying for the release 'Tanu weds Manu Returns' told PTI in an interview here.
"I was a little shy when I first met Shah Rukh. He is a relaxed man. There was a connect between us, we had a healthy conversation. But I did not tell him that I wish to make a romantic film with him," he said.
Rai feels the absence of love in real life somewhere pushes him to create beautiful love stories on screen.
There was a buzz that Rai was going to make a film with superstar Salman Khan, was going to play a dwarf. Apparently Salman was upset that the storyline of this film was out so he wished to stay away from the project.
When asked about the status of the film with Salman, Rai says, "My entire focus is on "Tanu Weds Manu Returns" right now I am too much into this. After the release of 'Tanu Weds Manu Returns' I will be a bit relaxed so that time I will talk about it.
