MUMBAI: Shah Rukh Khan is being considered to be part of a core committee of the film industry‘s Producers‘ Association. The topic will be brought up when the producers meet soon to conduct their annual general meeting (AGM).

Producers plan to suggest the name of Khan to be included in the decision-making body that will look at keeping them unified and address issues that filmmakers across India face. 

They believe that since Khan is in the industry for several years, his experience will definitely count on matters of how to keep the producers united like was evident when the producers’ body put up a brave fight against the multiplex owners in the profit sharing issue last year.

Aamir Khan was also being considered to be part of the body alongside Khan but he backed out because he was dragged to Court by the Competition Commission on charges of forming a cartel during the filmmakers and multiplex owners‘ strike.

Said Producers‘ Association senior vice-president Mukesh Bhatt, “Shah Rukh Khan‘s name being considered to hold a key post in the association is a welcome news. He should come on board since he is an actor-producer and I feel that his services would be of great help to our association."
