Are you ready for a game of hockey with Shah Rukh Khan?

 

This hoarding -- located on a busy junction in Bandra, a Mumbai suburb -- seems to prepare us for the game.

 

SRK's first release of the year, Chak De India, will be out on August 10. The actor will play the coach of a girl's hockey

team in the Yash Raj Films production.

 

The film will be directed by Shimit Amin, who made the well-made Ab Tak Chappan, starring Nana Patekar.

 

Lets hope Chak De India sees a better fate than Yash Chopra's previous 2007 releases, Ta Ra Rum Pum and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom.
