The pre-release buzz around "Dilwale" is keeping Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan on his toes. He says he is "exhausted" with his hectic schedule.
Shah Rukh, who will be seen alongside actors Kajol, Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon in "Dilwale", took to Twitter in the early hours of Wednesday morning to share: "Exhausted, sinused and fevered. A good night's sleep may take care of it. Only problem is not enough night left to make it good. Pill or Pillow?"
"Dilwale", which will release on December 18, will also feature Sanjay Mishra, Boman Irani and Johnny Lever.
Apart from that, Shah Rukh also has films like "Fan" and "Raees" in his kitty which are slated to release during next year.
