The moment went down at a packed launch event in Dubai, where over 6,000 guests watched Danube Group chairman Rizwan Sajan drop a heavy hint that a sequel is already in the works. Using one of SRK’s iconic lines, he told the crowd: “Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost” — instantly triggering speculation around a “Shahrukhz 2.0” project.

The tower is positioned as a luxury business address on Sheikh Zayed Road, targeting global founders, innovators, and corporate heavyweights. It covers over one million square feet, with 488 commercial units starting at AED 2 million, plus amenities that feel more like a five-star resort: a sky pool, a helipad designed for air taxis, executive lounges, and valet services.
