As a self-proclaimed nobody, it was natural for Deshmukh to pun on Ra.One and label himself "No-One" in a spoof poster.

Shah Rukh Khan has a wily sense of humour and he never hesitates to take a dig at himself. Khan was part of some banter with Riteish Deshmukh who is involved in quirky promotions for his upcoming film Bank Chor, on social media.
Social media has been flooded with #Chorikaposter memes wherein Deshmukh and the Bank Chor team have been morphing posters of hit and blockbuster films. From Dangal (2016) to Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (1995), Deshmukh has had his face photoshopped on all these posters.
Last evening the team of Bank Chor created a meme out of Khan’s sci-fi thriller Ra.One's (2011) poster.

Well, that sure was funny and it didn’t take long for Khan to see the lighter side of it too. Known for his wacky sense of humour, Khan didn’t hesitate in taking a cheeky dig at himself.
I also couldn’t afford the suit for part2… Dekhna bhai if u get a chance during ur robberies get me one too!! https://t.co/z3ipp9tQMm

Khan’s Ra.One was one of the most expensive films ever made in Hindi cinema with an approximate budget of well over Rs125 crore. The film did put a hole in Khan's pockets and his tweet was a cheeky reminder of it asking the Bank Chor to rob a suit, if he manages to get one.
Bank Chor will be released on 16 June.
