Mumbai: After a blockbuster year in 2023 with hits like Pathaan and Jawan, Shah Rukh Khan took a step back from the camera, choosing to take a 2-year break. Fans were eagerly waiting and guessing what his next big movie would be. Now, the wait is over! SRK is back on his throne, and his new movie ‘King’ has officially started shooting today in Mehboob Studios, Mumbai.
Even though SRK hasn’t joined the shoot yet, his daughter Suhana Khan and actor Abhay Verma have already started filming their parts. Suhana, who made her debut with The Archies, is making her first big-screen appearance in this film alongside her father. Abhay, known for the horror-comedy Munjya, was supposed to join the shoot in June or July, but the schedule was changed last minute.
Director Siddharth Anand, who earlier worked with SRK in Pathaan, has already filmed high-energy action scenes, some of which used SRK’s body double. To avoid leaks, the team has set up tight security around the sets, especially in Bandra, where some intense scenes are being shot.
King comes with a strong lineup of stars:
The film is planned for a Gandhi Jayanti 2026 release. Backed by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, King is said to be a revenge thriller packed with action, emotions, and drama.
