Bollywood just got a fresh update from Poland. Arshad Warsi, the ever-charming Jolly LLB star, has officially joined the cast of Shah Rukh Khan’s highly anticipated action-thriller King.
The actor confirmed it himself with a stylish Instagram post from the streets of Warsaw, sparking immediate excitement among fans.
“No prize for guessing where I am, shooting with my favourite… Thank You God,” Warsi wrote, dropping a photo in a sleek black tee and jacket combo.
The caption left little doubt. And in the comments, director Siddharth Anand sealed the deal, welcoming him on board with the words, “Welcome to the Kingdom.”
While the exact details of Warsi’s role are under wraps, reports suggest it’s going to be a pivotal one. What makes this even bigger is that it’s the first time Arshad Warsi will share full-fledged screen space with Shah Rukh Khan.
King, produced under Red Chillies Entertainment and Siddharth Anand’s Marflix Pictures, is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious action films in recent memory. SRK plays a seasoned assassin navigating a dangerous underworld, while his daughter Suhana Khan makes her Bollywood debut as his trainee.
The star cast is nothing short of dazzling—Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Rani Mukerji, Jackie Shroff, Jaideep Ahlawat, and more.
For Warsi, the timing is interesting. Apart from King, he’s gearing up for Jolly LLB 3, where he’ll once again clash in court with Akshay Kumar. That film, directed by Subhash Kapoor, is already making noise for being inspired by a real-life incident.
So yes, Warsaw may be chilly right now, but Bollywood’s heating up fast, with Arshad Warsi standing right next to Shah Rukh Khan in what could easily be one of the year’s biggest blockbusters.
