Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film King is set to begin shooting in June 2025. The movie, directed by Siddharth Anand, was originally supposed to start filming in March 2025, but due to some delays, the schedule has been pushed back. According to reports, the director is still working on finalizing the script, ensuring that everything is well-prepared before production begins.

The film is expected to be a grand project, with shooting locations planned in both India and Europe. It is being produced by Red Chillies Entertainment, Shah Rukh Khan’s home production company, along with Marflix. The makers aim to create a large-scale cinematic experience that will offer audiences a visually stunning and action-packed film. The movie is expected to release by the end of 2026.

King will also feature Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter, Suhana Khan, in a significant role. This marks a major career step for Suhana, who made her acting debut with The Archies on Netflix. Actor Abhay Verma, known for his role in Munjya, is also part of the film’s cast.

During the Locarno Film Festival, Shah Rukh Khan spoke about King and expressed his excitement about the project. He mentioned that he had wanted to do a film like this for several years. He described it as an action drama and a mass entertainer, promising a mix of emotions, action, and a gripping storyline.

Siddharth Anand and Shah Rukh Khan previously worked together on Pathaan, which was a huge success. The duo is now looking to raise the bar with King, as they aim to match the high standards set by Yash Raj Films’ Spy Universe. Siddharth Anand is taking his time to fine-tune every aspect of the script to ensure a top-quality film.

Apart from King, Shah Rukh Khan is also involved in another big project, Tiger vs Pathaan, which is part of the YRF Spy Universe. This film will see him team up with Salman Khan, continuing their spy action roles from their previous films.

Fans of Shah Rukh Khan are eagerly waiting for King, as it promises to be a grand cinematic spectacle. With high expectations and a talented team behind it, the film is expected to be one of the most awaited releases in the coming years.
