At a glitzy event in Dubai, Shah Rukh Khan confirmed that he will be reuniting with his Pathaan director for his next movie, King. The filmmaker is also known for helming Hrithik Roshan starrer War.
Spilling the details about the project, King Khan revealed that the filming has already begun and that work is on in full swing. “I’m shooting it in Mumbai now, when I go back… my director Siddharth Anand is very sweet. He made Pathaan,” said SRK.
He added, “I can assure you, the film will entertain you a lot, and you will have a lot of fun.”
During the event, SRK humorously referenced a reel of his past blockbusters playing on the screen behind him, saying, “‘Shah Rukh Khan in and as Pathaan’, ‘Shah Rukh Khan in and as Dunki’, ‘Shah Rukh Khan in and as Jawan’.. Bohot ho gaya. Now, ‘Shah Rukh Khan as Shah Rukh Khan… King.'” He then quipped, “thoda show-off hogaya.”
The filming schedule is reportedly planned to last 6 to 7 months and will be shot across various locations worldwide. The movie is slated for 2026 release.
King is also expected to feature his daughter Suhana Khan, and Abhishek Bachchan, who is rumored to play the antagonist.
