Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, alongside his daughter Suhana Khan, will make a comeback to the silver screen after Jawan. The father-daughter duo will be seen together in the much-anticipated film King. Directed by Sujoy Ghosh, the forthcoming project will feature Siddharth Anand as the co-director.
King marks Suhana Khan’s debut in a leading role after her stint in Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies. The project, currently in its pre-production phase, has already ignited immense excitement among fans and industry insiders alike.
According to Bollywood Hungama, King will be a raw and rustic action-packed extravaganza. With a staggering budget of $20 million, the film aims to set new standards in Indian cinema. King will be produced by Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment, which means the actor will also be the film’s producer. This investment underscores Shah Rukh Khan’s unwavering commitment to delivering world-class entertainment.
Suhana Khan’s King to have international stunt directors
Siddharth Anand, known for his vision and penchant for international collaborations, is reportedly in discussions with acclaimed international stunt directors. The aim is to infuse the film with high-octane action sequences that resonate globally. By blending real action with cutting-edge visual effects, King aspires to be a groundbreaking cinematic experience.
While details about Shah Rukh Khan’s role in the project remain speculative, insiders hint at his significant involvement beyond just acting. As the driving force behind Red Chillies Entertainment, Khan hopes for the success of his upcoming project. His role likely extends to strategic planning, creative input, and leveraging his star power to propel the project to greater heights.
The anticipation surrounding King is evident. The film will begin shooting in May for five months. Makers have tentatively scheduled the release date for the latter half of 2025.
Now, Bollywood gears up for the return of its beloved icon with the emergence of new talent. At the same time, King endeavors to leave an indelible mark on the industry landscape.
