Makers Planning A Big Birthday Surprise
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, the makers of King are planning an official announcement of the film on SRK’s special day, along with the release of his first look.

What We Know About ‘King’ So Far
King is described as a massive action drama directed by Siddharth Anand, known for blockbusters like Pathaan and War. The film is expected to combine high-octane action with deep emotional layers, a hallmark of Anand’s storytelling.
The movie stars Shah Rukh Khan in the lead role, with his daughter Suhana Khan playing a pivotal part — marking their first on-screen collaboration.
Star-Studded Ensemble Cast
Apart from the father-daughter duo, King also features a stellar ensemble including Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Rani Mukerji, Jaideep Ahlawat, Arshad Warsi, Raghav Juyal, Akshay Oberoi, Jackie Shroff, and Karanvir Malhotra. Munjya actor Abhay Verma will also be seen in a significant role.

“It is an action drama. I’ve been wanting to do a film like this for some time. We just felt Siddharth would be the right choice, because we wanted it to be very emotionally correct.”
He further shared during an event in Abu Dhabi,
“My director, Siddharth Anand, is very strict. He made Pathaan also. He has asked me not to reveal what we are doing. I can’t tell you, but I can assure you it will be entertaining.”

With Shah Rukh Khan turning 60 and King set to mark his grand return to the action genre, anticipation is sky-high. If the reports turn out to be true, SRK’s birthday might bring the most royal gift his fans could ask for — the first glimpse of the King himself.
