Shah Rukh Khan’s next big release, “King,” is one of the most highly anticipated Bollywood films set for a 2026 debut. Directed by Siddharth Anand, known for his blockbuster action thrillers, the film promises to deliver a high-octane mix of action, drama, and emotional depth.
“King” features Shah Rukh Khan in a powerful role that revolves around a mentor-protege relationship. Notably, Khan’s daughter, Suhana Khan, is making her acting debut alongside him, playing his protege. The movie also stars major talents including Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, Abhishek Bachchan as the antagonist, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Arshad Warsi, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Abhay Verma. This mix of seasoned actors and new talent adds to the film’s appeal and buzz.
The plot centers around Shah Rukh Khan’s character, a powerful don navigating the criminal underworld, who mentors Suhana’s character to survive and succeed in this dangerous environment. The storyline combines intense action sequences with intricate family dynamics and emotional moments. Reports suggest the film will explore themes of trust, power, and legacy, set against an international backdrop.
Filming began in 2025 with a rigorous 6-7 month shooting schedule planned across multiple countries. The makers have revealed that the film’s scale and production values are aimed to match the success of previous hits like “Pathaan,” also directed by Siddharth Anand. “King” is expected to be released worldwide in late 2026, strategically planned around the Gandhi Jayanti holiday weekend to maximize audience reach.
With Shah Rukh Khan’s recent success in hits like “Pathaan,” “Jawan,” and “Dunki,” fans have sky-high expectations for “King.” The film will mark a significant industry moment due to the father-daughter on-screen debut, also reuniting Khan with veteran actress Rani Mukerji. Given the stellar cast, seasoned director, and ambitious production, “King” is poised to be one of Bollywood’s biggest blockbusters in 2026, promising thrilling entertainment and emotional storytelling.
