Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone are set for another major King schedule, with the two stars gearing up to shoot a song in Mumbai from October 26. The latest development adds fresh momentum to Siddharth Anand’s ambitious action film, which has remained one of the most closely watched Hindi projects currently in production.
The song will be choreographed by Vaibhavi Merchant, continuing her long-running creative association with Shah Rukh Khan, marking this song as their eighth collaboration. Their last collaboration was on Jawan, and this new schedule now brings one of Hindi cinema’s most bankable pairings back together on set once again.
New Mumbai Schedule Begins On October 26
Preparations are currently underway for the song shoot, which is expected to continue in Mumbai for about a week. With the film moving through a crucial phase of production, the latest schedule is significant not just for the Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone reunion, but also for where King now stands in its larger filming timeline.
The update follows a steady run of production activity around the film in recent months, with the makers pushing ahead on key portions as they work toward its theatrical release later this year. The Mumbai shoot is now expected to be one of the film’s notable late-stage schedules.
Shah Rukh Khan And Deepika Padukone’s King Reunion
King marks the sixth film collaboration between Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. Their pairing began with Om Shanti Om in 2007 and continued with Chennai Express in 2013 and Happy New Year in 2014. In 2023, they shared screen space again in Pathaan and Jawan, two of the year’s biggest Hindi releases.
That track record has given their on-screen reunion in King an added layer of anticipation. Over the years, the two stars have built one of the most recognisable commercial pairings in contemporary Hindi cinema, and every fresh update around their scenes together tends to draw strong attention.
South Africa Shoot And Film Details
Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone had earlier filmed a romantic dance sequence for King in South Africa. The latest update now points to another song schedule in Mumbai from October 26.
Directed by Siddharth Anand, King features Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Jaideep Ahlawat and Abhay Verma. Backed by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, the film is slated to release in cinemas this Christmas.
Shah Rukh Khan’s Recent And Upcoming Work
For Shah Rukh Khan, King follows a remarkable 2023 run with Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki. While Pathaan and Jawan reaffirmed his hold over large-scale theatrical entertainers, Dunki offered a more emotionally driven role under Rajkumar Hirani’s direction. With King now entering another major song schedule, the film stands as his next big-screen release and one of the biggest Hindi theatrical titles lined up for 2026.
