Shah Rukh Khan’s King has entered its most crucial stretch yet. With the film locked for a December 24, 2026 release, Siddharth Anand is back on set in Mumbai, filming high-stakes action scenes while also prepping a newly added song featuring Suhana Khan.
The fresh schedule began on October 11 in Goregaon, and from October 12, the production moved into an action sequence with Shah Rukh at a studio in Andheri East. The action portions will be wrapped by mid-October, after which Anand will shift to the new song, a dance track designed around Suhana. It gives King one more big-screen flourish as the film powers toward its Christmas release.
A source close to the production revealed, “The cast and crew resumed shooting on Sunday. From October 12, they began filming an action sequence with Shah Rukh at a studio in Andheri East. The idea is to wrap up all the action portions by mid-October after which Siddharth will turn his attention to the song that has been recently added.”
Final Mumbai Schedule Underway
This leg of the shoot brings together two of the film’s biggest attractions, Shah Rukh in a full-scale action setup and Suhana in a prominent song sequence. Choreographers Piyush Bhagat and Shazia Samji are designing the track, which will be shot on a massive set in Film City. Alongside the shoot, the team is also completing the film’s visual effects ahead of release.
That combination of stylised action, polished spectacle and the Shah Rukh-Suhana pairing has kept King firmly on the industry’s watchlist. Every update from the set only adds to the curiosity around how Siddharth Anand is shaping the father-daughter collaboration for the big screen.
Cast And Film Details
Directed by Siddharth Anand, King is an action thriller that marks the first on-screen film collaboration between Shah Rukh Khan and Suhana Khan. The film also features Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, Abhishek Bachchan and Jaideep Ahlawat in key roles, giving it one of the most star-studded ensembles in recent Hindi cinema.
For Suhana, the film is a major theatrical move after her acting debut in Netflix’s The Archies in 2023. In King, she steps into a much larger commercial space, with a role that places her alongside some of the industry’s most established names and under the direction of a filmmaker known for slick, high-energy spectacle.
Shah Rukh Khan’s Recent And Upcoming Work
King arrives at an interesting point in Shah Rukh Khan’s career. His 2023 run with Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki reminded audiences of his range across scale, swagger and emotion, while also reasserting his hold over the theatrical box office. Since then, every move on his next feature has drawn unusual attention, especially one that pairs him on screen with Suhana for the first time.
As of October 13, 2026, King stands as his next confirmed release, and that alone gives it weight. It is not just another star vehicle. It carries the momentum of Shah Rukh’s last big-screen phase, the intrigue of a first-time family collaboration, and the commercial muscle of a Siddharth Anand action film mounted for the year-end holiday corridor.
