Shah Rukh Khan and Siddharth Anand are extremely happy with how the script of King has shaped up.” they added.
Sharing details about the film’s release date, they said, “It’s a 6 to 7-month schedule, planned all across the globe and the makers are committed to bring the film to the big screen in 2026.”
While the film has most of its cast in place, the makers are still at work to cast the leading actress of the project. The source revealed that the announcement will be made soon.
