In a surprising turn of events, Bollywood megastar Shahrukh Khan is set to take on a parallel lead role alongside his daughter Suhana Khan in the upcoming film “King.” Initially slated as a cameo appearance for Shahrukh Khan, recent developments have reshaped the narrative, placing him at the forefront of the film’s storyline.

The decision to elevate Shahrukh Khan’s role to a lead position comes after a series of discussions and revisions to the script in the past few days. This move marks a significant departure from the film’s original concept and underscores the star power and influence of the Khan family in the Indian film industry.

Scheduled to commence shooting in August or September, “King” is expected to hit the screens in the second half of 2025. Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix, the venture spearheaded by Siddarth Anand promises to be a cinematic spectacle.

Notably, “King” holds special significance as it marks the theatrical debut of Shahrukh Khan’s daughter, Suhana Khan. The young talent is poised to make a remarkable entrance into Bollywood under the guidance of seasoned director Sujoy Ghosh.

With the father-daughter duo sharing the spotlight in “King,” anticipation for the film has reached unprecedented levels. As the project gears up for production, fans eagerly await the unveiling of this dynamic on-screen pairing, poised to captivate audiences with their charisma and talent.
