The July-August shoot schedule of King has been cancelled. Filming is now expected to resume sometime after September. Till then, he’s been told to focus on recovery and return to the set cautiously.

About Shah Rukh Khan’s King
King is being directed by Siddharth Anand and stars Suhana Khan and Saurabh Shukla alongside Shah Rukh Khan. While there’s no official confirmation yet, reports suggest that Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, Abhishek Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Raghav Juyal, and Anil Kapoor are also part of the ensemble cast.
Jaideep Ahlawat recently confirmed that he’s part of the film as well. Speaking to Lallantop, he shared how he came on board, saying that Shah Rukh had been considering him for the role for a while. Apparently, Siddharth Anand was initially unsure about offering a smaller role after Jewel Thief, but SRK personally reached out to him—something that’s hard to say no to.
The film is currently in production, and a release date has not yet been announced.
