Amid reports that Shah Rukh Khan’s next film, King, might get delayed, the Bollywood superstar has now confirmed that it is not the case. On Tuesday, SRK conducted an ‘Ask Me Anything’ session on X (formerly
Twitter) when he revealed that King is not getting postponed and will hit theatres as scheduled, i.e. on December 24, 2026.
Asking SRK about an update on King, one of the users asked, “Sir KING ka kuch update do….3 saal pehle last movie dekhi thi aapki theaters mein…aur kitna tarsao ge ek trailer ke liye hi?” To this, the actor wrote, “Ab picture hi dekho na! Tarsa nahi raha join acchhi wali bana raha hoon….ke Dil ko tasalli mile….Sab ayega…24th Dec se pehle.”
Responding to another user on X, Shah Rukh Khan revealed that he had multiple injuries during King shoot due to which the schedule was halted for some time. “Had a few injuries while shooting so had to start stop many times but now all broken is fixed…and nearly all done…so all good,” he wrote.

“Everything in #King …worked very hard to entertain as many as possible. The action the songs the actors and of course my hair!!!” SRK said about his upcoming film while responding to another user.
An action thriller directed by Siddharth Anand, King has already generated significant buzz, not only because it marks SRK’s return to the big screen after Dunki, but also because it brings together a massive ensemble cast and features his daughter Suhana Khan in a key role. The film also stars Deepika Padukone and Abhishek Bachchan in the lead. Not much details about the film’s plot are known as of now.
