The wait is over! Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has returned with a bang, and his first look in the upcoming film ‘King’ is already the talk of the town. Director Sidharth Anand unveiled the teaser on Instagram, perfectly timed with Khan’s birthday. The sneak peek immediately captivated audiences as SRK appeared in a striking, menacing persona, complete with silver hair and a bloodied face, hinting at a character steeped in chaos.
Clutching a King of Hearts card, Khan flips it towards the camera before delivering a chilling dialogue that perfectly encapsulates his character’s enigmatic and formidable nature: “Kitne khoon kiye ye yaad nahi. Ache log they ya bure kabhi pucha nahi. Bas unki aankhon me ehsas dekha, ye unki aakhri saans hai. Aur main uski wajah. Hazaar jurm, 100 deshon me badnam, duniya ne diya, sirf ek hi naam. Darr nahi deh shat hoon.” (I don’t remember how many I’ve killed. Were they good or bad? I never asked. I only saw the emotions in their eyes, that this is their last breath, and I am the reason for it. A thousand crimes, notorious in a hundred countries, the world gave only one name. I am not fear, I am chaos).
This glimpse promises a fresh experience for SRK fans, blending intense action, gripping drama, and psychological depth in a way rarely seen from the actor.
The online reaction has been overwhelming, with fans flooding social media with excited comments like “My lord… he is back and how!” and predictions of box office records being shattered. The teaser has also quelled rumors of delays, with fans celebrating the confirmed 2026 release date, anticipating another ₹1000 crore blockbuster.
Beyond Khan’s magnetic performance, ‘King’ boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Suhana Khan, Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Arshad Warsi, and Anil Kapoor. Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, the film is slated for a 2026 release. Following the massive success of his last film, ‘Jawan’, for which he also received a National Film Award, ‘King’ is expected to further solidify Khan’s legendary status and deliver a cinematic experience that pushes boundaries.
