After a long wait, Shah Rukh Khan had a blockbuster success with Pathaan. Now, the latest we know is that the superstar is collaborating with Siddharth Anand again for another action-packed thriller.
The shocking part is that the makers have decided on a massive star cast for the film. Yes, the upcoming drama, named King, features SRK and Deepika Padukone in lead, with Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Arshad Warsi, and Abhay Verma in key roles.

King also marks the big screen launch of Suhana Khan. But wait! It does not stop here. Rani Mukerji, who has earlier worked with Shah Rukh Khan in films like Chalte Chalte and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, will also be seen in the film.
What was initially a small-budget action film has now become a bigger project with too many people onboard!

Considering the ongoing situation, the film could have been titled “King-zilla.” So many stars together – it is something that we get to see in big districts.
This reminds us of Kalank, which, despite having a huge and stellar star cast, could not win the hearts of the audiences. Of course, Shah Rukh is a brand in himself, but even he couldn’t save Zero from bombing at the box office.

One more question is that with so many people onboard, will every actor get the screen space they deserve? This is not a Marvel film where everyone has their own story.
At a time when audiences are rejecting several Bollywood films due to cold storylines and wrong castings, the makers of King should think twice before starting on this huge project.
