Deepika Padukone was in the news after exiting Kalki Part 2. While some fans supported her, others felt the makers were right to remove her. The discussions kept trending online.
Amidst the debate, Deepika shared a heartfelt post about her first day on the sets of King with Shah Rukh Khan. She posted a picture of their hands holding, recalling a valuable lesson from their first film together.
She wrote that while filming Om Shanti Om almost 18 years ago, Shah Rukh taught her that the joy of making a movie and the bonds you form matter more than its success. She agreed with this and said the lesson has guided all her decisions since.
Deepika also added that perhaps this is why they are back working together for the sixth time. Fans were quick to celebrate, calling the reunion special.
This project marks the duo’s sixth collaboration, and the excitement is high. From Om Shanti Om to now, Deepika and Shah Rukh remain one of Bollywood’s most loved on-screen pairs.
At the same time, reports suggest Deepika opted out of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit and Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2 to join SRK in King. Speculation is rife about whether she left those projects due to disagreements or because she did not want to miss this film.
Whatever the reason, the anticipation is soaring as audiences wait eagerly for another Shah Rukh and Deepika reunion.
