SRK’s King in Trouble or PR Drama to Avoid a Bigger Clash?

Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film King has reportedly faced another delay. The film’s planned shoot schedule in Dubai has now been cancelled.

The team was expected to begin a week-long schedule from April 9. However, the makers decided to postpone it due to safety concerns linked to the ongoing situation in the region.

According to reports, the decision was taken to ensure the safety of the cast and crew. The team did not want to take any risks amid uncertain conditions.

This adds to the film’s existing delays. There have already been reports about reshoots, script changes, and late additions to the cast.

While the official reason is safety, social media has its own theories. Some users believe the delay could be part of a strategy rather than a necessity.

Many are linking this to a possible box office clash with Avengers: Doomsday. They feel the makers may want to avoid direct competition.

Other big releases like Dune 3 and Jumanji 4 are also expected around the same period. This makes the release window more crowded.

According to online discussions, postponing the film could help secure better screens and visibility. It may also allow the team to pick a more favourable release date.

For now, there is no official confirmation about any change in release plans. It remains to be seen how the makers of King move forward.
