The title reveal of Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film King has set social media abuzz with fans celebrating and Trollers quick to join the conversation.
The action-packed teaser showed SRK in a yellow-brown jacket and blue shirt, a look that sparked comparisons with Brad Pitt’s outfit in the Hollywood racing drama F1. Memes and side-by-side images went viral, accusing the makers of copying.
However, fans were quick to counter. They pointed out that SRK sported a similar style in his 2017 film Jab Harry Met Sejal, long before either King or F1. For them, this wasn’t imitation it was a familiar, stylish callback to SRK’s trademark charm.
The trolling reflects a wider trend where fashion overlaps are mistaken for plagiarism. In cinema, styles often repeat, evolve, and reappear especially when they’re tied to an actor’s persona.
For Shah Rukh Khan, this look seems like a deliberate nod to his own filmography, not a copy of Western cinema. Despite online noise, fans have responded positively, calling the teaser a strong step in SRK’s ongoing comeback journey.
