Sid Anand’s Fighter Post: SRK Fans Nervous About King

Siddharth Anand has sparked fresh discussion after his recent social media post. His upcoming film King, starring Shah Rukh Khan and Suhana, is slated for a Christmas release this year. Fans of the SRK King film are closely tracking every update.

The director recently called Fighter one of his best works. He shared the post on X as the aerial action film completed two years since release. The statement surprised many, as Fighter received a mixed response from audiences.

Siddharth Anand said he felt proud while revisiting scenes from Fighter. He mentioned moments like the Minni and father sequence, the cemetery scene, and other emotional beats. These memories, according to him, reflected his journey while making the film.

However, the praise has not gone down well with a section of viewers. Many feel Fighter was underwhelming. This has led SRK fans to worry if similar creative choices could impact the SRK King film.

Pathaan worked largely due to scale, familiar storytelling, and Shah Rukh Khan’s star power. With King featuring a larger ensemble, trade observers remain unsure if the same formula will succeed again under similar execution.

Concerns have also risen around the Christmas release window, which has not favoured Bollywood recently. While early glimpses of King have generated some excitement, audiences believe upcoming promotions will shape the final perception.
