Bollywood megastar Shah Rukh Khan recently hosted another #AskSRK session on X (formerly Twitter), where fans eagerly bombarded him with questions about his upcoming projects and co-stars.
Excitement Over Reunion with Rani Mukerji
One fan couldn’t contain their excitement about seeing the superstar reunite with actress Rani Mukerji in SRK’s upcoming movie King. The fan asked him to name his favourite film with Rani. Shah Rukh Khan warmly replied, “I love Rani with or without films,” which quickly captured attention online.
Reunion with Deepika Padukone
Another fan expressed enthusiasm about Shah Rukh Khan’s reunion with Deepika Padukone in the same film, saying, “So excited to see you and DP together again.” Shah Rukh Khan responded, “Me too haha.” However, amidst all the buzz, there has been no official confirmation from the makers regarding Rani Mukerji’s involvement in King. While online reports hint at her returning, neither the production team nor other actors have confirmed it yet.
A Long-Standing Chemistry
Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji’s relationship spans over two decades, with the duo collaborating on iconic films like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, and Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone have enjoyed a successful partnership for over 16 years, working together in hit films such as Om Shanti Om (2007), Chennai Express (2013), Happy New Year (2014), and Pathaan (2023).
Deepika made her Bollywood debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Om Shanti Om, which became a massive blockbuster. Since then, a strong cinematic bond has developed between the two.
What’s Next for King
While details about King remain tightly under wraps, the film is reportedly produced by Red Chillies Entertainment in collaboration with Siddharth Anand’s Marvelix Pictures. Fans can expect the first look of the movie to be revealed on November 2, coinciding with Shah Rukh Khan’s birthday.
