Shah Rukh Khan is The King when it comes to ruling Bollywood. After making a phenomenal comeback in the year 2023 with three films and two 1000-crore blockbusters. Khan is returning as Don again!
Shah Rukh Khan will indeed appear as a Don in his upcoming project. But not in Don 3. As he has passed on the Don franchise to actor Ranveer Singh, who is leading the upcoming Don 3.

As per reports, Shah Rukh is expanding his “baddie universe” and will portray a morally ambiguous don-like character with grey shades in an upcoming film titled “The King”. This film will be directed by acclaimed director Sujoy Ghosh and presented by Siddharth Anand.

The King will not only feature Mr Khan. But also it will be a big-screen debut of Shah Rukh’s daughter, Suhana Khan. The film is being made on a massive budget of ₹200 crore and will have an intriguing story of a mentor and a disciple. Suhana is currently undergoing intensive action training for her role. There were reports that Shah Rukh would only have a supporting role, but now he will play the parallel lead, taking full control of his daughter’s debut.
