After months of speculation, fans finally got the first glimpse of Shah Rukh Khan in the Siddharth Anand directorial. The film’s title, King, perfectly aligns with SRK’s iconic moniker ‘King Khan’. The teaser introduces the superstar in a never-seen-before avatar — sporting a blonde look and short hair. It marks SRK’s powerful return to the action genre after his back-to-back blockbusters Pathaan and Jawan.
In the teaser, Shah Rukh Khan is seen performing high-octane stunts and taking down enemies one after another, declaring that he’s not just “dar” (fear) but “dahshat” (terror). The tagline of the film promises a “new Shah Rukh Khan experience.” The actor also took to social media to share the title reveal video with fans. His caption read, “Sau deshon mein badnaam, Duniya ne diya sirf ek hi naam – #KING #KingTitleReveal It’s Showtime! In Cinemas 2026.”
Director Siddharth Anand joined in the excitement, sharing a witty one-word tweet that read simply, “King.” Interestingly, the filmmaker had been dropping subtle hints all week, tweeting one word at a time and prompting fans to complete the phrase, “Remember there is only one King.”
For the fan event, Shah Rukh Khan is dressed in a light beige jacket layered over a black t-shirt, paired with blue jeans and beige sneakers. He accessorizes the look with a black skull-print beanie, sunglasses, and a silver wristwatch.
Shah Rukh Khan posted on X, "Have been advised by authorities that I will not be able to step out and greet all you lovely people who have been waiting for me. My deepest apologies to all of you but have been informed that it is for the overall safety of everyone due to crowd control issues. Thank you for understanding and believe me… I will miss seeing you more than you will. Was looking forward to seeing you all and sharing love. Love u all."
Shah Rukh Khan is all set to descend at the fan meet being held in Bandra, Mumbai.
Karan Johar took to Instagram and wrote, "I have such a vivid and distinct memory of meeting you Bhai, on the sets of Karan Arjun… I went expecting the aura and magic of a rising superstar but instead met a magical man with a beating heart….

Your consistent kindness and generosity of spirit is just as iconic as your wide open arms (which should be officialised as a national gesture) Bhai… the repertoire of cinema and projection of love that you have given to zillions of your fans across the globe makes you so much more than a mega movie star…it makes you an emotion…an emotion some of us are privileged to experience every day! I love you so much Bhai… thank you for being there through thick and thin and being family to Yash, Roohi, Mom and I…Always and forever…Happy Birthday!!! This Decade like every decade will be yours!!!! @iamsrk."

Shashi Tharoor took to X to share a long note on Shah Rukh Khan. He wrote, "Happy 60th Birthday to the ultimate King of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan @iamsrk ! I have to admit, I'm finding this "60" number deeply suspicious. A crack team of independent fact-checkers and forensic detectives investigated this "60" claim & concluded: "In the complete and absolute absence of any discernible visual evidence—specifically, no non-photoshopped grey hair, no undeniable signs of slowing down, and a persistent appearance of someone significantly younger—the claim that Shah Rukh Khan is turning 60 cannot be factually confirmed." I suspect the official story is a cover-up & that SRK is actually starring in a real-life, decades-long, global-scale Bollywood adaptation of 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.' He's ageing in reverse. Look at the evidence: 1. His energy levels today seem higher than they were 20 years ago. 2. His hairstyle has become progressively more youthful. 3. There are no wrinkles a decent lighting crew can't explain away. I predict by the time he hits his "70th" birthday, he'll be auditioning for teenage roles. Mercifully, I don’t expect to be around when he turns into a child star. Congratulations on this unbelievable milestone, Shah Rukh! Please keep defying physics and biology, & confusing us all for many years to come. #happybirthdaysrk #kingkhan."
