Shah Rukh Khan locks his next full-fledged actioner The King opposite daughter Suhana Khan; film to be mounted on huge scale of Rs 200 cr

While a Bollywood Hungama report quoted Rs 200 crore as the budget of The King, the actioner is likely to fall in the same bracket–or more– of budget given the vision the team has for the film, the source said. The King will feature Shah Rukh Khan as a mentor to Suhana’s character and is reportedly going to be in the same zone as the 1994 acclaimed actioner Leon.

The King is expected to go on floors later this year, as the film is currently in pre-production. It is aiming to hit the screens in 2025. While Suhana Khan made her acting debut with The Archies last year, this would mark her first big screen outing.
