Shah Rukh Khan aka King Khan is all set to team up with Pushpa director Sukumar. There are reports that the film might be a thriller, like SRK’s 1994 movie Anjaam, where he played a dark and intense role.
According to a recent Mid-Day report, this project will see “King Khan” step into the shoes of an anti-hero, blending his unparalleled mass appeal with his global superstar persona in a raw, rustic, and quintessentially desi role.”
The yet-untitled film is poised to explore hard-hitting social themes such as caste and class oppression, offering a narrative that goes beyond mere entertainment.
“King Khan will play an anti-hero, but this will be a rural political action drama that promises to show him in a raw, rustic, and desi avatar,” a source told Mid-Day.
However, Sukumar is currently working on RC 17 with Ram Charan, Pushpa 3: The Rampage, and a romantic drama also starring Ram. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan has his hands full with King, an action-packed venture set to begin filming in May 2025 in a start-to-finish schedule, and Pathaan 2, the much-anticipated sequel to his 2023 blockbuster.
