Jackie Shroff and Anil Kapoor team up again for Shah Rukh Khan’s 'King'

Shah Rukh Khan starrer King has been the talk of the town for quite a sometime. In a recent development, a solid ensemble has come on board for the action thriller, helmed by Siddharth Anand.

Apart from superstar Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, the film is reuniting the iconic Ram Lakhan duo, Jackie Shroff and Anil Kapoor in key roles. When Siddharth Anand narrated the world of King to Jackie Shroff and explained his character arc, Jaggu Dada took no time to give a nod to the thriller.

With Anil Kapoor and Jackie Shroff coming on board, King is said to consist of the largest ensemble in a feature film in recent times. Though the details of Jackie Shroff's role in King have been kept under wraps, it is being said that the actor will be presented in a very different light.

Overall, King brings together Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Anil Kapoor, Suhana Khan, Arshad Warsi, and Abhay Verma. To add the mass element, the makers of King have roped in action directors of international repute to design action stunts, making it look more credible and believable. Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix, the makers are eyeing to release Shah Rukh Khan's King in the last quarter of 2026.
