On his 60th birthday last November, the makers unveiled the actor’s character trough a small teaser that sent fans into a frenzy. Now, fans speculate that the release date will be announced soon. And the major reason for this speculation is director Siddharth Anand’s recent cryptic tweets.

Shah Rukh Khan had previously spoken about the movie at Locarno Film Festival and said, “It is an action drama; it’s a Hindi film. It’ll be interesting. I’ve been wanting to do a film like that for some time, and I really wanted to do a film like this for seven or eight years…My director, Siddharth Anand, is very strict. He made Pathaan also. He has asked me not to reveal what we are doing. I can’t tell you, but I can assure you that it will be entertaining. You will enjoy it.”

King boasts of an ensemble cast including SRK in the lead, along with his daughter Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Abhay Verma, Rani Mukerji, Jaideep Ahlawat, Deepika Padukone, Arshad Warsi, Raghav Juyal and Saurabh Shukla, among others.
