About Shah Rukh Khan's Latest Injury
Last month, several reports surfaced online, indicating that Shah Rukh Khan had suffered an injury on the sets of Siddharth Anand's King. Reports had suggested that even though the injury isn't serious, it has caused a delay in the schedule of King and is now expected to resume shooting in September.
However, a close source told NDTV that Shah Rukh Khan has sustained injuries during various shoots in the past, some of which occasionally flare up again. For treatment and care, he often travels to the US.
The source had further revealed that he left for America in the second week of July and was expected to return by the end of the month.
Earlier, too, there have been reports that he injured his nose during a shoot, but the truth was that it was a minor nasal surgery, not an injury from filming.
About King
King is touted to be an action thriller. It will reunite Shah Rukh Khan with his Pathaan director Siddharth Anand. The movie will see Shah Rukh Khan share screen space with his daughter, Suhana Khan, who made her acting debut with The Archies (2023).
The film is slated for a theatrical release sometime between October and December 2026.
According to several reports making the rounds, King will have several stars being a part of it, such as Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Rani Mukerji, Jackie Shroff, Arshad Warsi and Abhay Verma, to name a few.
In A Nutshell
Shah Rukh Khan confirmed that his next is King and Siddharth Anand is working hard to finish it on an #AskSRK session on X. The actor further mentioned that first they will begin with leg shots and then move to the upper body.

Shah Rukh Khan asked about on-set tantrums by fan, his answer is pure wit
Shah Rukh Khan surprised fans on Saturday evening by holding a special interactive #AskSRK session on his official X (formerly Twitter) account. During the chat, the Bollywood superstar answered questions ranging from his next film to his recent injury, and even spoke about his National Award win. When a fan asked, 'When is your next movie releasing? Is it King or any other movie?' the actor confirmed, 'Just KING….naam toh suna hoga?' Responding to another query about his project, Shah Rukh revealed that filming for King is already underway. He said, 'Did some good shoot….starting soon again. Only leg shots then move to upper body….Insha Allah will be done fast. @justSidAnand is working hard to finish.' The film is being directed by Siddharth Anand. A fan cheekily asked him about the most epic tantrum he had ever thrown on a film set, the superstar replied with characteristic humor:'Nobody allows me to throw tantrums on sets. Now on King even less, the director is so too strict and organised.' Shah Rukh recently won his first-ever National Award for Jawan. When a fan asked about the achievement, he responded, 'YAY!!!!! I feel like the King of the Nation!!! Too much honour and too much responsibility to try and excel and work harder!!' He had earlier expressed his gratitude on social media, writing, 'Thank you for honouring me with the National Award. Thanks to the jury, the I&B ministry… Iss samman ke liye Bharat Sarkar ka dhanyawaad. Overwhelmed with the love showered upon me. Half a hug to everyone today….' On the professional front, Shah Rukh was last seen in Rajkumar Hirani's Dunki, alongside Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal and Boman Irani. His next big project, King, is currently in the making and marks his on-screen collaboration with daughter Suhana Khan.
