Shah Rukh Khan Suffers Injury During King Shoot, Flies To US For Treatment: Report
Shah Rukh Khan suffers a muscle injury on the sets of King while performing stunts. Filming is paused as SRK travels to the US for medical treatment.
Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming action-packed thriller King is easily among the most anticipated films of 2026. While fans have been eagerly tracking every update since filming began in May this year, recent news might come as a brief dampener.
According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, the superstar sustained an injury while shooting an intense action sequence at Golden Tobacco studio in Mumbai. Though the specifics of the injury remain confidential, insiders reveal that SRK has now flown to the United States for medical attention.
'It's not a serious injury, but more of a muscular strain," a source close to the production shared. 'Over the years, Shah Rukh has picked up multiple injuries from stunt work, and this seems to be a result of accumulated stress." The insider added that the actor's team opted for precautionary care abroad, ensuring he receives the best treatment available.
Doctors have reportedly advised SRK to take a complete break for at least a month. As a result, the film's shooting schedule has been paused. Locations such as Film City, Golden Tobacco, and YRF Studios were initially booked through July and August, but the bookings have now been cancelled until further notice. The next schedule is expected to resume sometime in September or October.
King, which marks yet another high-octane venture for SRK, boasts a massive ensemble cast including Abhishek Bachchan, Rani Mukerji, Deepika Padukone, Arshad Warsi, Abhay Verma, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Raghav Juyal, Jaideep Ahlawat, Saurabh Shukla, and Suhana Khan.
Though the official release date is yet to be confirmed, industry buzz suggests that the film was aiming for a Gandhi Jayanti 2026 release. However, with the current delay in production, it remains to be seen whether the film's timeline will be pushed further.
For now, fans will be hoping for a speedy recovery for King Khan and an equally powerful comeback when King returns to set.

Saiyaara Beats BLACKPINK, Billie Eilish, Justin Bieber To Top Spotify's Global Viral 50
Last Updated: Saiyaara becomes 1st Indian song to top Spotify Global Viral 50, beating BLACKPINK, Billie Eilish & Justin Bieber. A milestone moment for Indian music. The Saiyaara wave shows no signs of slowing down. The film's hauntingly beautiful title track has not only taken over Indian cinema halls but is now echoing across global playlists, creating history as the first-ever Indian song to top Spotify's Global Viral 50 chart. Sung by Faheem Abdullah and composed by Tanishk Bagchi, Saiyaara has surged past international music heavyweights like Justin Bieber, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, BLACKPINK, and Sabrina Carpenter, marking a watershed moment for Indian music on the world stage. Celebrating the milestone, composer Tanishk Bagchi shared a heartfelt post on Instagram, 'We did it. Saiyaara is now #1 on Global Viral Spotify. This moment belongs to every heartbeat behind the song." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Tanishk (@tanishk_bagchi) Bagchi went on to thank the creative team, writing, 'Thank you to Mohit Suri sir, the man with the vision. Irshad bhai, for penning words that pierced hearts. Arsalan & Faheem, your music and your voice brought the sky closer. YRF, for backing us with belief. And to every listener, every sharer, every dreamer — this is yours too." He concluded with a powerful declaration, 'Indian music isn't rising. It's already flying. Saiyaara is the proof." For years, Tanishk Bagchi's name has been synonymous with Bollywood hits—but also with controversy. Known for delivering chartbusters at lightning speed, the composer has often been criticised for relying too heavily on remakes. But with Saiyaara, the soulful title track from Mohit Suri's latest romantic drama, Bagchi feels he has finally broken free of the label—and found long-overdue vindication. 'People used to say that I only recreated songs. But they didn't know that I have composed a number of good original songs as well," he told Hindustan Times. 'Par ab Saiyaara se logo ko pata chal raha hai ki Tanishk Bagchi original mein bhi baap hai (People are finally realising that I'm a master at originals too). I'm really loving it all. I've received a lot of encouragement." Meanwhile, the film Saiyaara is rewriting box office records. Headlined by newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the Mohit Suri directorial opened with a staggering ₹21 crore, the highest-ever first-day collection for a debutant-led film. Within just eight days, it stormed past the ₹200 crore mark, with packed shows continuing to dominate theatres.
