Shah Rukh Khan, who ruled the box office in 2023 with blockbusters like Pathan, Jawan, and Dunki, seems to be taking a break for a while. Fans have been eagerly waiting for his next release, but the latest reports suggest that they might have to wait until 2026 for his upcoming film King.
The year 2023 was a historic one for Shah Rukh, with two back-to-back films crossing the 1000 crore mark. His pairing with Deepika Padukone became a massive hit, and fans were thrilled to see him return after a 4-year gap. However, 2024 will not see any new Shah Rukh releases, as the superstar is now focusing on a special project—his daughter Suhana Khan’s Bollywood debut in King.
Shah Rukh Khan and Suhana Khan to Star Together in King
King is a highly anticipated film where Shah Rukh Khan will be seen sharing the screen with his daughter Suhana for the first time. Directed by Sujoy Ghosh and produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Siddharth Anand, King is currently in its pre-production phase. The shooting is expected to begin in January 2025.
The father-daughter duo will play the lead roles, while Abhishek Bachchan is reportedly going to play the villain. Shah Rukh wants everything to be perfect for Suhana’s debut, which is why he has taken a break from other projects to focus entirely on this film. With action scenes and script improvements still in progress, King is shaping up to be a grand release.
No Releases in 2024 and 2025
Unfortunately for Shah Rukh’s fans, the actor will not have any films releasing in 2024 or 2025. This is because he is dedicating all his time to King and ensuring that Suhana’s debut is nothing short of spectacular. However, once the filming for King is complete, fans can expect Shah Rukh to get back into action mode with other big projects.

What’s Next After King?
After the release of King in 2026, Shah Rukh Khan is likely to start working on Pathan 2, the sequel to his 2023 hit Pathan. Fans are eagerly waiting to see Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan together again in YRF’s Spy Universe. When the two Khans appeared together in Pathan, the film became a massive hit, earning over 1000 crores. Their magic was also seen in Tiger 3, and fans are hoping for the same excitement in Pathan 2.
While the wait may seem long, fans can rest assured that Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming projects are going to be worth it. King promises to be a unique and special film with a touching father-daughter story, and Pathan 2 will bring back the action-packed entertainment that fans love.
