SRK’s inclusion comes largely in recognition of his appearance at the 2025 Met Gala, where he made a striking impression as a first-time attendee.

He donned a bespoke all-black menswear outfit crafted by renowned Indian designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee, complemented by a crystal-studded pendant shaped like the letter “K”

According to The New York Times write-up: “Known by his army of fans simply as SRK, Bollywood’s biggest star and one of the world’s most famous actors brought the Met Gala into his orbit as a first-time guest. (He wore a design by Sabyasachi Mukherjee.)”

Shah Rukh Khan's Work Front

On the professional front, Shah Rukh Khan is also preparing for a major cinematic return with King, which will mark a highly anticipated reunion with director Siddharth Anand — the two previously collaborated on the 2023 blockbuster Pathaan. The film’s first look was unveiled on SRK’s 60th birthday (2 November 2025), generating considerable buzz.

King promises a star-studded ensemble cast, including actors Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Arshad Warsi, Jaideep Ahlawat, alongside several others.

Reports suggest Abhishek Bachchan may play the film’s main antagonist, adding further intrigue. The production is being backed by SRK’s own banner Red Chillies Entertainment in association with Siddharth Anand’s Marflix Pictures.
