Amid reports of superstar Shah Rukh Khan getting injured on the sets of Siddharth Anand's King at a studio in Mumbai, NDTV reported such rumours are untrue quoting a source.
Media reports on Saturday said even though the back injury isn't serious, the incident caused a delay in the schedule of King and is now expected to resume shooting in September. There were also mentions of Khan travelling to the US and then eventually relocating to the UK, where he is recovering.
The 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 further revealed that he left for America in the second week of July and is expected to return by the end of the month, the report said.
There has been no confirmation from either Shah Rukh Khan or his team on the ongoing speculations about the latest incident.
King is touted to be an action thriller that will reunite Shah Rukh Khan with his Pathaan director Siddharth Anand. The movie has generated considerable buzz for bringing Khan's daughter Suhana to the big screen, after the debut of her Netflix film 'The Archies'.
The movie is slated for a theatrical release sometime between October and December 2026, NDTV reported.
Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Rani Mukerji, Jackie Shroff, Arshad Warsi and Abhay Verma are among the some reportedly being cast in King.
