According to the latest sources, 'King' will be released in May of this year and Siddharth Anand and Sujoy Ghosh had frequent contact with Shah Rukh Khan and Suhana Khan, meeting many times. Sujoy is painstakingly working on the writing alongside Sid and SRK. Siddharth is solely responsible for designing world-class action scenes.
The training is taking place at Mannat, and Suhana is joined by her father, Shah Rukh Khan, in certain practice sessions. Trainers of international acclaim are coming together to train Suhana and SRK, as King explores a slightly raw type of movement.

As per reports, the film will be action-based and will be extremely different from what SRK has done in 'Pathaan' and 'Jawan'. This one would be stylish, with plenty of chase scenes. However, the central plot is emotional and story-driven. It has many twists and turns, which is why Sujoy has been assigned the job of directing.

The film 'King' has a large budget of Rs 200 crore, according to reports. A person with knowledge stated that the team has been working on the pre-production for the last year to ensure that all aspects are covered in the right way.
