There has been a lot of buzz recently about Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan possibly working with Mythri Movie Makers, the famous production house behind the Pushpa film series. Some even believed that director Sukumar, who made Pushpa, might direct this project. However, a new report has cleared up all these rumours.
No Talks Between Shah Rukh Khan and Mythri Movie Makers
According to a recent report by Pinkvilla, Shah Rukh Khan is not in talks with Mythri Movie Makers for any new movie. A source close to the actor told the portal, “Shah Rukh Khan is currently focused completely on his upcoming film King. He will decide on his next film after finishing King, which will be sometime towards the end of 2025. As of now, he has not met with the team at Mythri, so there’s no script being discussed or approved.”
This means that the much-talked-about collaboration between SRK and Mythri is not happening—at least not anytime soon.
Shah Rukh Khan Busy Shooting for ‘King’ Till 2026
The source further explained that Shah Rukh Khan will be busy with King until the first quarter of 2026. Only after wrapping up that movie will he decide what project to take up next.
“There are many film scripts being offered to him from various filmmakers,” the insider added. “But SRK will take a final decision on his next film only towards the end of 2025. So far, none of those offers are from Mythri Movie Makers.”
This update may come as a disappointment for fans who were excited about seeing Shah Rukh Khan in a film backed by the makers of Pushpa, but it also confirms that the actor is carefully planning his future projects.
What We Know About Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘King’
Currently, Shah Rukh Khan is working on King, a high-octane action film directed by Siddharth Anand, who also made hits like Pathaan and War. King is being made on a grand scale and shows SRK in a gangster avatar.
The source shared, “In King, Shah Rukh will bring back the charm of Don, but this time his character will be even more massy and powerful.”
One of the biggest highlights of King is that it will be the big-screen debut of SRK’s daughter, Suhana Khan. She will play a student who trains under her father’s character for deadly missions. The film also boasts a star-studded cast, including Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, Anil Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, Arshad Warsi, Jackie Shroff, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Abhay Verma.
When Will ‘King’ Release?
Filming for King has already started in Mehboob Studios in Mumbai, and the movie is expected to hit theatres in 2026. Although no official release date has been confirmed, strong buzz suggests it may release around Gandhi Jayanti.
Conclusion
While fans may have to wait a bit longer to see Shah Rukh Khan work with Mythri Movie Makers, it’s clear that the actor has his plate full. With King shaping up to be one of his most exciting films, audiences have plenty to look forward to. And once King wraps up, only time will tell what SRK chooses for his next big screen outing.
