"100 desho’n mein badnaam, duniya ne diya sirf ek hi naam," 'KING,' Shah Rukh was heard saying.
Sharing the initial glimpse of the drama on social media, makers, Red Chillies Entertainment, penned, "Sau deshon mein badnaam, Duniya ne diya sirf ek hi naam-#KING #KingTitleReveal It’s Showtime! In cinemas 2026 (sic)."
