Anirudh Reacts To Ed Sheeran Rumours
In a conversation with Bombay Times, Anirudh Ravichander was asked whether Ed Sheeran is part of the soundtrack for King. While he clarified that nothing has been finalised yet, his answer has certainly kept the speculation alive.
“That was just an idea. It hasn’t been executed yet. But it may happen… either that or something big is on the cards,” he said.
That one statement has been enough to trigger a fresh wave of discussion online.
Why Fans Believe Ed Sheeran Could Join King
The excitement isn’t coming from nowhere. Last year, Ed Sheeran had confirmed that he recorded a Hindi song for a Shah Rukh Khan film, though he did not reveal the movie’s name at the time.
During a behind-the-scenes clip from Sapphire, Ed shared in the comments, “The Hindi song was for a Bollywood movie Shah Rukh Khan is doing, this is the Punjabi version of Sapphire with Arijit. I’m just doing all languages at this point.”
Since then, many fans have strongly believed that the film in question could be King.
Shah Rukh Khan’s King Already Has Massive Buzz
Directed by Siddharth Anand, King is among the most talked-about upcoming Bollywood releases. The film also marks SRK’s first on-screen collaboration with daughter Suhana Khan. This has made the movie even more special for audiences.
The title announcement in November 2025 created major noise online, especially with Shah Rukh Khan’s intense silver-haired look and his striking dialogue, “Darr nahi, Dehshat hoon.”
Star-Studded Cast And Christmas Release
Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, King reportedly features Shah Rukh Khan as a seasoned assassin in a dark underworld setting, while Suhana Khan plays his protege.
The cast includes Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Rani Mukerji, Arshad Warsi, Abhay Verma and Raghav Juyal.
The film is scheduled to release on 24 December 2026, setting up what could be one of the biggest festive box office events of the year.
