Bollywood stars Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone are currently shooting for their upcoming film King in South Africa, where several leaked visuals from the set have recently gone viral online.

The images reportedly show the two actors holding hands, suggesting they may be filming a romantic or song sequence, sparking strong excitement among fans ahead of the film's release.
However, the circulation of these unofficial photos has also raised concerns.
Director Siddharth Anand took to X (formerly Twitter) to issue a firm appeal to fans and social media users, requesting them not to share or circulate any leaked material from the sets.
He emphasised that the team is working "round the clock" to deliver a high-quality cinematic experience and urged audiences to wait for the intended promotional reveals so that the film's surprises are preserved.
King is one of the most anticipated upcoming Bollywood films and is scheduled for a grand theatrical release on December 24, 2026, positioning it as a major Christmas release.
The project reunites Anand with Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone after their successful collaboration on Pathaan (2023), which was a major box office hit.
The film is being produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures and is expected to feature a high-octane action narrative.
Recent official glimpses have shown Shah Rukh Khan in a darker, more intense avatar, further building anticipation around the project.
The ensemble cast also includes Abhishek Bachchan, Suhana Khan, and Saurabh Shukla in pivotal roles.
With growing buzz and heightened expectations, the makers are urging fans to avoid spoilers so the film's theatrical experience remains intact. (Agencies)
