Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming gangster action drama King is expected to be dubbed in six languages, according to a report by Variety India cited by 123telugu.com. The film, directed by Siddharth Anand and marking Suhana Khan's debut, features Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, and Rani Mukerji among others. 123telugu.com says a multilingual release could boost the film's performance in southern markets.

Deccan Chronicle reports that the film's teaser will be released on SRK's birthday on 2 November 2026. The makers are also expected to play a promotional video alongside Ranbir Kapoor's Ramayana. Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, King is slated for a theatrical release on 24 December 2026.
123telugu.com sticks to straight reporting of the dubbing news and its market implications, while Deccan Chronicle leads with dramatic fan-service language, calling the November events a ‘double surprise’. Both agree on the cast, producer, release date and dubbing scope, the main difference is that Deccan Chronicle adds the teaser release date of 2 November and the Ramayana promo tie-in, which 123telugu.com omits entirely. The balanced reading is that the promotional timeline is the newer fact: the teaser date and the promo plan are concrete details that fans will track. Both outlets name 24 December 2026 as the release date.
