Entertainment Desk:

Leaked visuals from the sets of Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film “King” have taken social media by storm. The actor was spotted in Warsaw, Poland, where the shoot has been underway for the past two days, with fans flooding X (formerly Twitter) with images and videos since late last night.

In one of the most circulated photos, Shah Rukh appears in a salt-and-pepper hairstyle, wearing sunglasses and sporting tattoos on his hand — features that are reportedly central to his character. The image, showing him stepping out of a McDonald’s in costume, has sparked speculation about the nature of his role.

A separate clip shows Shah Rukh accompanied by his manager Pooja Dadlani and security head Ravi Singh, as they walk towards the monitor on set. Director Siddharth Anand is also seen in the frame, engaged in discussion by the screen.

Actor Arshad Warsi, who is part of the ensemble, has added to the buzz by sharing a post on Instagram with the caption: “No prize for guessing where I am, shooting with my favourite, Thank you God.” Siddharth Anand responded with: “Welcome to the Kingdom”. Since then, videos of Arshad relaxing with his son on set have also gone viral.

Though the makers have not revealed details about “King”, reports indicate Shah Rukh will portray a veteran assassin who trains Suhana Khan’s character for a dangerous mission. The film is said to feature an extensive cast including Abhishek Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Raghav Juyal, Abhay Verma, and Jaideep Ahlawat. Ahlawat confirmed his involvement earlier this year in an interview with The Lallantop.

The project faced a setback last month when Shah Rukh sustained an injury on set and was flown to the United States for surgery. He later appeared at the launch of Aryan Khan’s show “The Ba**ds of Bollywood” with his arm in a sling. The newly surfaced visuals from “King,” however, show the superstar back in action, commanding the camera with his trademark presence.
