In IPL 2024, KKR secured their third title under Shreyas Iyer`s captaincy with an 8-wicket victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad. However, Iyer, who led the Knights in the 17th season, has not been retained. Shahrukh Khan`s charismatic personality radiates in the massive fan following. Fondly referred to as the King of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan`s ascent to fame began in New Delhi, where he first gained attention in 1989 with the TV series `Fauji`.
His film career skyrocketed with hits like `Deewana`, `Darr`, and `Baazigar`, but it was `Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge` that truly cemented his status as a superstar. After a long break, Khan in 2023 made a powerful comeback with blockbusters like `Pathaan`, `Jawan` and `Dunki`, reaffirming his title as the King of Bollywood.
In August, during a conversation with Giona A Nazzaro, the artistic director of the Locarno Film Festival, SRK discussed his career and achievements. He opened up on his preparation work for his next film `King` and his collaboration with filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh.
He said, “There are certain kinds of film that I want to do, maybe it`s more age centric and I want to try something for 6-7 years I`ve been thinking about it and I mentioned it to Sujoy Ghosh one day while we were sitting. He works with us at our office, he`s made some films for us. He says, Sir, I have a subject.”
SRK also spoke about losing weight for his film `King`, “The next film I am doing `King`, I have to start working on it, have to lose some weight a little, do some stretching,” he added. An official announcement regarding the film has not been made yet.
Yuvraj Singh, another admirer of the superstar, shared a story on his Instagram handle, sending his birthday greetings: “Happy Birthday to the Badshah of the silver screen. May you keep ruling hearts and spreading magic. Lots of love!”
