Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has revealed that his next film, King, is designed as a "pan-world" project, highlighting the expanding reach of Indian cinema on the global stage. The announcement came during a fan event in the city on his birthday days agi, where Khan expressed deep appreciation for his Indian fans, crediting them for his international success.

At the event, Khan responded to a question from an American fan, who praised him as a “pan-world superstar,” following the success of his recent films, Pathaan and Jawan. Khan shared his pride into representing India globally, saying, "I’m taking India to places I once thought were impossible." He highlighted how Indian audiences have supported him throughout his career, allowing him to make a mark worldwide. “The subcontinent has taken me to places I thought were impossible for me,” he added.

Khan also discussed his commitment to creating original, high-quality stories that resonate globally. "Language is no longer a barrier," he remarked, emphasising that Indian cinema is gaining international appeal as it reaches wider audiences. "We need to write stories that touch hearts while maintaining quality," he noted, adding that he hopes to play a role in furthering this trend.

The choice to title King in English was intentional, aimed at connecting with global viewers. “I now title my films in English so that people in America know what it means,” he said with a smile, concluding, "Take a message back home from India: 'The King is coming'."

Directed by Sujoy Ghosh, King is set to release in mid-2026, featuring Khan alongside his daughter Suhana Khan and actor Abhishek Bachchan.
