Actor Shah Rukh Khan recently suffered a back injury while filming an action sequence for his upcoming film, ‘King’.
Sources told India Today that the injury is not serious and the actor is recovering well. However, the incident has impacted the production schedule, with filming now expected to resume in September.
Following the injury, SRK travelled to the United States and has since relocated to the UK, where he is recuperating with his family. A planned trip to Sri Lanka has been postponed to prioritise his recovery and well-being.
Directed by Siddharth Anand, ‘King’ marks the big-screen debut of Suhana Khan, who was last seen in Netflix’s ‘The Archies’. The film also features Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Jaideep Ahlawat, Anil Kapoor, and Abhay Verma, promising a high-octane drama with an ensemble cast.
While the production delay has altered timelines, anticipation around ‘King’ remains high. Fans continue to express their support for SRK, wishing him a speedy recovery as the team eyes a smooth restart later this year.
Meanwhile, Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan was initially scheduled to arrive in Colombo on August 2 as a special guest for the opening ceremony of “City of Dreams Sri Lanka.”
However, the organisers later issued a statement confirming that he will no longer be visiting the country as planned.
According to the statement, the actor’s visit has been cancelled due to unavoidable personal reasons.
