King's 400 Crore Budget: SRK's Most Expensive Film
3 Nov
Summary
- King's budget reportedly stands at a massive 400 crore.
- The film needs to earn 400 crore net to break even.
- King is scheduled for release on December 24, 2026.
Shah Rukh Khan's highly anticipated film, King, is poised to be his most expensive venture yet, boasting a reported budget significantly exceeding that of "Jawan." Initially conceived with Suhana Khan in a lead role and SRK in a cameo, the project evolved into a full-fledged feature for the superstar, driving up production costs. The film's colossal scale has culminated in a reported budget of 400 crore, surpassing "Jawan's" estimated 300 crore.
To enter the safe zone financially, King needs to achieve a net earning of 400 crore in the Indian market. This ambitious target is considered achievable, given Khan's recent successes with "Pathaan" and "Jawan," which have previously crossed the 400 crore net mark. Industry expectations suggest King could become the superstar's next film to gross 500 crore net.
The action thriller is directed by Siddharth Anand, reuniting him with Khan after their collaboration on "Pathaan." Produced by Gauri Khan, Mamta Anand, and Siddharth Anand under Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, King is scheduled for release on December 24, 2026.
