Shah Rukh Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan are set to rekindle their on-screen magic in a high-octane dance sequence for the upcoming film King, with shooting beginning in Mumbai on October 27. According to reports from Bollywood Hungama and The Free Press Journal, the number is being choreographed by Vaibhavi Merchant and is expected to draw heavily from the energetic style of their 2011 hit ‘Chammak Challo’ from Ra.One.

While no official confirmation has been issued by the production team, multiple sources indicate that international dancers are being brought in for the sequence, which is being planned on a large scale. The track is described as a high-energy party anthem, with elaborate sets and visual effects designed to amplify its impact.

This marks a reunion between the two actors after years apart on screen — they previously shared screen space in Asoka, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, and Ra.One. The film, directed by Siddharth Anand, also features Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Rani Mukerji, Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Jaideep Ahlawat, Arshad Warsi, Raghav Juyal, and Abhay Verma in key roles.

A new poster dropped ahead of the shoot, showing SRK in a striking, rugged look, tousled blonde hair, a bloodied chest, and distressed clothing, surrounded by flames, sparks, and wreckage. He captioned the post: “Aaj phir yaad aaya... Qaatil nahi… Aashiq hoon… #KING,” referencing his iconic line from the 1999 film Baadshah.

The film is scheduled for release on December 24, 2026. Whether this dance number lives up to the legacy of their earlier work remains to be seen. But one thing’s clear: the momentum is building, and the countdown to Christmas 2026 has officially begun.
