There’s a fresh wave of excitement sweeping through Bollywood as speculation around Shah Rukh Khan much-talked-about upcoming film King continues to grow. Though the film hasn’t been officially announced yet, rumors surrounding its casting are already creating major buzz—and the latest name being floated is none other than Arshad Warsi.
According to a report, Arshad is said to be on board for the project, possibly in a significant role. The details remain tightly under wraps, with no leaks or hints about the character he might be playing, but the news itself has been enough to send fans into a frenzy.
Interestingly, even though Shah Rukh Khan and Arshad Warsi have been prominent figures in the industry for decades, they’ve never truly shared the screen in a full-fledged film. The only previous collaboration was a blink-and-you-miss-it cameo by SRK in Arshad’s 2005 film Kuchh Meetha Ho Jaye. If King does bring them together, it would mark their first substantial collaboration—something fans have waited for far too long.
Earlier buzz had already linked names like Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, and Munjya actor Abhay Verma to the cast, building anticipation around the film even further. Now, with Arshad’s name entering the mix, the ensemble is starting to look even more intriguing.
What makes the timing even sweeter is that this news surfaced on Arshad Warsi’s 57th birthday, adding a celebratory touch to the speculation. While there’s no official confirmation yet, the idea of Shah Rukh Khan and Arshad Warsi finally coming together on screen is more than enough to get Bollywood fans eagerly waiting for what’s next.
