Recent reports suggesting Shah Rukh Khan was injured on the sets of his upcoming action film King sparked concern among fans and drew widespread media attention. However, reliable sources close to the actor have now clarified that these claims are entirely unfounded. Contrary to speculation, Shah Rukh Khan did not suffer any injury during the shoot, nor has he flown abroad for any emergency medical treatment.
The confusion appears to have stemmed from false reports linking the actor’s name to an incident at Mumbai’s Golden Tobacco studio, where some outlets alleged he had sustained a back injury and would be taking a month-long break. Shah Rukh Khan’s team has strongly refuted these rumors, confirming that there has been no injury affecting the film’s schedule. Any travel plans mentioned in connection with the superstar were reportedly part of his routine health management, not connected to any accident or recent health scare.
Adding to the buzz, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had posted a message on social media sending her well wishes to Shah Rukh, referring to him affectionately as “brother.” Her post, however, was based on circulating misinformation and not any verified update from Shah Rukh Khan’s team.
Insiders have reiterated that Shah Rukh Khan is healthy and fully committed to the demanding shoot of King. Recently, he was seen filming intense sequences, including a pivotal jail scene in Mumbai, under the direction of Siddharth Anand. The film, which is highly anticipated, will mark a significant milestone as it pairs Shah Rukh Khan with his daughter, Suhana Khan, for the first time on screen. The cast also includes major stars like Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, and Abhishek Bachchan.
Despite the swirl of rumors, production on King remains on track. The film continues to build momentum toward its slated late 2026 release, with Shah Rukh Khan fully engaged in bringing this action-packed project to life. Fans can rest assured that the superstar is in good health and moving forward without any disruptions.
