They have had an impressive track record at the box-office with successes like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Chalte Chalte, Veer Zaara, Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. Their 2005 Paheli didn't do the numbers however, But their collective collections are still a staggering Rs 223 crore. How much will King make?
Shah Rukh Khan starrer King has just got bigger and grander. The stylish action-thriller already has the ensemble cast of Abhishek Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Suhana Khan, Arshad Warsi, Jaideep Ahlawat and Abhay Verma and the latest one to join the bandwagon is versatile star Rani Mukerji.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
As per reports, Rani will play a crucial extended cameo in King. 'Rani Mukerji and Shah Rukh Khan have worked together on films like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham_, and Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna among others, and are now all set for a reunion. Rani Mukerji has been cast to play the part of Suhana Khan's mother, and it's a role which acts as a catalyst for the entire action-thriller in the film,' a source told PinkVilla.
'It was a no-brainer for Rani to say yes to Shah Rukh Khan and Siddharth Anand's offer for King. She heard the part, and instantly agreed to on board the film. Rani's track is the heart of King, leading to the emotional depth,' added the source.
The Siddharth Anand directorial will reportedly go on floors on May 20 with its Mumbai schedule. In the movie, SRK will portray the character of an assassin and will take against the character of Abhishek Bachchan.

Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani starrer War 2 has started its advance booking at the US box office. The YRF movie is trending well and is likely to storm a banger opening at the box office. War 2 hits USD 170K of pre-sales in North America As of 8 AM (August 3, Sunday), War 2 sold over 5500 tickets in 1585 shows across 580 locations of the US. The movie recorded a pre-sales of USD 150K plus. While the total advance of War 2 in for North American premiere shows reached USD 170K. More locations are yet to open the advance booking. The movie is expected to see better jumps in the coming days. As of now, War 2 advances are similar to Salman Khan's Tiger 3 and Shah Rukh Khan's Dunki. Unlike the other two titles, the Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR starrer is releasing in two languages in the US- Hindi and Telugu. The movie is likely to cross the USD 200K mark by tomorrow. It will be interesting to see how far War 2 can go from here on, as the movie still has 11 days to release. War 2 advances open much later than Coolie in the US When compared to Coolie, War 2 is far behind at the US advance booking. However, one must note that the Ayan Mukerji directorial has just started its pre-sales in the territory while the advances for Tamil movie were open since Mid-July. For the record, Rajinikanth's Coolie has already smashed a historic feat by becoming the fastest Tamil movie to hit the USD 1 million of pre-sales at the North American box office for the premiere shows. War 2 and Coolie are set for a head-to-head box office clash on August 14, 2025. Both movies are considered to be the biggest bets of the respective film industries this year.

Yuvika Chaudhary Weighs In On Deepika Padukone's 8-Hour Shift Demand: ‘Itna Bhi Ruthless...'
Last Updated: Yuvika Chaudhary backs Deepika Padukone's 8-hour shift demand, says working after becoming a mother isn't easy and actors deserve respect for their experience. Deepika Padukone's exit from Spirit has stirred a debate surrounding fixed working hours for actors. Several celebrities have been talking about and giving their views on the topic, and now Yuvika Chaudhary, who is also a new mom, has reacted to the ongoing discussion and backed Deepika Padukone on the topic. In a conversation with Pinkvilla's Hindi Rush, Yuvika opened up about Deepika's demand and shared, 'Ek toh maa banna aasan nahi hai aur maa banne ke baad kaam karna toh bilkul bhi aasan nahi hai. Voh unki definitely demand hogi. Unko kaam se pyaar hai isiliye toh voh kaam kar rahe hai, kaam pe aa rahe hai vapis." (It is not easy to be a mother, and it is not easy at all to work after becoming a mother. That will definitely be her demand. She loves working and that is why she is working; she is coming back to work.) 'Joh aap industry mein itne saalon se kaam kar rahe ho, utni respect toh milna zaroori hai," (She has been working in the industry for so many years, so she deserves that respect) she added while sharing how Deepika's demands are absolutely right. She further continued and stated that no one should be this ruthless towards a new mother, saying, 'So I think she is right. She should get that time because itna bhi aapko ruthless nahi hona chahiye." (She should get that time and no one should be this ruthless.) 'And I'm sure it's not forever. It's a give and take. When you have done a certain amount of work, I think you should get that respect," Yuvika concluded. Bollywood's Ongoing Debate Over Work Hours For the unversed, the debate over work hours in Bollywood started after Deepika Padukone's departure from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's upcoming film Spirit. Reports claimed that the actress, who recently embraced motherhood, requested to limit her workday to eight hours — a clause that reportedly didn't sit well with the filmmaker. Several celebrities, including Vikrant Massey, Rashmika Mandanna, Neha Dhupia, Anurag Basu, and others, came out in support of Deepika amid the ongoing discussion. On the work front, Deepika Padukone is all set to collaborate with Atlee once again after the blockbuster hit Jawan. She is reportedly going to play a pivotal role in Shah Rukh Khan's King. Meanwhile, director Mohit Suri is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Saiyaraa, starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda.
