After 2024, No Film of Superstar Shah Rukh Khan In 2025 Also? Bollywood

After 2024, No Film of Superstar Shah Rukh Khan In 2025 Also?

Mumbai, September 4 - Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan made a roaring comeback on the big screen with three back-to-back big box office successes in 2023 in the form of Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki which combined grossed over 2600 crores worldwide. ## 2023 proved to be a dominating year for Bollywood, thanks to the major contribution from the aforementioned three films. It was also a year to remember for Shah Rukh Khan and his fans, however, 2024 hasn't been the same for them with not a single release. ## After 2024, it looks like there will be no film of Shah Rukh Khan getting released in 2025 as well. The actor is presently working on director Sujoy Ghosh's action thriller The King which is in the pre-production stage. The much-anticipated film, which also stars Suhana Khan, will start shooting by the end of this year. ## According to the latest buzz in the industry, The King is targeting an early 2026 release, which means no Shah Rukh Khan film for the second year in a row at a time when he is at the top of his game. While it's a long wait for the fans, it is also a loss to some extent for exhibitors who hugely benefitted from SRK's last three films in 2023. ## Apart from The King, Shah Rukh Khan also has Yash Raj Films' Pathaan 2, which is expected to go on floors by 2025, and Tiger vs Pathaan. Both films are likely to be released only after 2026. ##

Director Om Raut Happy With Prabhas-Fronted 'Adipurush' Box Office Performance

Mumbai, August 29 - Director Om Raut has finally opened up on Adipurush, starring Pan India superstar Prabhas. It was one of the most-hyped Indian movies in recent times but ended up as a major disappointment on every front.## The movie got trolled for the cringe characterization of the figures of the epic Ramayana and was largely a box office misfire despite the huge initial collections that were pulled through the factor of Ramayana and Prabhas' mega-stardom.## Made on a massive budget of 500 crores, Adipurush grossed around 400 crores at the worldwide box office and was termed a big flop, especially in the Telugu version. However, unlike the public opinion on the film's box office numbers, Om Raut seems to be happy with its performance. ## During a recent interview with a Marathi media, Om Raut called out the trollers and said that they don't need to bother too much about this faceless army on social media. He went on to say, "At the end of the day, what matters for the movie is the box office. And, Adipurush did very well at the box office". The filmmaker also said that superstars like Prabhas and Salman Khan as 'flop-proof' stars who can pull off any film. ## Adipurush is based on the epic Ramayana where Prabhas played the role of Lord Rama alongside Kriti Sanon as Sita and Saif Ali Khan as Raavan. It received largely negative reviews from critics while audience reception was also disappointing.## Stay tuned...
