A new star duel seems to be brewing; at least online. On November 2, 2025, as Shah Rukh Khan celebrated his 60th birthday, he unveiled the teaser for his upcoming action thriller “King,” directed by Siddharth Anand.
The teaser showcases Shah Rukh as a silver-haired global criminal, described as “terror incarnate,” and it has received an enthusiastic response from audiences.
Shah Rukh looks stunning in this new avatar, but the buzz quickly turned into a fan war.
Fans of Prabhas and Shah Rukh Khan have begun clashing online over their idols’ titles.
Prabhas, who is teaming up with Sandeep Reddy Vanga for the highly anticipated film “Spirit,” was recently introduced in a fiery birthday audio teaser that went viral, where Sandeep referred to him as “India’s Biggest Superstar.”
Not to be outdone, Siddharth Anand posted a birthday message for Shah Rukh Khan, writing: “When stars go beyond being just a superstar, they are called King. Happy Birthday INDIA’s KING, Shah Rukh Khan.”
The post instantly set social media ablaze, with fans interpreting it as a subtle response to Sandeep’s “Biggest Superstar” claim.
And just like that, the online battle between “Superstar vs. King” has officially begun. |
