A stellar year in cinema
Last year was incredible for Shah Rukh Khan when he starred in three movies: Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki. His action-filled year left fans desperately waiting for what he will do next. Rumor has it that Khan is going to be featured in a movie named KING along with his daughter Suhana Kahn and Abhishek Bachchan who is expected to play antagonist role. Directed by Sujoy Ghosh and produced by Siddharth Anand, the film is believed to have a fiery clash between Khan’s and Bachchan’s characters.

The fact that Shah Rukh Khan has remained popular and successful in global cinema is a testament to his talent and charm. The gold coin award by Grevin Museum only confirms his tremendous impact on films and how much he means to people across the world.
