Shah Rukh Khan is returning to theaters after a gap of almost three years as his King is scheduled to release in December 2026. He was last seen in Dunki, which was a Christmas release of 2023. Since he’s coming back after a long time, fans are excited, and even among the neutral audience, there’s awareness about the upcoming biggie. Going by the buzz, one thing looks certain: it’s going to record the biggest start for a Bollywood film on Christmas, but can it challenge Prabhas’ Salaar at the Indian box office? Let’s discuss it below!
We all witnessed Shah Rukh setting the box office on fire with his action-packed entertainers, Pathaan and Jawan. The buzz was at its peak around the release of these two films, and now, he’s yet again returning with an action entertainer. Yes, there’s some fatigue for action films now, but the star power will definitely drive big numbers on the opening day.
King targets the biggest Bollywood opening for a Christmas release
For those who don’t know, Aamir Khan’s Dhoom 3 holds the record for the biggest opening among Bollywood’s Christmas releases. Released in 2013, it clocked a whopping 36 crore net at the Indian box office on day 1. This record is likely to be broken easily by King, which aims to score over 40-45 crore net. With such an expected start, the upcoming biggie is set to claim the throne of Bollywood’s biggest Christmas opener.
