Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film ‘King’ is reported to have secured a major overseas distribution deal worth Rs 175 crore. The reports say Phars Films is involved in the transaction, which covers international rights including the Middle East, where the distributor is said to handle business directly.
The coverage agrees on the headline figure and the overseas-rights focus, but differs on the framing and added business context. Times of India describes the deal as an overseas record and links it to profitability expectations, saying the film would need to reach a higher abroad total to break even. It also situates ‘King’ within a wider commercial comparison to ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Jawan’.
Across outlets, ‘King’ is described as featuring Shah Rukh Khan alongside Deepika Padukone, Suhana Khan, Arshad Warsi, Anil Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan. Times of India adds production and release detail, including director Siddharth Anand and a reported release date of December 24.
