At midnight, SRK also unveiled the first song from King, titled "Tu Mil Jaaye," composed by Sachin-Jigar and featuring vocals from Arijit Singh, Ed Sheeran, and Madhubanti Bagchi.

Directed by Siddhart Anand and produced by Red Chillies Entertainment in collaboration with Marflix Pictures, King is set to hit theaters on December 24, 2026.
