Shah Rukh Khan’s King just got a MASSIVE surprise, and this one could have audiences talking long before the film reaches theatres.
Kareena Kapoor Khan is set to reunite with Shah Rukh Khan after nearly 15 years, and this time, the duo will come together for a special appearance in the much-awaited action entertainer King.
According to a Pinkvilla report, the song Daddy Cool to be shot on a grand scale, Kareena Kapoor Khan would be featuring in it with SRK. She will be flying to South Africa later this month to shoot the song with the actor and will be there for 5 days for the same.
Kareena Kapoor And SRK Are Coming Together Again
The biggest talking point here is obviously the reunion.
Shah Rukh Khan and Kareena Kapoor starred in movies like Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and Don. Seeing them on screen after so many years would certainly bring back fond memories.
For this film however, the team is reportedly planning something quite different.
As per the report, Daddy Cool is being mounted as a special song and is expected to be one of the major highlights of King. The idea is to present SRK and Kareena in an avatar audiences haven’t seen from them before.
And if the scale being discussed comes together on screen, this could easily become one of the film’s biggest pre-release talking points.
Daddy Cool To Be A BIG-Scale Song
The song is reportedly being composed by Sachin-Jigar and will feature an Indian artist alongside an international artist.
The makers are keeping the identity of the international collaborator and singer under wraps for now. That secrecy itself is adding another layer of curiosity around the song.
The reported plan is clear: this isn’t being treated like a routine promotional track.
Daddy Cool is being positioned as a full-scale spectacle.
With South Africa as the shooting location and five days reportedly allotted for Kareena’s schedule, expectations are naturally high.
Shah Rukh Khan In A NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN Avatar?
Another interesting detail is SRK’s look for the song.
According to the report, the superstar will be seen in a never-before-seen avatar alongside Kareena.
That could make Daddy Cool even more interesting because King is already being positioned as a major action entertainer. A stylish song featuring SRK and Kareena gives the film another flavour altogether.
For fans who have been waiting to see Shah Rukh Khan in a larger-than-life avatar, this could be exactly the kind of surprise that creates a social media storm.
King Could Have Another BIG Reveal Coming
And there is more.
The makers are reportedly planning to unveil a new asset from King around November 2, coinciding with Shah Rukh Khan’s birthday.
That timing is hardly surprising. SRK’s birthday has traditionally become a major moment for his fans, and a fresh King asset on the occasion could generate massive online attention.
Whether it turns out to be a look, teaser or another major reveal remains to be seen.
But with Kareena now reportedly joining the film for Daddy Cool, the anticipation around the next King update has gone up another notch.

SRK and Kareena. A massive song. South Africa. An international collaboration. And a never-before-seen avatar.
King is clearly not looking to play small.
