Kareena Kapoor has teased an exciting reunion with Shah Rukh Khan in ‘King’, sharing a picture with the superstar on his 61st birthday.
Shah Rukh Khan's 61st birthday came with a little surprise for fans of his on-screen pairings. Kareena Kapoor added to the celebrations by sharing a glimpse with the superstar, hinting that the two are ready to reunite on screen in his upcoming action thriller ‘King’.
Taking to social media, Kareena shared a picture with Shah Rukh and accompanied it with a birthday wish that appeared to tease their upcoming collaboration. "Happy Birthday King. The forever Ruler of the kingdom. Let's dance together... Can't wait. 24-12-26," she wrote.
The words "Let's dance together" have particularly caught fans' attention, especially amid reports that the two actors are coming together for a special musical sequence in the film.
Gauri Khan was quick to join the conversation. Reacting to Kareena's post, she commented, "It's going to be insane."
What is Kareena Kapoor doing in Shah Rukh Khan's ‘King’?
While Kareena's post has fuelled excitement around their reunion, reports suggest that her appearance in ‘King’ will be a special one rather than a full-fledged role.
The actor is reportedly set to share screen space with Shah Rukh in a song titled ‘Daddy Cool’. The sequence is expected to be mounted on a grand scale, with the actors reportedly travelling to South Africa later this month for the shoot. Kareena is said to have allotted approximately five days for the schedule.
The song, composed by Sachin-Jigar, is also expected to feature an Indian artist alongside an international performer. The identities of the singers have not been officially revealed.
The track is reportedly being planned as one of the film's major musical attractions.

Kareena and Shah Rukh share a history of collaborations, having appeared together in films such as ‘Asoka’, ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’ and ‘Ra.One’.
Their reunion in ‘King’ brings back a familiar pairing, this time amid the scale and action-driven setting of Shah Rukh's upcoming film. Although Kareena is reportedly making a special appearance, the possibility of seeing the two share a musical sequence has already generated considerable interest.
‘King’ is scheduled for a December 24, 2026 release.
