The three-day gala is set to kick-start with Utsavam, an event dedicated to southern film industries- Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada. Megastar Chiranjeevi will be honoured at the event. On the second day, stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Vicky Kaushal, and Karan Johar will come on stage to entertain the audience with their hosting stint at the awards night. Interestingly, the second day will also see Rekha returning to the stage after a long time.
Khan will next be seen in 'King' alongside Suhana Khan and Abhishek Bachchan. Rumour has it that Suhana's second film is inspired by the English language French production, âLeon: The Professional' (1994).
It has been tentatively titled âKing'. The original film revolves around a professional hitman who reluctantly takes in a twelve-year-old after her family is murdered by a corrupt official. The two form an unusual relationship, as she becomes his protégée and learns to be like him.
Director Sujoy Ghosh is adapting the revenge drama, with Shah Rukh Khan playing a role that was essayed by Jean Reno and Suhana stepping into Natalie Portman's shoes.
SRK will also be seen sharing screen space with Salman Khan in 'Tiger vs Pathaan'. The film will reportedly have Tiger (Salman) locking horns with Pathaan, played by Shah Rukh Khan. It will mark their full-fledged collaboration after 'Karan Arjun'. An official announcement regarding the project is still awaited.
