Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan has released a new poster of his much-awaited film ‘King’. In the poster, a rose is seen between Shahrukh’s lips. His sharp facial expressions and salt-and-pepper hair look give a glimpse of his powerful character in the film. This unique combination of action and romance has increased the curiosity about the film among the fans. Along with the poster, the actor wrote, “Today again I remembered… I am not a murderer, I am a lover… #KING.” This line has raised a new question about his character, will Shahrukh’s style in the film be seen as dangerous as it will be romantic?
What is special in the poster?
Shahrukh Khan’s style looks different from before in the new poster of ‘King’. The rose between the lips and the serious expression on the face point to two aspects of his character. The film is being described as an action entertainer, but a touch of romance is also visible in the tagline of the poster. After the glimpses released earlier, this new poster has further increased the audience’s interest in the film.
