It has been months since Abhishek Bachchan has been actively fulfilling his work commitments, all while showcasing his villainous appearance in the upcoming film 'King'. However, a recently leaked photograph, believed to be from the film's set, has now surfaced online.
First Look Leaked
Bachchan's alleged first look in his antagonist role has appeared on various social media platforms, sending fans into a frenzy. The viral image, reportedly captured during an outdoor shoot, appears to show the actor standing atop a vehicle holding a shotgun, set against a rugged mountainous backdrop. He is dressed in a long grey overcoat layered over a dark outfit.
Fan Reactions
The blurry still quickly began circulating online, with many fans expressing their displeasure over the increasing number of leaks from the film sets. Several social media users shared their frustration about the repeated leaks, which have revealed most major details about the film's cast, their looks, and more. One viral comment read, "@RedChilliesEnt what is this nonsense .. @justSidAnand ... There, the NEET paper, and here, the entire cast of 'King' has been exposed. Stop it before it's too late..."
Previous Leaks
Abhishek's alleged first look leak comes after the first look of Shah Rukh Khan sporting his grey hairdo was leaked online last year. Additionally, Suhana Khan's first look from the sets was also posted online, while fans still await an official character poster. Deepika Padukone, most recently, was spotted filming a dance scene with Shah Rukh, with photos and videos of the moment taking social media by storm.
Production Updates
The 'King' cast most recently shifted base to South Africa to film a song sequence and the climax shoot. After a two-week shoot, the cast returned to Mumbai to continue the next leg of filming for the large-scale action film.
Release Date
'King' is slated for a Christmas 2026 release. The film will hit theatres just a week after the highly anticipated Hollywood blockbusters 'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Dune: Part Three'. The film's December release has thus set it up for one of the biggest box office clashes of all time.
