The buzz is high that SRK and Dippy are all set to recreate their magic on-screen like they did in their previous outings including latter's debut 'Om Shanti Om', 'Chennai Express' and more recently in 'Pathaan'. 

According to Pinkvilla, Siddharth Anand who will be directing the venture is currently busy with the pre-production work. The cast of King includes Abhishek Bachchan, Suhana Khan, Abhay Verma, Arshad Warsi, and Jaideep Ahlawat.
