BALD and bold: Anil Kapoor to transform like never before in King; Shah Rukh Khan-starrer to release on evergreen actor’s birthday; his fifth Christmas release after Welcome, AK vs AK…

Anil Kapoor, a well-known actor who has always looked young and stylish, is planning to change his look in a new movie called King. This year, he will give another great performance, just like he always does. However, in 2026, he will try something new and exciting. On January 3, his web series Family Business was shown at the Next On Netflix 2026 event, where he had silver hair. In the film King, he will go bald, according to reports.

Anil Kapoor is going to look bold and different in King.

 The movie is starring Shah Rukh Khan and will come out on Anil's birthday. This is his fifth movie that will be released during the Christmas week. His first Christmas movie was Mr Azaad, which came out on December 23, 1994. Then came Trimurti, released on December 22, 1995, and Welcome, which came out on December 21, 2007. The latest one is AK vs AK, which was released on December 24, but it came out on Netflix first.

King is directed by Siddharth Anand, who made movies like Pathaan and War.

 Anil also appeared in Siddharth's last film, Fighter. The movie is set to release on December 24, 2026, which is also Anil's birthday. It's unclear whether this date will be lucky for him at the box office.
