It’s not all kicks and punches though. The director will also film a special dance sequence, which insiders are touting to be a special highlight, next month. The source added, “It’s designed as a big moment in the film — visually striking and mounted on a scale that complements the larger-than-life tone of ‘King’.” The movie also stars Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, and Suhana Khan.
