Shah Rukh Khan talks about the similarities between him and Mufasa


Shah Rukh Khan will be lending his voice to Mufasa in the Hindi dubbed version of Mufasa: The Lion King with Aryan Khan voicing Simba and AbRam Khan voicing a young Mufasa. Ahead of the release of the film, the actor spoke about the similarities between him and Mufasa’s character.

In a promotional video released, SRK could be heard saying, “This is a story about a certain king who got darkness instead of a grand legacy. But he had passion and with that passion, he rose from the ground to touch the sky. Many kings ruled the land, but he ruled the hearts of the people. He rose from this tough situation, a true king. This story sounds similar, right? But it’s a story about Mufasa.”

The Hindi version also features Sanjay Mishra as Pumbaa, Shreyas Talpade as Timon, Makarand Deshpande as Rafiki and Meiyang Chang as Taka.

Mufasa: The Lion King enlists Rafiki to relay the legend of the unlikely rise of the beloved king of the Pride Lands, introducing an orphaned cub called Mufasa, a sympathetic lion named Taka—the heir to a royal bloodline—and their expansive journey alongside an extraordinary group of misfits. The all-new feature film is directed by Barry Jenkins.

It will be released in Indian cinemas on 20th December 2024 in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
