Shah Rukh Khan, who has lent his voice to Mufasa in Mufasa: The Lion King's Hindi version, has drawn a parallel between his life and Lion King Mufasa’s journey in the film. In the latest video, SRK narrated his own inspiring journey to becoming King Khan of Bollywood.
On Wednesday, Walt Disney Studios India posted a video on their official Instagram handle in which the actor narrated Mufasa and his journey. Shah Rukh unfolded the journey of Mufasa, his hardship and triumphs to becoming king of the jungle.
The video began with Shah Rukh taking us through the film in his style. He can be heard saying “Yeh kahaani hai ek aese raja ki jise virasat ki roshni nahi, tanhaiyo ki virasat mili (This story is about a king who got darkness instead of a grand legacy).”
He added, "Lekin uski rago mein behta tha uka junoon. Aur usi junoon se usne zameen se uthkar aasmaaan ko chhua. Zameen par toh kayi badshah hukumat karte aaye hai par usne raaj kiya sabhi ke dilon par. Halath ki aandhiyon se utha, ek saccha raja (But he had passion. With that passion, he rose from the ground to reach the sky. Many kings have ruled the land, but he ruled the hearts of the people. He rose from his tough situation, a true king.)"
Pointing at himself, SRK said while smiling, "Kaafi milti julti hai na yeh kahani (smiles)? Par yeh kahani hai Mufasa ki (this story sounds similar, right? But it's a story about Mufasa)."
The clip also showcased several scenes from the upcoming film.
Ever since the makers got big names on board to voice the characters of Mufasa and Simba, fans have been eagerly waiting for the release. To keep them on edge, recently makers dropped a new trailer.
After the success of 2019’s The Lion King, Disney’s Mufasa: The Lion King is ready for the audience to watch in India on December 20 in English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. It is helmed by Barry Jenkins. The 2019 film's Hindi version stars Shah Rukh Khan as Mufasa, Aryan Khan as Simba, Ashish Vidyarthi as Scar, Shreyas Talpade as Timon, Asrani as Zazu, and Sanjay Mishra as Pumbaa.
