Biggest Bollywood Movies of 2026: SRK, Salman & Ranbir Are Back!
Bollywood’s 2026 lineup roars back with star power from Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Ranbir Kapoor, promising box-office fireworks amid sequels and fresh spectacles.
Shah Rukh Khan’s King Leads the Charge
Shah Rukh Khan headlines King 2026, a high-stakes action thriller directed by Siddharth Anand, set for Christmas release on December 24, 2026. The explosive teaser showcases a bloodied SRK roaring in dual timelines, co-starring his daughter Suhana Khan, Deepika Padukone, and Abhishek Bachchan for father-daughter mentor dynamics. Fans hail it as SRK’s grand comeback post-Pathaan, eyeing ₹1000 crore global hauls with its pan-India appeal.
Salman Khan’s Battle of Galwan Patriotic Powerhouse
Amid the icy stillness of the Himalayas, Colonel Santosh Babu (Salman Khan) leads the brave soldiers of the 16 Bihar Regiment to implement a fragile disengagement agreement along the volatile Line of Actual Control. What begins as a peaceful mission soon descends into chaos when trust is shattered and diplomacy gives way to confrontation. Galwan is a powerful saga of bravery, sacrifice, and unwavering patriotism, inspired by the real-life 2020 clash that left a lasting mark on the nation.
Ranbir Kapoor’s Ramayana Part 1 Epic
Ranbir Kapoor embodies Lord Rama in Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana Part 1, a ₹800 crore VFX-heavy mythological slated for Diwali 2026 (late October). Sai Pallavi as Sita and Yash as Ravana elevate this pan-India spectacle, blending devotion with Hollywood-level grandeur. Early promos signal a cultural juggernaut rivaling RRR‘s global splash.
