The Hindi version of Mufasa: The Lion King is coming out this December. In this film, Shah Rukh Khan will voice Mufasa, and his sons, Aryan Khan and AbRam Khan, will voice Simba and a younger Mufasa. However, the poster for the movie has caused some problems.

Marathi actress Yogita Chavan posted the official poster on Instagram and asked why Aryan and AbRam Khan’s names were written in bold, while experienced actors like Makarand Deshpande, Sanjay Mishra, and Shreyas Talpade had their names in smaller letters. She pointed out that these actors have been in the film industry for a long time, and their contributions should be respected.

Some people on social media agreed with Yogita, saying the veteran actors should have been given more attention. Others defended the poster, saying Aryan voices Simba, an important character, and AbRam voices the younger Mufasa, so their names should be more prominent.

The movie Mufasa is a prequel to The Lion King and tells the story of Simba's father. Along with Shah Rukh Khan and his sons, other actors in the movie include Makarand Deshpande as Rafiki, Sanjay Mishra as Pumbaa, Shreyas Talpade as Timon, and Meiyang Chang as Taka. The film will be in theaters on December 20 in English, Hindi, and Tamil.

Shah Rukh Khan and Aryan Khan also voiced characters in the Hindi version of The Lion King in 2019.
