Mufasa - The Lion King trailer: The origin tale of Disney's most famous feline looks delightful; is Shah Rukh Khan returning too?

MUMBAI: The Lion King is one of the most cherished Disney stories ever told and it’s one that has been passed on through generations. We all know the story of Simba how he sees his father Mufasa die, breaks apart from his family, discovers the mantra of life ‘Hakuna Matata’ and on knowing about the trouble on his family, he goes back to rescue them and avenge his father’s death by killing his uncle.

However, there is a story before that which is quite unheard and deserves all the attention. Well, Disney is here with just that and it’s time we get to know about it. A long time before Simba, it was Mufasa’s life and journey about how he ended up being who he was – The Lion King. That journey will be told in ‘Mufasa: The Lion King’, Disney's latest live-action movie.
