There were rumors in the industry that some big film announcement was going to happen in March. The excitement level was very high, although it was not known which film it was going to be. But, this morning, it almost became clear that this was actually the announcement we've all been waiting for. Pathan: Shah Rukh Khan faced action opposite Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, directed by Siddharth Anand.
As the clock struck 11:30, we were in with the announcement video of Bollywood's biggest upcoming movie. I couldn't believe my eyes. I was shocked to see SRK's notification on Twitter. I clicked on the profile and what I saw was a 1 minute complete carnage, as a viewer I am tempted enough to watch the block shows of this action thriller whenever it releases. Everything about it felt right and Shah Rukh's voice with a heavy baritone really sealed the deal for me as a fan.
Pathan is releasing on January 25, 2023, which is 10 months away. The date seems right and now, the film is over to woo its audience, especially Shah Rukh Khan who has been waiting for almost half a decade to see her act again. The last official film announcement for SRK film was in August 2016 and after a long wait of 5 and a half years, finally, there was a big film announcement which we can all be excited about.
The film is set to take record initials provided it is a single release, which I believe will happen. The film doesn't mark Shah Rukh's return to the big screen, but does mark his spectacular return to the throne left by him 5 years ago. The rest he took has worked well for him as he looks fresh and hungry for another long decade of global dominance.
Early next year, start saving your money for this family fun!
