SRK bakes pizza

SRK Turns Chef, Bakes Pizza

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan is a great cook. After treating his ‘Pathaan’ team to delicious hand-made pizzas during the film’s shoot, the King Khan hosted model Navpreet Kaur at his home Mannat recently and unleashed his Italian chef avatar for her.

On Sunday, Navpreet took to Instagram and recalled her meeting with the actor and his family. In a lengthy post, Navpreet revisited all that happened inside SRK’s home during her meeting and how SRK left her in awe by baking a pizza himself.
“I promised myself I’ll never post it, but this memory is too precious to just keep it to myself. Cheers to this oh so blessed day of my life at #Mannat. The king @iamsrk himself baked a pizza, and that too veg because ‘kuch punjabi veg bhi hote hain’. All the while I was at his house, I thought I was dreaming and someone was soon going to wake me up. I kept my calm and composure because I didn’t want to freak out infront of him,” she wrote.

She added, “When the excitement of sitting at the dining table with him, his family and Pooja was bubbling up, I excused myself and asked for the way to the washroom. He got up from his chair and like an unbelievably warm host, escorted me to the washroom door. At this point my heart wanted to scream out of excitement, so I looked at mirror in the room, and I found myself silently screaming out loud, over this unbelievable incident. The dinner was served and I was full with one slice. My stomach was busy digesting my excitement.”

Navpreet also heaped praise on Gauri Khan, Aryan, Suhana, AbRam and SRK’s manager Pooja.

“Gauri is a darling. Abram is my new best friend, although he might not remember me in a couple of days. Aryan is such a warm, sweetheart, against his angry-young-man looks. Suhana was busy slaying. Pooja is her iconic self, and I’m still refusing to believe that it wasn’t a dream. After we said goodbyes, his highness escorted me all the way down, where my cab was waiting and my cab driver didn’t waste the opportunity of taking a selfie,” she concluded.

Along with the post, Navpreet shared a selfie with SRK and an autograph with his youngest son AbRam.

Navpreet post about SRK’s hospitality went viral, garnering netizens’ attention.

“Lucky you,” a social media user commented.

“He is too kind,” another one wrote.

Fans are also curious to know how why SRK hosted Navpreet at Mannat. Hope the model will share that too on social media. (ANI)

IPL 2023 SRK Virat Kohli

SRK Teaches Kohli ‘Jhoome Jo Pathaan’ Hook Step

Bollywood and cricket make the perfect match. The IPL 2023 match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday saw superstar Shah Rukh Khan casting a spell over cricketers and spectators at the stadium.

After KKR registered a remarkable win against the RCB, the team’s co-owner SRK entered the ground and met all the players. He also interacted with former RCB skipper Virat Kohli.
Several images and videos from the Thursday’s evening fixture went viral. In one of the clips, SRK is seen getting excited at spotting Kohli. He went over to him and gave him a tight hug.

SRK also convinced Kohli to try the viral steps from the Jhoome Jo Pathaan song from his blockbuster ‘Pathaan’.

SRK and Kohli’s brief meeting left fans excited.

Reacting to the duo’s images and videos, a social media user commented, “This made my day.”

“King of Bollywood meeting King of Cricket,” another one wrote.

Shah came to the venue with his daughter Suhana Khan and Sanjay Kapoor’s daughter Shanaya Kapooir. The team’s co-owner and actor Juhi Chawla also cheered the boys in purple and gold on during their big win over the RCB.

Speaking to ANI, Juhi expressed happiness over the win.

“I’m very happy with our team’s performance. I just hope and pray that all our matches end like this. Every seat at Eden Gardens was occupied. Let’s make the finals this year, let’s be champions,” she added.

KKR ended their innings at 204/7 in 20 overs, with Umesh Yadav (6) and Sunil Narine (0) unbeaten. RCB’s death bowling was a culprit as the side gave away 57 runs in the final four overs. RCB failed to chase the target. RCB were bundled out for 123. (ANI)

‘Pathaan Proves That Love Presides Over Toxicity’

‘Pathaan Proves That Love Presides Over Toxicity’

Yuvraj Dixit, a teenage movie buff and a diehard Shahrukh fan from Lucknow, says Pathaan has humiliated the hatemongers and proved that audiences have an opinion of their own. In his words:

Pathaan’s success has once again proved that content is king. Nevertheless, the movie’s cast, led by King Khan, has also brought a breath of fresh air from Bollywood. Add to this, the joy of watching a movie in big screen, and you have the perfect recipe for a blockbuster. After a very long, one got to see the audience jumping with joy, whistling, shouting, and dancing out their heart.

The experience to watch Pathaan was like a collective celebration of life. More so as things were lying breathless ever since the Covid lockdown hit the country. Though many films were released in the past couple of years but they failed to pull and hold the viewer. Although there have been many films with good content and story streamed on OTT, the fun and satisfaction to watch a movie with the crowd is unmatchable.

Pathaan is the new world of Shahrukh and we are living it to the fullest. Amidst the `record tod’ performance, it has once again been proved that haters are going to hate but it is love that will always preside. King Khan said it in as many words.

The boycott gang was yet again on its toes and made all efforts to ruin our `piece’ of joy and celebration but, like many occasions, all the hues and cries fell flat on the face. The illogical `bhagwa’ protest stands humiliated today. The campaign such `ISI-funded film’, `disrespect to our security agencies’ (John Abraham is a former RAW agent in the film), etc., failed to mislead the viewers and the audience gave its reply louder than words.

Dixit relives his experience of watching Pathaan in cinema hall

I also have a piece of advice not only for Shahrukh but for everyone in the film industry. We all know the power of social media and the population of `WhatsApp graduates’, so every caution should be taken so as to not leave even a single `loophole’ or a situation that could prove to be an easy catch for `bluffers’.

It’s not that that a bhagwa clothing appeared only in Pathaan – I can provide a list of links with even more vulgar sequences where actors in saffron robes were enjoying pelvic thrusts with bawdy lyrics. The less said about our Internet intellectuals the better! Some people will always spread mindless sensitivity and toxicity.

The viewers have also given a fair example of their intelligence and the real movie lover is not moved or affected by such calls and campaigns. After all, so much money and time are involved in giving us something to cherish and spend quality time and we also need to give the respect and return our entertainers deserve.

India And Its Media Find It Safe To Go Soft On Adani

Weekly Wrap: Why Indian media pussyfoots around Adani; Modi’s Turkey Outreach; and the race for AI-powered Chatbots

Why India and its media continue to be soft on Adani

The phrase “play out” is (and I checked!) the phrasal verb of play and it usually means: 1. To develop in a particular way; and 2. To happen; or take place. Now, let’s examine what India’s Economic Secretary, Ajay Seth, may have meant about the crisis surrounding the Adani Group, which is facing allegations of financial manipulation and fraud, when he said that it (the crisis) would “play out”. That was how one of India’s top bureaucrats was quoted as saying in The Hindu newspaper.

What did he really mean? Did he mean (going by the dictionary meaning) that it would either “develop in a particular way” or would “happen” or “take place”. If he meant any of those things (and I am assuming that he was quoted correctly in the reputed newspaper) then, sorry, but he said nothing. Or, did he use the phrase “play out” in an intransitive verb form, which the Merriam-Webster dictionary informs me could mean “to become spent or exhausted”. Could the good bureaucrat have meant that? That the crisis around the Adani group would become spent or exhausted or, in other words, die out?

Unfortunately, though that is usually the fate of allegations of financial scams and fraud, particularly those against big Indian companies and conglomerates in India. To borrow a bureaucratic phrase, they “play out”. That is, nothing happens. After a short period of controversy and ripples in media and political circles, they die out. 

Will that also happen to the crisis that the Adani group finds itself in? It probably will. Last week, a leading Indian newspaper carried a headline that said “Adani-Hindenburg row: SC to hear pleas on ‘conspiracy that tarnished India’”. That headline says it all. Sanjay Sipahimalani, a writer, tweeted the headline with a comment: “Please note the framing of the headline. When they write a history of the media during this time, it should be titled ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’”. He nailed it. 

India’s mainstream media have been rather subdued about the Adani affair. Besides in their reporting on the business group’s rebuttal (a 400-plus page assemblage of mostly verbiage), there is little insight on the allegations of stock manipulation or obfuscation of debt by the group. In fact, while the tiny activist outfit, Hindenburg Research, was doing its investigation into the group, Indian media was largely celebrating Adani’s meteoric growth and ambitions, which The Economist recently called pharaonic. In a recent leader, the publication said “The media are mostly too cowed to investigate the mighty as they once did. Few Indian newspapers would have touched the story about Mr Adani had an American firm not asked the tough questions. Mr Adani himself recently bought NDTV, a news channel that was once critical of the government but is now supine.”

Part of the hesitancy to investigate charges against Adani and his empire also comes from the fact that Adani is very close to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a person that is very rarely put under the scanner by big Indian media groups. Adani, whose business roots are in Gujarat, became close to Modi when the latter was the chief minister of that state. In fact, it is believed that Modi flew to Delhi when he became Prime Minister in 2014 in a plane belonging to Adani. So if the media fight shy of taking on Modi (on any controversy that could involve him) then they probably think it’s safer to give his allies a wide berth too.

Could a tragic natural calamity rebuild Indo-Turkish ties?

When an earthquake of unforeseen dimensions hit Turkey, killing an estimated 180,000 people, the world was shocked. Quickly, foreign aid from across the globe started pouring into Turkey to help the country overcome the massive humanitarian crisis that it faces. India too stepped forward to help Turkey.

Launching what it called Operation Dost, India sent assistance to Turkey as well as Syria after last Monday’s devastating earthquake that toppled buildings, flattened cities, and buried thousands. The aid comprised medical supplies, medical professionals and search and rescue teams.

The significance of Operation Dost (Dost means friend in Hindi) is that relations between India and Turkey have not been great in the past. Turkey under president Recep Tayyip Erdogan has supported Pakistan’s claims in Kashmir and has looked at that nation in its bid to develop nuclear weapons. In the past, Erdogan has often berated India on the Kashmir issue and called for a settlement on the basis of a UN resolution that India considers both dated and untenable.

However, more recently,Turkey has diluted its anti-India stance and also cranked down its support for Pakistan. A few days ago, Turkey snubbed Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and asked him to cancel his visit to Ankara because the government was busy with relief and rescue missions. Observers believe that this and the prompt reaction to the earthquake by the Indian authorities could be the beginning of a rapprochement between the two countries.

Was a Chinese balloon spying on North America?

Last week the US declared that it had shot down a Chinese balloon that it believed was used in espionage operations by China over military bases across the USA. US dispatched fighter jets to shoot down the balloon, which crashed into US territorial waters. China, predictably, claimed that the balloon was an unmanned civilian aircraft. Footage on US TV networks showed the balloon falling to the sea after a small explosion.

The balloon was being tracked for a few days and President Joe Biden was under considerable political pressure to order shooting it down. 

The action set off a diplomatic crisis after the Chinese foreign ministry said: “The Chinese side has repeatedly informed the US side after verification that the airship is for civilian use and entered the US due to force majeure – it was completely an accident.”

The crisis led to the US secretary of state Antony Blinken calling off an official  weekend trip to China. China has denied that the balloon was a spying aircraft, and instead said it was a weather ship blown astray.

The incident, however, puts a spanner in the works as far as improvingUS-China relations is concerned.

Modi gets positive about Pathaan

Remember the controversy raked up by pro-Hindutva activists over the Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer Pathaan? Padukone wore an orange (or a hue of saffron) bikini in a song sequence in the film, which the Hindutva brigade found to be offensive. The film, however, went on to break box office records and provided a huge boost to Khan, a Bollywood superstar whose career had been flagging. 

Now, Prime Minister Modi has weighed in with his comments on how the film has fared. Although many of his fanatical followers (in social media troll-speak they are known as Bhakts), have protested against the film, in a speech in Parliament Modi pointed out that cinemas in Kashmir were full during the ongoing screening of Pathaan.

Modi and his government have been at pains to emphasise that things are normalising in the violence-torn state. Cinemas had been reopened in the state after years but the response of the public had been muted. Now, with Pathaan drawing in the crowds, Modi, a canny politician, is capitalising on the move. The HIndutva brigade must be feeling a bit chagrined.

The race for AI chatbots is on

After OpenAI launched its intelligent chatbot, ChatGPT, tech giants such as Microsoft and Google have been racing to develop and launch their own versions of a chat and search engine that closely resembles a near-human nature and abilities. Microsoft pipped Google to the post by launching an enhanced version of its hitherto underwhelming Bing search engine. The new version is powered by OpenAI software and although the jury is out on how good it is, it has at least won the first round against rival Google.

Google, on its part, has announced that it will soon launch Bard, its own version of an AI-driven search and chat interface but when the bot flubbed an answer in a promotional ad, the share prices of Google’s parent company Alphabet dived!

The race for who has the best chatbot is not over yet and much action from tech’s biggest players is expected in the coming months.

Pathaan

‘Pathaan Has Injected a Fresh Lease of Life Into Bollywood’

Priyanka Gupta, a socialite and social worker from Lucknow, says the Shahrukh Khan-starrer ticks all the boxes to qualify as a super-duper entertainer

I am very choosy about the movies to be watched in a theatre. Therefore, before buying tickets for Pathaan, I checked its reviews in the media, sought responses of my friends and the occupancy in the cinema halls before placing my buck on it. I am happy to say that the ticket-money was well spent; the film just blew my mind.

Though I am not a die-hard fan of Shahrukh Khan, from the terrific response of the audience in the cinema halls, I can tell you that the Hindi audience was long waiting for an entertainer like Pathaan. This SRK-entertainer has lived up to the expectations and the hype created before the release. Be it the star power, action sequences, choreography, twist & turns, or the high pitch of Rashtravad (nationalism), the movie ticks all the boxes to qualify as a paisa-wasool blockbuster.

The movie’s never-before kind of success came as a big relief for the cinema hall owners, who had been reeling under financial hardships since Covid times. Even after the theatres had reopened, most of the movies were run of the mill and could not book adequate profit. Not just theatre owners, it has also brought much-needed succour for the struggling Bollywood. Many critics had begun to write off Bollywood studios in favour of the South Indian cinema.

Looking into the gloom that prevailed for the past couple of years, Pathaan comes as a breath of fresh air. I think the negative campaign by various outfits against Shahrukh Khan may have also worked in its favour. The audience is not a fool. If the movie gives us the bang for our buck, we shall watch it. I am glad that wisdom prevailed over negativity. All those Boycott Bollywood, saffron bikini, body-shaming messages finally fell flat on their face.

Gupta (left) calls Pathaan a complete entertainer

Deepika Padukone is not the only star who has worn a bhagwa color outfit in a song. I can count any number of songs on fingertips where heroines had put on clothes of similar colour in far more ‘outrageous’ settings with bawdy lyrics. But Team Shahrukh has to face bigger scrutiny for reasons that I would not like to discuss or elaborate here.

ALSO READ: ‘Pathaan Brings Old World Revelry To Theatres’

The story line is entertaining, so is the background music, action sequences (however unbelievable) and a fast pace. Watching it on a large screen was an engrossing experience. I particularly found the Salman Khan’s cameo as one of the movie’s finest moments; Sallu’s entry set the audience on fire. But overall, it was a collective fare. Shahrukh Khan, Deepika, John Abraham, along with other co-stars, delivered a complete massala hit that Bollywood is known for.

The bottom line is audience will decide for themselves which movie to watch and which movie to abandon. Those who are trying to set an agenda in the field of entertainment will not succeed. To quote a cinematic line for the occasion, Indian audience only wants three things from a movie: Entertainment, entertainment and… entertainment.

Deepika Pathaan Song

Deepika Padukone In Happy Tears Over ‘Pathaan’ Success

Bollywood actor Deepika Padukone on Monday got emotional while speaking about the massive box office phenomenon that ‘Pathaan’ has become, during a success event of the Shah Rukh Khan starrer in Mumbai.

Deepika, Shah Rukh, John Abraham and director Sidharth Anand were present during the ‘Pathaan’ success event which was organized as the film has set the box office on fire globally by earning Rs 542 crore gross worldwide in 5 days.

On Sunday, Deepika visited Mumbai’s iconic Gaiety Galaxy theatre. However, she disguised herself by hiding her face under a black hoodie and a black bask. During the event, the actor was asked by the host about her reaction when visiting the theatre to witness the audience’s response to ‘Pathaan’.

Replying to this while wiping happy tears from her eyes, an emotional Deepika said, “It felt amazing. We had been doing indoor screening for days but finally, I got a chance to get out. I wanted to go on the day of the film’s release but that could not happen. To experience this kind of love, especially when what the world has been through, the fact that a movie like this that can bring people together, that it can bring so much joy and celebration that it almost feels like a festival.”

“When you work honestly and with integrity when you put your head down and just keep going. Then when you see this love and appreciation and get rewarded like this, then it all seems worth it,” she continued.

Meanwhile, talking about her chemistry with Shah Rukh, Deepika said, “In all the films that we have worked on, we have a very good relationship which reflects on screen. There is a lot of respect between us.”

‘Pathaan’ has received a massive response from viewers and SRK’s fandom globally has warmly welcomed the actor to his movie after four years. The film also entered the Rs 100 crore club on its opening day.

With its opening weekend record, it also created two new feats – the fastest Hindi film to breach the Rs 300 crore worldwide barrier and secondly, becoming the first Hindi film to collect over 300 crores gross on its opening weekend.

‘Pathaan’ is on a record-breaking run at the domestic and overseas box office as it collected Rs 542 crore gross worldwide in just 5 days. (ANI)

Pathaan Watching Experience

‘Pathaan Brings Back Old World Fans Revelry To Movie Theatres’

Rituparna Sengupta, who teaches and writes on literature & popular culture, says the movie is a cracking response to the vitriolic trolling SRK has faced lately

I went to watch Pathaan after coming across media reports and social-media videos of over-the-top audience reactions to the film. As a cinema buff and a student of popular culture, I was curious about the movie, especially since the last time a Bollywood film elicited such a charged reaction within the theatre was last year, with The Kashmir Files, though it belongs to a different genre. I was also intrigued by the discourse around Pathaan, dubbed as the triumphant return of not only ‘King Khan’ but also of the single-screen-theatre-like film-viewing experience, with the audience clapping, rooting and whistling in pure joy.

I went for a morning show and found that, indeed, there was this current of jubilance in the audience. Many were taking photos and videos of the film’s scenes, not for pirating it, but just to record memories of watching it on the big screen. The atmosphere was electric.

People came to watch Pathaan for varied reasons—ranging from SRK fandom, to showing solidarity against the vitriolic propaganda against the actor and his family, to the timing of the film’s release (Republic Day). But what interests me is the film’s symbolic value, at multiple levels.

The espionage thriller is a masculine, testosterone-driven drama with loud and flashy stunts, exotic locations, femme fatales, etc. For a romantic hero like SRK—massively popular among female fans—to play such a protagonist, is a gamble. However, instead of ‘hardening’ Shah Rukh Khan to meet the demands of the genre, the film allows SRK to bend the genre to suit his strengths–something that pays off well.

Sengupta (left) says ‘Pathaan’ has trademark romantic SRK at work

For instance, instead of the brash arrogance of the spy hero, here we have a charming character who wears himself lightly and is comfortable not being in the centre of the frame always. We see trademark SRK at work here–husky whispers, eyes-teasing and passionate by-turns, unafraid to Be vulnerable, joking and pretending to be more inept than he is. The way the Pathaan romances with Rubai (Deepika Padukone) is in his characteristic too-near-but-no-further titillating fashion. There is an old world charm about Pathaan’s ‘chivalry’.

ALSO READ: Cancel Culture is Coronavirus of Bollywood

Then there is the suffusion of references to earlier Bollywood films in Pathaan, especially to SRK’s oeuvre, which offer a nostalgic treat to many like me who grew up attached to these films. Watching SRK crooning ‘Tu hai meri Karen’ to a Russian woman, sent the audience tittering in delight, and, similarly, the exclamation ‘Bhaag Pathaan, bhaag!’ brought to mind a similar scene from the cult favourite, Karan Arjun.

I think the highlight for many who watched the film were the sequences that brought together Shah Rukh and Salman (in a surprise cameo) who have been seen as forming the ruling Khan triad (along with Aamir) in Bollywood of the post-liberalisation decades. To see these competing actors come together as allies, but also in such good humour, was fun.

The film’s political standpoint is conservative, but in a cultural climate where jingoism is incentivised and Bollywood is succumbing to it, the film takes pains to clarify its preference for a popular, secular patriotism. When a rogue Indian agent (played by John Abraham) taunts Pathaan about his unrequited love for ‘Bharat Mata’, Pathaan responds with ‘Jai Hind’ and JFK’s iconic quote about not asking what the nation can do for you but what you can do for it. On the face value, it’s a cliché, but seen as the response of a hounded star who has responded to Islamophobic vitriol with dignified silence, it becomes eloquent.

The film builds up Pathaan’s character as a people’s hero—someone whose identity is not defined by parentage or religion, but by the affection and trust of the people who welcome him, give him his name, and a mission to fulfill–being the molten gold that holds together the broken pieces of a wounded nation. And it is the symbolic charge of this ‘Pathaan promise’ of a people’s beloved star, which has made the film the phenomenon it is.

Shah Rukh Khan

We Have A Beautiful Relationship: Deepika On Pairing With SRK

Ahead of the highly anticipated release of Shah Rukh Khan starrer ‘Pathaan’, the film’s female lead Deepika Padukone recently spoke about how her magical pairing with SRK has always managed to deliver a blockbuster.

Deepika made her Bollywood debut in 2007 alongside the superstar in ‘Om Shanti Om’. Following that she again worked with SRK in ‘Chennai Express’ and ‘Happy New Year’, with all of the films proving to be successful at the box office.
Now, with ‘Pathaan’ set to release on January 25, in a video shared by the movie’s production house, Yash Raj Films, Deepika said, “Shah Rukh & I have been very lucky to have had the opportunity to work in some incredible movies starting with ‘Om Shanti Om’! I’m collaborating with my most favourite co-star Shah Rukh. We have a beautiful relationship and I think the audience always see that in the movies that we do.”

Speaking about their on-screen chemistry and the work they have put into the upcoming action-thriller, she continued, “Well, he and I can both take credit for that. Again he was also on this intense diet and exercise. So, he and I can both take credit for the work we have put individually. But at the end of the day, it is the team that you work with.”

“Whether it is the director (Siddharth Anand) and his vision or it’s the cinematographer (Satchith Paulose) and how he is envisioning lighting us, whether it’s the stylist (Shaleena Nathani) – how she envisions these characters, whether it is your hair and make-up team. So, it’s your entire team that sort of comes together, so sure you can put in the work and do the best you can but you also have incredible world-class professionals who come in and make us look the way we do!” added Deepika.

For Deepika, ‘Pathaan’ is a very special film in her filmography. She will play the role of a ruthless spy and will be seen pulling off jaw-dropping action sequences.

“The character that I am playing in this movie is extremely exciting, it is something that I haven’t done before and even the movie – just this kind of spy thriller, an out-and-out action movie is something I haven’t done before,” she siad.

‘Pathaan’ is part of Aditya Chopra’s ambitious spy universe and stars SRK, Deepika and John Abraham. The adrenaline-pumping film will come out in theatres in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. (ANI)

SRK Gives A Cute Name To New Mommy Alia

Actors Shah Rukh Khan and Alia Bhatt, who worked together in ‘Dear Zindagi’ in 2016, share a great bond.

Whenever they get a chance to talk about each other in public, the two always have good things to say. The stars’ fun banter on Twitter is proof of this fact.
After a long time, Alia and SRK interacted on Twitter during the latter’s #AskSRK session on Wednesday.

A social media user asked SRK why does Alia call him SR. The user’s question caught SRK’s attention and he replied, “Could mean sweet and romantic or maybe senior and respected or maybe just shah rukh.”

Alia was quick to respond as she clarified what she means when she calls the Badshah of Bollywood ‘SR’.

She tweeted, “More like sweet and respected …But from 25th Jan I’m going to switch to calling you Pathaan. See I’m so creative na.”

To Alia’s tweet, SRK gave a cute response. He called the new mommy in town Alia Bhatt “Lil Amma Bhatt Kapoor.”

“Done Lil one. And I am now going to call u Lil Amma Bhatt Kapoor,” he responded.

Apart from ‘Dear Zindagi’, Alia and SRK also have worked together on ‘Darlings’, which was released on Netflix in 2022. Alia co-produced the film with Shah Rukh.

SRK also praised actor Deepika Padukone during his #AskSRK session.

When a user asked him to describe Deepika in one word, he tweeted, “She is so nice it’s unbelievable…”

SRK and Deepika will be seen soon in ‘Pathaan’, which also stars John Abraham. The film is scheduled to hit the theatres on January 25, 2023. (ANI)
