New Delhi: ‘Pathaan’ is being touted as India’s one of the biggest action spectacles that audiences have ever seen on the big screen. ‘Pathaan’ is a visually stunning action extravaganza from Yash Raj Films. It is part of Aditya Chopra's ambitious spy universe and stars Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham.
The makers are constantly dropping breadcrumbs to the fans and audiences so that they are constantly discovering new information about this most anticipated film in recent times. To this point, John Abraham's persona has been shrouded in a certain amount of mystery.
YRF released the jukebox of Pathaan on Friday and it interestingly has a Pathaan theme track and a Jim theme track which led to fans figuring out that John, who plays Pathaan’s arch-enemy, is going to be called Jim!
Director Siddharth Anand had earlier revealed that he will present John in a super slick avatar in Pathaan. He had said, “I have always believed in the fact that the villain’s projection should be as big, if not bigger than that of the hero’s. Only when the villain is massive, can the tussle between them be spectacular. And we have an extraordinary battle when SRK takes on John!”
The first song of the spy-thriller ‘Pathaan’, ‘Besharam Rang’ drew a lot of controversy because of the saffron colour bikini sported by Deepika in the song. The Hindutva activists across the country have raised objections to the dance sequence where Shah Rukh Khan is wearing a green colour shirt and Deepika is flaunting a saffron outfit.
YRF’s adrenaline pumping film is set to release on Jan 25, 2023 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
