Pathan teaser: Majestic return of Shah Rukh

Shah Rukh Khan has shared the first teaser for ‘Pathan’. The film marks his comeback to movies after almost four years.

‘Pathan’ is directed by Siddharth Anand and also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. Shah Rukh plays a spy in the action-thriller, reports Hindustan Times.

Sharing the teaser, he wrote, “I know it’s late… But remember the date… Pathaan time starts now…See you in cinemas on 25th January, 2023. Releasing in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. Celebrate #Pathaan with #YRF50 only at a big screen near you.”

In the trailer, John and Deepika take turns to introduce ‘Pathan’. They talk about how he is nameless and his one goal in life is to protect his country at any cost. Shah Rukh is seen walking out of the shadows in a white shirt and long hair as he speaks about his love for the country.

Shah Rukh was last seen on the big screen in Aanand L Rai’s 2018 directorial, Zero. The film starred Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma as well but failed to make an impact at the box office.

Deepika was last seen in Amazon Prime release ‘Gehraiyaan’. ‘Pathan’ marks her fourth film with Shah Rukh after ‘Om Shanti Om’, ‘Chennai Express’ and ‘Happy New Year’.

Deepika’s other projects include ‘Fighter’ with Hrithik Roshan, another film with Prabhas and a Hindi remake of ‘The Intern’. John will be seen in ‘Attack’ and ‘Ek Villain 2’ as well.

While he did not take up any acting jobs in the last few years, Shah Rukh has been busy with his production ventures.
