SRK's Pathaan team releases teaser on his birthday

Bollywood's king Shah Rukh Khan celebrated his 57th birthday by releasing his upcoming film Pathaan's teaser. It is his much-anticipated comeback on the big screen after over four years.

Apart from Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham also made an appearance in the teaser. Fans are excited about the action-packed scenes and the movie is expected to be a box-office hit. SRK was seen in a rugged look in the teaser.

In the short video, a voice is heard asking what anyone knows about Pathaan and another answer no one has heard of him in three years. "He was caught during a mission. It is rumoured that he was tortured. No one knows whether he is dead or alive." Soon, SRK's character is seen confirming that he is alive with a devilish laugh. Then the teaser takes off to a mix of action-packed scenes involving Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham.

Many fans appreciated the adrenaline rush the teaser offered and said this is a birthday gift from Khan to his fans. Director Siddharth Anand told Pinkvilla that Pathaan is more than just a film but an emotion for the team. "We are aiming to make the biggest action spectacle with one of the all-time biggest on-screen icons that Indian cinema has ever seen. The teaser is just the beginning to deliver on that promise on the big screen on Jan 25, 2023."

"The craze for a glimpse of Pathaan has been unprecedented. After a long, long time there's an insane buzz for a film that is genuine and organic. And it's all due to the superstardom of this one man - Shah Rukh Khan. His fans and we are talking millions of them, have been clamouring for just a peek at him and his film. And thus, there could be no better day to put out the teaser of Pathaan than SRK's birthday," he added.
