Pathaan, directed by Siddharth Anand, is part of YRF’s Spy Universe. Among those who appear in the film are Ashutosh Rana and Dimple Kapadia. It also includes a cameo appearance by Salman Khan.
In a new video that was released by Yash Raj Films, Shah Rukh Khan describes how he evolved into a romantic hero when his childhood dream of becoming an action hero was not realized. “I’ve always wanted to be an action hero, so it’s a dream come true for me,” he said. I entered the movie industry 32 years ago hoping to be an action flick, but they turned me into a romantic hero rather!”
