SRK teases fans with John Abraham’s fierce look as ‘Pathaan’ villain, gives netizens goosebumps [WATCH]

New Delhi: Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan left the fans elated on Thursday as he dropped the first look of actor John Abraham from his upcoming film Pathaan via a motion poster on Instagram.

Motion poster stars with a time bomb ticking with rapid speed, and as soon as it explodes, John can be seen emerging on the screen in sassy combat gear. Abraham, who is playing the main antagonist in Pathaan is renowned for his action roles in Hindi movies.

John’s first look has been unveiled five months prior to the official theatrical release of the film, which marks Shah Rukh Khan’s return to the big screens after a long gap of four years. Pathaan features actress Deepika Padukone opposite SRK in the lead role.

“He’s tough and plays it rough! Presenting @thejohnabraham in #Pathaan. Celebrate #Pathaan with #YRF50 only at a big screen near you on 25th January, 2023”, wrote Khan on Instagram while sharing the motion poster.
