Over the past year, Shah Rukh Khan fans have pondered which project would mark their most favourite actor’s return to Bollywood after a hiatus of 2 years. When quizzed about him coming back, Shah Rukh Khan merely said anything. Now, according to a report by MidDay, we have learnt that the superstar is all set to come back to a film set —the actor will kick start the shoot of Siddharth Anand‘s Pathan at Yash Raj Films studios in Andheri by the end of November. The film will also see Deepika Padukone and John Abraham playing the antagonist.

The film is touted to be an action-packed one. The publication quoted a source as saying—

The first schedule will be a two-month affair that will focus solely on Shah Rukh’s portions, after which the unit will take a New Year’s break. Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, who plays the antagonist, will join the second stint that is slated for January 2021. Like Siddharth’s previous outing War [2019], Pathan will be a slick and stylish revenge drama. Since the film marks Shah Rukh and John’s first on-screen union, Adi and Siddharth have etched out dramatic scenes featuring them. They have roped in action director Parvez Shaikh, who has worked on War, Brahmastra and Bell Bottom, to design high-octane fight sequences between the duo.

SRK has been donning a long hair and facial fuzz look during his appearances at the ongoing IPL. The report suggests that it is the part of his look for the action-thriller.

I am extremely excited to see SRK back in action!
