It’s been four years since Shah Rukh Khan appeared on the big screen in a leading capacity with his last release being the 2018 film Zero, but this year, the actor teased his fans with some memorable guest appearances in Rocketry: The Nambi Effect, Laal Singh Chaddha and Brahmastra: Part One- Shiva. With 2023 all set to start, the badshah is also set to give three big offerings to his audience and more than make up for his absence from the screen and it all starts with his first release of 2023, Pathaan.

On Saturday, Shah Rukh had one of his famous Ask SRK sessions on Twitter, and once again, the superstar made some revelations, showed his witty side and gave some things to look forward to. So, when one of the fans asked Shah Rukh, What’s ur prediction for first day of PATHAAN? #Asksrk (sic),” he humbly replied, I am not in the business of predictions…I am in the business of entertaining you and to make u smile… (sic)”.

Check out SRK’s interaction here:

While Pathaan is one of the most awaited releases of the year, it is currently also in the news for the controversy surrounding Deepika’s outfit in the film’s first song Besharam Rang. However, SRK responded to that controversy too with utmost grace at Kolkata International Film Festival when he asserted on the power of positivity. After Pathaan, SRK will treat his audiences with Jawan and Dunki too next year.
