Mumbai, June 25 - The moment Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan fans have been waiting for is finally here as they got to see a glimpse of SRK's keenly-anticipated film Pathaan.

The first look motion poster of "Pathaan", which marks SRK's comeback to the movies after more than 4 years, was unveiled on June 25, which marks the 30th anniversary of "Deewana" (1992), Khan's film debut. The first look poster features a deadly gun-toting SRK.



"Pathaan" is being directed by "War" fame Siddharth Anand and he chooses this special day to present SRK as Pathaan to his millions of fans globally. "Thirty years of Shah Rukh Khan is a cinematic moment in itself in the history of Indian cinema and we wanted to celebrate it with his millions and millions of fans globally", Anand said to Variety.

"Today is Shah Rukh Khan day and we need to tell the world that. This is team Pathaan's way of saying thank you to Shah Rukh for the countless memories and smiles that he has given all of us in his incredible journey in cinema", he added.

"Pathaan" is part of Yash Raj Films' spy universe, which also includes the "Tiger" franchise, starring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, and "War", starring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff. Talking about SRK-fronted film, Siddharth Anand said that it will set new benchmarks for the action genre in India.



"He (SRK as Pathaan) is the alpha man on a mission in this action spectacle that will hopefully set new benchmarks for the action genre in India. When you have Shah Rukh Khan in your film, along with superstars like Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, you have to reach for the stars in every department and I don't think we will disappoint on that promise with 'Pathaan'", Siddharth said.

"Pathaan", produced by Aditya Chopra of Yash Raj Films, is due to release on January 25, 2023, during India's Republic Day weekend, in the Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu languages.
