OVERCAME ADVERSITY WITH PATHAAN

This year Shah Rukh Khan marked a remarkable return with his blockbuster film ‘Pathaan,’ eagerly anticipated by his fans.

Shah Rukh Khan’s enduring appeal lies in his ability to bridge the realms of reel and real, action and emotion, romance and love, dreams and reality, ultimately connecting movies with their audience.
