She added, “For laughing, cheering, moving to the beats of the music, getting teary eyed and having your popcorn while all of this goes on. And for the sheer sorcery of Shah Rukh Khan’s peerless charisma as it explodes with that first big reveal and sweeps you away until the credits roll. Like an untamed wild animal in his most natural habitat. Watching Pathaan was all things I love and live for as a cinema lover and artist. Long live the magic. Long live the movies.”

Karan Johar had earlier shared his review of Pathaan saying, “I don’t remember when I last had such a fun time at the movies!!!! This one’s just the biggest blockbuster!!! Mega is the word!!! The charm, charisma, superstardom, desirability and sheer brilliance of @iamsrk… the hottest, beautiful and sensationally gorgeous agent you will ever find @deepikapadukone the sexiest and most desirable villain @thejohnabraham!!! Brilliantly directed and conceptualised by SID ANAND! He knows how to mount a film like very few can…. I am so so so proud of my BFF the invisible ADITYA CHOPRA!!! You may never see him! But his vision and brilliance is insurmountable!” He also referred to the constant boycott calls and slander that had been plaguing the film as well as Bollywood for the past few years, indicating that this was a triumph for SRK.

Pathaan marks SRK’s return to the big screen after four years. The film has already crossed Rs 280 crore in India, breaking several records, and is set to defeat Dangal’s lifetime collections as well.
