On the occasion of Deepika Padukone’s birthday, Shah Rukh Khan released a special poster featuring her character from their upcoming film “Pathaan.” This film, a spy thriller directed by Siddharth Anand, marks Khan’s return to starring roles after a hiatus of over four years. In the past, glimpses of Padukone’s character have been seen in the film’s teaser and in two songs that were previously released. One of these songs, “Besharam Rang,” has caused controversy and has been criticized by some members of the right-wing for its visuals. India’s censor board chief has also raised concerns about the song.
The new poster shows Padukone’s character posing stylishly with a gun in her hand and scratches on her face. She appears to be standing next to a cave entrance, looking ready for action. We will better understand her character when the film’s first trailer is released, which is expected to happen next week.
Sharing the poster on Instagram, Khan wrote, “To my dearest @deepikapadukone – how you have evolved to own the screen in every avatar possible! Always proud and always wishing for you to scale new heights… happy birthday… lots of love…” Khan and Padukone have a long history of working together, having starred opposite each other in several films such as “Om Shanti Om,” “Happy New Year,” and “Chennai Express.” In these films, they have showcased their strong chemistry and have proven to be a successful on-screen pair.
Both actors also made cameos in the recent fantasy drama “Brahmāstra: Part One – Shiva,” but did not share any scenes. Fans of the duo are excited to see them reunited in “Pathaan,” and are looking forward to the film’s release. It will be interesting to see how their characters and the plot of the film unfold when the trailer is released next week. “Pathaan” is releasing in theatres on 25th Jan 2023 in Hindi, Tamil & Telugu language.
