Learning experience

Everybody is praising and talking about Shah Rukh Khan’s latest flick “Pathaan.” The film has managed to earn Rs1,000 crore this week. It has become a blockbuster. It is great to see SRK back in action after a long break. He looked dapper in the film and succeeded in changing his gear from romanticism to action. His fans were waiting for his film for four years and that’s why “Pathaan” had been a very special film for everyone.

Bollywood, which was crawling post-pandemic, has got a major boost with “Pathaan’s ” success. Once again SRK has made Bollywood fans gravitate towards cinema halls to watch his film, a habit which had got interrupted due to the Covid-19 pandemic. I have read that in India people went early in the morning to watch the film while here in the UAE, I also saw cinema lovers queuing outside theatres at 10am to watch it. There is no doubt that SRK is a global star. He has fans almost everywhere, be it India, UAE, America, Germany or Iraq. I really appreciate the way SRK has managed to keep himself at the top of the business. We should learn professionalism from his cinematic journey. He deserves all the respect and love from his fans for what he has done to Hindi cinema. I hope he keeps entertaining his fans the way he has done.
