He adds, “We wanted to capture the essence of his character which is inherently cool through what he wears and also his hairstyle. We wanted to make SRK the symbol of alpha and machismo, someone who is effortlessly cool and hot at the same time, through his look.”Aditya Chopra and ace director Siddharth Anand are attempting to make Pathaan India’s largest-ever action spectacle! Pathaan, a visually stunning Yash Raj Films production, is part of Aditya Chopra’s spy universe and stars the country’s top actors Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham.
The action-packed, visually stunning film stars Shah Rukh Khan as a spy with a licence to kill. Siddharth discusses his vision for the superstar’s uber-cool look in Pathaan, which has already proven to be popular.
Siddharth commented on the same and said, “Shah Rukh Khan has sported countless looks that have shaped the pop-culture of our country and inspired generations of youngsters to dress like the king of Bollywood. His looks are associated with moments and memories of people and it won’t be wrong to say that he has made India more fashionable through his style in films. So, it was a task and a big challenge to craft a look that is extremely different for SRK, who is playing a daredevil spy in Pathaan!”
Siddharth further says, “Going by the reaction his look is getting, I think we have done the job of giving his millions of fans worldwide yet another look that they can be proud of and shower love upon.”
Pathaan is set to release on Jan 25, 2023 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
