Shah Rukh Khan’s 'Pathaan' look both alpha & machismo: Siddharth Anand

New Delhi: Filmmaker Aditya Chopra and ace director Siddharth Anand are trying to make 'Pathaan', India’s biggest ever action spectacle for audiences.

The visually spectacular Yash Raj Films' (YRF) action extravaganza, ‘Pathaan’, is part of Chopra’s ambitious spy universe and has the biggest superstars of the country Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in it.

The adrenaline pumping, visually extravagant film presents SRK as a gun totting spy with a license of kill. Siddharth talks about the vision for the superstar’s uber cool look in ‘Pathaan’ that has become a rage with people already.

Siddharth said in a statement, “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!"

"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," he shared.

"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," he added.

'Pathaan' is set to release on January 25, 2023 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. (UNI)
