Pathaan: Shah Rukh Khan once said he is the last of the stars and his latest offering proved his statement. At a time when Bollywood is failing at the box office, the film has set the cash registers ringing, raking in Rs 400 cr in just 4 days worldwide. In yet another testament to his stardom, Pathaan was recently screened at Rashtrapati Bhavan culture centre.
Rashtrapati culture centre screens Pathaan
It seems like even the government has also been affected by the Pathaan wave. On Saturday, a screening of the film was organised at the Rashtrapati culture centre which saw many officials in attendance. In a photo posted by SM Khan, who worked as the late President Dr APJ Abdul Kalam’s secretary from 2002 until 2007, was seen posing with two other officials. Another picture featured a scene from the movie which had Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan together in a scene.
SM Khan’s tweet prompted many reactions from the netizens. While many said it’s a slap on the face of boycott gang, other said it’s no place to screen a movie. “Will you boycott the Rashtrapati bhavan now,” one user wrote, while another mentioned, “This is the power of Shah Rukh Khan.”
