Bollywood actor Deepika Padukone has reportedly joined her co-stars After Shah Rukh Khan and John Abraham for the shoot of YRF’s Pathan in Mumbai. The iconic pairing of Deepika and SRK has always given blockbusters including Om Shanti Om, Chennai Express and Happy New Year.
Director Siddharth Anand hopes that his ambitious spy action spectacle, Pathan will also create history when it releases in theatres.
“After SRK and John, now Deepika starts shooting for the much-anticipated Pathan. It’s really amazing to see the big superstars of our generation starting to shoot despite the pandemic. It gives out a strong, positive message to the industry and when you have a huge film like Pathan on floors, the industry breathes a fresh lease of life. Deepika will be shooting with Shah Rukh till the schedule wrap of Pathan which should happen in the next 15-20 days,” reported a source.
“While we aren’t hearing much about Deepika’s role in the film, you can be rest assured that she will be in her fittest, hottest best in Pathan. Her role will blow our minds and it will be hugely talked about. The film, we hear, will see Deepika in a never seen before avatar and we are really excited to see how Siddharth Anand and Aditya Chopra unveil her character. Deepika and SRK have always created magic on the big screen and we can expect nothing less than a full-blown masala, visual extravaganza that will pull people back to the theatres,” the source added.
