Pathaan, which is making new records at the Box office is the film that marks the reunion of Salman and Shah Rukh. Salman made a guest appearance as Tiger in Pathaan and the scene got loud cheers from the audience in theatres. SRK opens up during an interaction after the success of the film and tells that he has kept Salman’s scarf as a momento from the scene.
Talking about their reunion on screen after such a long time Salman Khan said, “For Shah Rukh and I to come together on the big screen, it always needed a special film and I’m glad Pathaan is that film. When we did Karan Arjun, it was a blockbuster and now, Pathaan, which is part of YRF’s Spy Universe, has also turned out to be a blockbuster. I’m aware that audiences love to see us together on screen and I’m happy that they have given us so much love in Pathaan. I was floored when Adi narrated the sequence to me and told me about his vision to bring us together on screen again.”
He also said, “His (Aditya Chopra’s) intention was to play at the gallery and give our fans and audiences what they wanted to see from us. Given how closely Adi has known Shah Rukh and me, he truly managed to capture how we are as personalities in the scenes. This is why people are loving us on screen. Also, the way Sidharth executed the sequence and presented us was just brilliant. I’m happy for Shah Rukh and YRF for all the records that Pathaan is achieving. It is a huge win for Indian cinema that we are able to bring people back to the theatres after the pandemic.”
Meanwhile, Shah Rukh who was very thrilled to work with his close friend Salman said, “Trust me when I say this, Salman and I have always wanted to act together but we were waiting for the right film, the right script because we both knew that there would be incredible excitement to see us on screen but we would have to deliver that promise to audiences because they love us so much. If not, they would be mighty dejected and it wouldn’t work for the project. Matlab fans ka sawaal hai, choti script pe nahi chod sakte types!!”
The actor also added, “So, when Adi told me about the idea to bring the two super spies from YRF’s Spy Universe, Tiger, and Pathaan, together to do some kick-ass action scenes, which I’m hoping many people have seen by now, I instantly jumped at it because this idea was delivering the promise of seeing Salman and I on the big screen. I’m delighted that people have loved seeing us together in Pathaan.”
Talking about Salman’s scarf which he kept with him the actor said, “I know it was a long wait for fans to see us like this on screen and I’m glad that we have delivered a film that they are thoroughly enjoying. Besides this, it’s too much fun with Bhai on sets. I had missed being with him on screen so it all turned out as it should…and that Tiger scarf I am keeping as a momento!!”
Well, SRK and Salman want to come together on-screen again and make their fans thrilled as they did in Karan Arjun. They are looking for a perfect film to work on together.
