Via Bollywood Hungama https://ift.tt/DOIlYtjActor Neha Dhupia attracted headlines in 2004 when she asserted that “either sex sells or Shah Rukh Khan.” She had mentioned that since Shah Rukh was not there in Julie (2004), the movie needed to contain love-making scenes and shots in response to a question about her doing intimate scenes. In the movie, which also starred Priyanshu Chatterjee and Sanjay Kapoor, Neha played a sex worker. After viewing Pathaan on Republic Day 2023, Neha re-examined her earlier statement on Shah Rukh and recently praised him on Twitter.
The actor responded to a Twitter follower on Saturday who commented on the success of Pathaan at the box office. She wrote, “Almost two decades back Neha Dhupia had given a statement ‘only sex or Shah Rukh Khan sells’ and that stays true even today!” In reaction to the tweet, Neha tweeted, “20 years on, my statement rings true. This is not an “actor’s career” but a “king’s reign”! #KingKhan @iamsrk.”
20 years on, my statement rings true.
This is not an “actor’s career” but a “King’s reign”! #KingKhan @iamsrk https://t.co/TMgPzpJed4— Neha Dhupia (@NehaDhupia) January 28, 2023
During an interview with The Times of India in 2004, Neha made the following statement, “Julie has love-making scenes and shots exposing my bare back… I’m not affected by the sex symbol tag. It doesn’t bother me if people say I have overshadowed Mallika Sherawat and Bipasha Basu by exposing in Julie. In today’s time, either sex sells or Shah Rukh Khan. So I would rather be a sex prop in my next five films.”
Neha had already taken to Twitter on Thursday to compliment Pathaan, Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in a series of tweets. Neha shared a snapshot of a shirtless Shah Rukh from the action blockbuster, which was released in theatres throughout the world on January 25. She tweeted, “Shah Rukh, the love we have for you is hard to explain. Deepika Padukone, you set the screen on fire with your gaze and your kicks and tricks. John Abraham you make bad look so good! Salman Khan we would go back to the cinemas to watch the best cameo in history. Pathaan is here to stay!!!”

He had stated, “We want the euphoria around (Shah Rukh Khan’s) return to reach a crescendo by January 25, the release date of Pathaan. Thus, we will start all our promotional activities only post the release of the film.”
Bollywood Hungama has now learnt that the much-awaited and impending event of Pathaan is expected to finally take place tomorrow. A source spilled the beans, “It is said that the event is expected take place on Monday, January 30, in Mumbai. Apart from Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, John Abraham and Siddharth Anand will also make their presence felt. It’ll be one of the biggest events of the year. The media has been waiting to see Shah Rukh and to interact with him. As a result, a large turnout of the media is expected. The event will also get a huge viewership from fans and netizens as even they are curious to see what their favourite superstar has to say in his trademark witty style, especially after the way the film has performed at the box office.”
Meanwhile, Pathaan has collected around Rs. 51 to 53 crores on Saturday at the domestic box office, as per early estimates. On Sunday, it is expected to earn even more, with the five-day collections closing at around Rs. 275 crores. In overseas, it is expected to cross the $20 million mark by Sunday, which will be a record of sorts.
