Pathaan director Siddharth Anand reveals concept of Shah Rukh Khan’s role; says, “Wanted to make SRK the symbol of alpha machismo”

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’ action extravaganza, Pathaan, is part of Aditya 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 Shah Rukh Khan as a gun-toting spy with a license to kill. Siddharth talks about the vision for the superstar’s uber-cool look in Pathaan that has become a rage with people already.

Siddharth says, “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!”

He adds, “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.”

Siddharth further says, “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.”

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

The film starring Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar, and Kiara Advani will release directly on OTT, with the film streaming on Disney+ Hotstar. While there still is time till the film releases, Bollywood Hungama gives you five reasons why Govinda Naam Mera is a definite must watch.

Casting: Starting off we have to admit the unique casting of the film is a massive draw. With powerhouse performers like Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar and of course Kiara Advani, who has been on a high this year, one can expect nothing less than perfection. In fact, witnessing the chemistry between Vicky and Kiara will be a sight to behold if going by past experience from Lust Stories the two are sure to captivate the audience.

Performances: Coming to the performances, with Vicky Kaushal playing a never seen before character, the Uri actor will be seen in an out and out tapori role, contrary to the usually serious characters he has played on screens. Besides this, Vicky will also be seen shaking a leg to the foot tapping numbers in the film.

Apart from Vicky, Govinda Naam Mera also boasts of stellar performances from Bhumi Pednekar and Kiara Advani. While Bhumi has over the past enthralled us her on screen presence and characterisation of various roles, Kiara on the other hand has fast become the nation’s favourite this year.

Unique Story: Unlike conventional Bollywood entertainers, Govinda Naam Mera features a quirky story with twists galore. In fact, the film promises to be a masala potboiler that will entertain the young and old alike.

Dialoguebaazi: Coming to the dialogues in the film, need we ask for more proof after Bhumi Pednekar revealed that the film features some unconventional material. In a statement made by the actress talking about the film, Pednekar revealed, “I honestly have loved delivering the punches in the film and I have to admit that I have been given some of the most hilarious punchlines by Shashank”. Continuing further the actress had added, “What I love the most about my dialoguebaazi in Govinda Naam Mera is that they are from the heroine’s side and that’s refreshing for a romantic comedy in the Hindi film industry because traditionally only heroes used to get all the great dialogues in a genre like this and make people laugh.”

Music: Talking about the music of the film has already feature two songs that have captivated the audience in the form of ‘Bijli’ and ‘Bana Sharabi’. With three more tracks to come, we are sure that we will be seeing Vicky dancing a lot more. In fact, the actor a while back had gone on record to state that for Govinda Naam Mera he had taken dancing tips from wife Katrina Kaif. Given his teacher, we are sure that Vicky will burn the dance floor.

In conclusion, Govinda Naam Mera, which features, humours, thrills, suspense and a story that will enthral all makes for a perfect holiday potboiler to be enjoyed by the entire family.
