Pathaan has been the buzz of the town since it marks Shah Rukh Khan's comeback to the big screen after a lengthy break. Pathaan's announcement had everyone enthusiastic about the cast, which included Shah Rukh, John Abraham, and Deepika Padukone. Now, in an exclusive interview with Pinkvilla, John Abraham, who will be featured in the film with Shah Rukh, has given his thoughts on the actor and revealed when he will return to shoot for the project.

Abraham remembered how SRK once evaluated a modelling competition in which he was competing. In an interview with Pinkvilla, John Abraham stated that SRK was responsible for his current position, as he began modelling after SRK judged the event. "Shah Rukh Khan is, how do I say, he's responsible for where I am because when I started modelling he was the judge on the show. So I owe a lot to Shah Rukh. Probably for him it was just another competition that he judged. There's a lot of deep-rooted respect that I have that I can't really talk about. But, he's a wonderful person. He's very charming, he's lovely and supremely intelligent. It's all I can say,” he stated

The Attack (2022) actor went on to say that SRK is a wonderful, charming, and 'lovely' person, and that he has a lot of 'deep-rooted' respect for him.

Siddharth Anand's Pathaan will be released in January 2023 and also stars Deepika Padukone.
