Salman Khan In Pathaan

While Bhai's entry is just for 15 minutes, his presence brings an interesting twist to the action-drama. Opening up on Salman's entry, a source close to the project said, "From helicopter to guns and hand to hand combats - you will see Salman Khan acing the space that he excels in to rescue his friend Shah Rukh Khan from tough times of being trapped by Russian Mafia."

"And that combo will be back soon in a full-fledged film, as a crossover of Tiger and Pathaan is in the making. The idea of Aditya Chopra is to celebrate two of Hindi Cinema's biggest megastars - Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan," the source further added.

Pathaan is an extension of Aditya Chopra's ambitious spy universe that kicked-off with the 2012 release Ek Tha Tiger headlined by Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif. The spy universe will be further joined by Bollywood's megastars like Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff to become one of the industry's monstrous film universes.

Meanwhile, Pathaan has seen a massive opening in over 100 countries. It is the biggest opening any Hindi movie has ever seen till now.
