Pathaan starring Shah Rukh Khan was released on the 25th but even before the release, the film broke many records at the box office.

Directed by Siddharth Anand, the film also stars Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in pivotal roles. While the film is currently receiving immense love from the fans across the globe, prior to the release, we witnessed a lot of boycott trends where netizens mercilessly trolled the actors, especially Deepika wearing saffron coloured bikini in the song ‘Besharam Rang’.

As reported by ANI, Union Minister Anurag Thakur spoke at an event and indirectly quoted Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Pathaan’ without taking its name and said, “Our movies are today earning praise worldwide. When people talk negative… they just ruin the environment. And just to spoil the narrative, sometimes people comment without full information.”
