"It's nice to be back," said Shah Rukh Khan on his comeback to the silver screen after four years.
Khan said he is never in a hurry to complete a film. "It is my genuine desire that I am able to distribute happiness among people. And when I fail at it, it doesn't hurt anyone as much as it hurts me. So i am very happy now that I could make you all happy," he said.
"Pathaan" follows the titular Indian intelligence agent (SRK), who returns from exile to thwart a terror attack planned by mercenary group Outfit X, led by Jim (John Abraham) on the Indian capital.
The film, which is Shah Rukh's first big screen release as a lead in four years, also features Deepika Padukone, Dimple Kapadia and Ashutosh Rana in pivotal roles.
"Pathaan" is the fourth movie in producer Aditya Chopra's spy universe, following Salman Khan's "Ek Tha Tiger" and "Tiger Zinda Hai", and "War", featuring Hrithik Roshan.
The movie, which according to YRF has broken over 21 box office records, also has a guest appearance by Salman as fellow spy Tiger.
