Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan ticket rates reduced by 25 percent

According to Mid-Day, producer Aditya Chopra decided to cut down prices after the five-day extended weekend. Usually, the producer and exhibitors reduce the prices in the second week of a film’s release but YRF chose to take the unusual road. The trade analysts went on to call it a ‘strategic move’. Reducing the ticket rates will only help the film to grow bigger. Well, it will be interesting to see how much Pathaan rakes in its lifetime. 

Team Pathaan celebrates the big success

On Monday evening, SRK, Deepika, John and Siddharth Anand were seen attending the first press meet in the city. They were seen celebrating the massive success of Pathaan with fans and the media. The trio was seen thanking everyone for an overwhelming response. While thanking his fans, SRK also revealed that he was excited to do Pathaan after he heard that John was a part of it. 

He said, “The good part was when I heard that John is doing the film, I really wanted to work with him. I and Sid convinced him, and thank you John for taking up the film. It’s nice to be back. I am never in a rush to finish a film because I have a genuine desire to spread love among people and when that doesn’t happen I am the most affected by that. I am grateful to Adi (Aditya Chopra), Sid and everyone for this film, it has done really well. I have forgotten the last four years because of the last 4 days.”

Pathaan also starred Dimple Kapadia and Ashutosh Rana in key roles. Superstar Salman Khan too made a starry special appearance in the film as Tiger. The audience loved watching SRK and Salman’s quirky banter. Pathaan is now a part of YRF’s spy universe.
