During the same event, SRK took a moment to acknowledge the life-changing milestones he has recently achieved, from winning a National Award to having a bronze Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge statue installed in London, and now a skyscraper named after him. He emotionally shared, “I’ve become someone my parents can look down on proudly from heaven.”
Chile to become a key location for Pathaan 2?
Production for Pathaan 2 is expected to begin next year, with Chile emerging as a major international shooting location. During Chilean President Gabriel Boric Font’s recent visit to India, both nations discussed cinematic collaboration, including concrete talks about filming the sequel in the South American country. The aim is to bring Chile’s breathtaking landscapes to the global stage through Indian cinema.
Tiger vs Pathaan Crossover
Early industry reports suggest that Pathaan 2 will not only develop SRK’s storyline but also lay the thematic groundwork for the much-anticipated crossover Tiger vs Pathaan, making it a crucial chapter in the Spy Universe’s larger arc.
