If the content material is nice, it would transcend Shah Rukh Khan’s earlier movies.”
“Nonetheless, if you’re underneath the impression that it’ll get a gap of a ‘Jawan’ or a ‘Pathaan,’ that won’t occur. I imagine the opening will likely be round Rs 35cr on day one in all its launch.

I’ve full religion within the director who has a way of excellent content material, and if he has made a movie with the precise content material with Shah Rukh Khan, then it might be one other massive hit,” Komal added.
