In less than two weeks, Shah Rukh Khan's movie Pathaan will be released in theatres. On January 10, 2023, the movie's trailer was released. The trailer was also shown on Dubai's Burj Khalifa, the highest building in the world. According to the most recent rumours, the movie will debut on Prime Video in April of this year.
On Monday, the Delhi High Court ordered Pathaan's producers to make the required changes to the movie for its OTT release. In accordance with the 2016 Right of Persons with Disabilities Act, the court has ordered Yash Raj Films (YRF) to add subtitles, close captioning, and Hindi audio description so that those who are deaf or blind can enjoy the movie equally on OTT platforms. Additionally, it requested that YRF submit the updated content for re-certification to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
The court requested that the producers submit the information by February 20th, according to the Bar and Bench. It also mandated that the CBFC decide by March 10th. The movie Pathaan is scheduled to open in theatres on January 25, 2023. But the court made no recommendations for how it should be screened. The judge remarked that the makers can make the corrections by April because Pathaan would reportedly be available on Prime Video by then. The court declined to 'issue any order regarding the theatrical release of Pathaan'.
The Pathaan trailer debuted on Saturday on the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, lately generated a lot of discussions. SRK and a sizable crowd were present in Dubai to see the occasion. The actor also took his trademark attitude for the crowd, leaning to one side while holding his hands in the air. He performed a few dialogues from the movie. He was also spotted performing the hook step of one of the songs from the same movie.
Pathaan is directed by Siddharth Anand. The movie also features John Abraham, Deepika Padukone, Dimple Kapadia, and Ashutosh Rana. On January 25, it will open in theatres all around the world. The movie marks Shah Rukh's comeback to the big screen after a four-year absence.
