Supriya Sule Says Shah Rukh And Deepika 'Look Fabulous'; Questions Politicians Who Criticize Pathaan

In a recent interview, Supriya Sule, the head of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and a current member of parliament, discussed Shah Rukh Khan and his movie Pathaan. She also mentioned Narottam Mishra, the home minister of Madhya Pradesh, who had already called for the banning of Pathaan. Supriya praised Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone saying they were "looking fabulous" in Pathaan. 'Most people were jealous of Shah Rukh Khan,' the official remarked.

Narottam Mishra vowed to have the Pathaan movie banned in Madhya Pradesh in December 2022 following the release of the Pathaan song Besharam Rang. He had taken issue with Deepika Padukone's orange swimsuit in the song. In the weeks that followed, a large number of other political figures and groups expressed their disapproval of the movie Pathaan. Since its January 25 release, the movie has shattered numerous box office records. In a YouTube interview with Unfiltered By Samdish, Supriya was asked to mimic Shah Rukh Khan. She responded, "How would I know? Shah Rukh Khan… please, he is the superstar of India. Right now I am just envious of how good he is looking in that movie (Pathaan). He and Deepika are looking (gestures feeling breathless)… They are looking fabulous! I think most people are jealous of Shah Rukh Khan..." Supriya then responded to being asked if she would defend the comments made about Pathaan by politicians such as Narottam Mishra, "Not at all, I will not defend. I will pick (up) the phone and ask 'bhaiya aap ko kya ho gaya hai (brother, what's wrong with you)?'" Supriya further added, "But the problem is that why are we even discussing such things. (Late union minister and BJP leader) Arun Jaitley used to say 'aap dikhana band kar dijiye, log bolna band kar denge (if you stop broadcasting, people will stop saying things)'. Sometimes I think Arun ji is right. It is actually irrelevant, and it become so sad because a lot of other colleagues' videos started coming out. This is not why we are here for politics. I am not defending either". The movie Pathaan is directed by Siddharth Anand. It also stars Ashutosh Rana and Dimple Kapadia. Pathaan's domestic net collections are expected to comfortably surpass 225 Cr. over the first extended weekend and 300 Cr. in a week, according to trade analysts and movie exhibitors. In just two days after its debut, YRF revealed that Pathaan brought in 200 Cr. rupees worldwide.
