But it is said that both are pitted against each other in this film and this would surely make for an exciting watch, considering how well audiences received War. However, Pathan is not in the zone of War and is set in a world different from the Hrithik Roshan-Tiger Shroff starrer altogether.”

But his stardom is intact and audiences are bound to come in big numbers if he does the correct film. Also, he’s secure and has shared screen space with other prominent actors in films like Happy New Year, Om Shanti Om etc. John Abraham, meanwhile, is doing very well and he, too, is secure. And with Pathan, he takes the next step of doing big-budget action films. In short, if the script and execution are spot-on, nothing can stop Pathan from becoming one of the biggest hits of recent times!”, commented a closed official working on the film, as put by Bollywood Hungama.
